I found it challenging but I always felt that it was my fault, not the game's, so that's good. Definitely work on a post-compo version to improve the graphics and sound - also add a &quot;quit&quot; button for those of us not using a web player :) Otherwise, fantastic entry!"},{"author_name":"rantt","author_uid":"41103","time":"Apr 20, 2015 @ 5:09pm","epoch":1429549440,"text":"Fun game.

It's not immediately obvious that there's no win condition because of the room's shape; I wish the game made it more clear that this was an arcade game. Maybe a high score function would help? (Actually, I should add one in my game too, lol)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>So, in conclusion, what it lacks in graphics or unique gameplay it makes up for with humor. A nice entry, as always. :0)"},{"author_name":"HotBoxGames","author_uid":"39707","time":"Apr 21, 2015 @ 5:40pm","epoch":1429637700,"text":"Damn, those flakes must be lethal!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Love the style, sounds and music.

It's ironic that the CRAPI suits' one weakness would be the same thing they're dedicated to sugar-coating... cereal.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Gameplay-wise I would've liked a key mapped for quick retries. I died a lot at the start, and since this game is played with the keyboard it was a bit uncomfortable to move to my touchpad each time I had to restart. The rest of the gameplay was short but sweet (rimshot)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I agree with the earlier opinion that the jumping physics made the game feel a little cramped vertically. Speaking of; I think the game might be improved by navigating three floors rather than two. This would give the player some more choices (and more opportunities to screw themselves over!)"},{"author_name":"NuvlearGames","author_uid":"36219","time":"May 5, 2015 @ 11:49am","epoch":1430826240,"text":"The graphics were definitely a bit sub-par but I cant judge too much on that, the music was enjoyable though.
