Not a bad effort...

This reminds me of the old "Sokoban" games (help the burglar get the bags of money by pushing them out to the exit one by one, so on, so on).

Because the toon has to move in a diagonal direction pretty much all of the time i would have a suggestion to improve gameplay:

Get your keypad and use 7, 9, 1 and 3 to move the character around instead of the arrow keys. It's a minor change to code for the better. It'll confuse a lot less players and it'll be something different from using the same old arrow keys to move around.

Thanks, I'll add that to my list of improvements :)

Sorry...

But this doesn't make the cut as a game. Sure, i understand what it's supposed to be, But all you have in there is three switches that turn music samples on and off. It's rather boring since once you do that there's nothing to it. The buttons haven't got much of a design either, making your presentation graphically unappealing. The buttons should've been bigger and this submission should've been overall more fun.

Add more to it and try resubmitting it again.

By saying this doesn't cut it as a game, you are also saying that you *don't* understand what it's supposed to be. I hate to sound like an overly defensive ass, but this is NOT A GAME. It does not have goals you can achieve, nor does it present any sort of challenge. NOT a game.
It's a song, somewhat randomly generated, and infinite in duration. I made it like this because the traditional compact disc form of presenting music doesn't allow for infinite songs.
I would argue that songs aren't necessarily made to be "fun", but a different kind of enjoyment. Would you describe an album as "fun", and does an album have to be fun to be good? I suppose all of this should have been made clearer in the description.

A utility rather than a cartoon or a game.

Sounds original enough to me. I'd say you covered every point as extensively as you could. Looks like you left no secret covered up by the time i was done reading the whole lot. Well made, but the graphics could do with a bit more styling. The layout is way too similar to the standard Newgrounds layout. Perhaps you should've made buttons and transitions from one chapter to the other all more interesting. You risk boring the users, otherwise it's a pretty informative piece of work and it should be taken into consideration by everyone. Even those who know all there is to know about the Newgrounds system.

Keep it up and i'm looking forward to seeing "Madness Elimination". If all goes well you'll be in direct competition with Krinkels. But you know that, don't you?

See ya!
