I had the most interesting mix of satisfaction and remorse when people's cars blew up. Then laughed when I found out the "seats ground to a hault" or the "wipers exploded". These are some seriously crappy cars!\r\rI like the graphics but some variety in the people, like the cars are, would be nice! Audio is also a little too simplistic for my tastes. \r\rMy only gameplay complaint is there is a lot of arbitrary numbers to remember, I think it would be better if the numbers are on the screen at all time, since the real gameplay is in deciding whether or not to give them a decent car or go for the profit."},{"author_name":"lukepilgrim","author_uid":"35160","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 4:18pm","epoch":1440519180,"text":"not much gameplay, but it was fun to play :)could use a little more sounds"},{"author_name":"dos","author_uid":"52499","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 10:52pm","epoch":1440542820,"text":"I am the monster."},{"author_name":"BtheDestroyer","author_uid":"46490","time":"Aug 26, 2015 @ 12:01am","epoch":1440546960,"text":"Not bad!
