You Have To Burn The Rope

PICO-8 games are getting so hard these days...
This is a port of a Flash game from Kian Bashiri called 'You Have To Burn The Rope'. It's a really hard game. You have to burn the rope there.
Here's a pretty apt description of the game, according to its original programmer:
You Have To Burn The Rope is, by formal definitions, a game since it has all the things that make up a game - besides losing condition which I regret not adding - but I wouldn't call it a game since it is hardly interactive in any meaningful way. The point was to make fun of other games that limit the player's interaction by being easy, linear, or heavily controlled and jokingly ask at which point these games also cease to be games.
If at any point you are stuck, I suggest that you check out the enclosed instruction book.
