This story has potential, but it's not engaging. Firstly, the poetry form it's written in makes it harder to get into simply because of the way the words are used. Second, there is no flesh- not much background at all.

What's good is how you have to find a way to get everything (though it isn't hard) and that your grammar is good, and you have good poetry writing skills. You have plot and purpose, conflict and action (the amount could be debated).

Sadly, while I respect the poetry form and think it's brilliant, the way the storygame is written is just not engaging at all. Also, it's pretty linear. (I think) the only ending is leaving and getting to Earth.

I like this because it is original but you must be careful not to make it too challenging; after the first dozen bizarre stanzas I started to switch off mentally as I have the attention span of a goldfish with a serious head injury when I'm puzzled. You are very good at crafting a mysterious and unique world but at the same time if the only information we receive is enigmatic it might baffle the general reader. Overall though another great and genuinely artistic tale.

"Air
The Wanderer stepped through the gate and saw what laid beyond.

There was nothing. No trees, no rocks, just a vast expanse of nothing.

Nothing except for a man, that is.

The Wanderer recognized this man from somewhere, though he could not quite remember from where. The man walked towards The Wanderer and said:

"You are from here. You know this as I do. We are very similar, you and I. I believe we will be very good friends."

Then the man disappeared, and The Wanderer became lost in never-ending stars.

Good Ending
You received the GOOD Ending. This means that you received a score of 2/3, and received some of the end game information. Replay the game to get a better ending!"

This is a very difficult game, found 3/4 endings (including the bad ending of stuck on Earth). Yet to search for the best ending.

You received the NOT GREAT Ending. This means that you received a score of 1/3, and received only a fraction of the end game information. Replay the game to get a better ending!

Well this game is hard and I need a walk-through on how to obtain the blood of an innocent?

I've tried and tried, however for some reason I just can't get into this story. It's hard because the authour has clearly put a lot of effort in, but it just doesn't engage me and I'm not sure why.

At first, I was actually excited to play this, considering it was (sort of) a sequel to Empty Space (one of the best recent stories) and then I played it... Well, it was pretty damn boring. This could have been an amazing story, but it's really boring.

I read the first few pages, but after that I just wanted to finish the game. It was so boring, and didn't make much sense. I know you spent time on this, but it sucked.
