Very nice twist.

Interesting mechanic, nice sensory descriptions. Listening through all the songs, you've made clever use of them, turning Veggietales into a sci-fi tragedy. I struggled a bit to keep track of everything so I was grateful for the hints (not sure I could've figured out yoghurt & chicken). I like the idea of the keywords as clues but I think they might need to be a bit more obvious. (Or maybe talking to Rebecca could hint what to do next?)

Really cool interface and story. 
It took me a minute to see how you used the song lyrics. I did find a few minor bugs but nothing really serious.

Nice game! I hope you keep it up.

This was super interesting and a great way to kick off the rating for me. I really loved the setting of the game and the ideas in the worldbuilding.

I'm really not sure of the engine used here - I wanted to go deeper on the smelling mechanic rather than it being a second examine (and of course the narrative mechanic).

In playing I found the ending very abrupt and without a "The End" I wonder if I bugged or just didn't find the solution to that section - I am prone to missing obvious spots when I lawnmower.

Thank you for playing! There was actually a game-breaking bug in the version initially released. I've just uploaded a version with a fix. I don't expect anyone to replay, but that would have been the reason you were unable to proceed.

I'll check it out!
