Glad you guys like it! :)\r\rI couldn't think of what to do with "An Unconventional Weapon", but I wanted to participate very badly, so I just let my imagination run wild.\r\rAnd thanks to chaosed0 for pointing that out, I've fixed the score not resetting, sorry about that. \r\rAnd yeah, I did the audio when there was only 1 hour left.

I think it's nice for 12 hours, especially for a first try (and you did another project). There are a few things that could improve the game, like having some enemies that could cool you down, or getting an extra bonus for steaming several enemies at once (which can, effectively, boost your survival chances). Keep it up, next time it'll be even better."},{"author_name":"ranmaru90","author_uid":"21122","time":"Apr 24, 2015 @ 1:38pm","epoch":1429882380,"text":"Thanks for the comments everybody. They're certainly motivating! \r\rtummyache : Thanks! :D Sorry about the audio, it was done in the last hour. :( I just fired up Audacity and squeaked and meowed.\r\rpvwradtke : Thanks! They're not really particle effects. I made a set of randomized polygons in Inkscape, brought them over into Unity and put them in an array, and randomly picked one to shoot out at a time. Of course, I also scaled and change the alpha for each image over time.
