Great job! :)"},{"author_name":"tmpxyz","author_uid":"39382","time":"Apr 21, 2015 @ 5:49am","epoch":1429595040,"text":"very interesting topic"},{"author_name":"Kaijuu","author_uid":"46066","time":"Apr 21, 2015 @ 7:34am","epoch":1429601340,"text":"Cool idea!

For some reason I thought the atmosphere fit the concept even though you could've picked any color for it.

You stuck to the theme very well too.\r\rOne thing I did notice is that sometimes I would jump lines too quickly, which might just be based on my keyboard being very fast. Future polish might warrant an input throttle. Otherwise, very fun!"},{"author_name":"Mathieu Muller","author_uid":"40544","time":"Apr 22, 2015 @ 11:25am","epoch":1429701600,"text":"Nice game.

Also I definitely could see it as a mobile game with some controls tweaking (without abandoning the Frogger "on-rails" style, I think it suits perfectly well). Overall very enjoyable and polished, congratulations for this entry!"},{"author_name":"Zanzlanz","author_uid":"11407","time":"Apr 24, 2015 @ 3:17pm","epoch":1429888320,"text":"Ah wow, this is really well done - it feels like something I'd have played all day in grade school!

It's a cool representation of the concept. I didn't realize at first that you sort of have to choose the right blue bits to grab, the ones that match the target. That wasn't exactly clear in the instructions. The gameplay feels pretty solid. It's a little odd that you only get one 'life', though.
