It gets repetitive after a while. Still, there's an elegance to this game that some people, such as myself, just can't seem to muster. No levels. Minimal text. Only one type of enemy, randomly spawned until the player dies. In the end, a game doesn't need to be more complicated than that."},{"author_name":"BoyWithStick","author_uid":"48647","time":"Apr 22, 2015 @ 3:03am","epoch":1429671480,"text":"When I downloaded the windows version, I only got a fast moving character and nothing else.  Not sure what was going on there, but I switch to the WebGL version and everything was great.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I like the idea of only temporarily stalling your enemies and how that works with avoidance and scoring points.  Once you run out of *goo*, it was challenging avoiding all the enemies to get to a geyser.  I got 255 points.  It was fun to play!  Nice job!"},{"author_name":"MGhareeb32","author_uid":"52528","time":"Apr 22, 2015 @ 7:49am","epoch":1429688640,"text":"Awesome concept!

I didn't find it particularly satisfying to attack enemies only to have them freeze in place or disappear at random. I would have thought with a sword, I'd be able to actually kill them. Especially since it seemed like the enemies still hurt you while they were frozen! The Goo Sword is a fantastic idea, and I'd like to see this sort of thing as a Zelda-esque adventure game where you harness the powers of goo to defeat evil. As a survival game, I just wasn't feeling it, sorry to say."},{"author_name":"lucidsheep","author_uid":"41822","time":"Apr 23, 2015 @ 1:04am","epoch":1429750740,"text":"nice animations!"},{"author_name":"Archonthewizard","author_uid":"52352","time":"Apr 24, 2015 @ 11:59pm","epoch":1429919640,"text":"Fun little game.
