The damn game knows me too well already. Read on a note on a wall:

Sturgeon's One-Point Lessons
Lesson Ten

Becoming the Champion of Life!
Learn all there is to learn in lessons one through nine...

And no matter what happens...
Do not give up, do not complain,
and do NOT stay up all night playing

So far the game is really cool. I was a bit skeptical about the animation style at first, but it's quickly grown on me. The movement is so fluid. Oh well, back to the game.
