I think the game was overall a little dark (I found it hard to see my guy sometimes). The ledge\/wall climbing was a pretty neat feature."},{"author_name":"rabbit","author_uid":"26967","time":"Dec 8, 2014 @ 10:56pm","epoch":1418079060,"text":"I cant see anything, I dont know why Im collecting stuff, guys can see me through walls?"},{"author_name":"Geckoo1337","author_uid":"35835","time":"Dec 8, 2014 @ 10:58pm","epoch":1418079180,"text":"I like the gameplay and the graphics, but the game felt overly difficult and I can't pass through the fist ennemies.

Maybe it should be a brighter color or something to stand out.  Love the simple rectangle characters.  It's fun to play but it needs audio to bring it to life.  Great jam game and suits the theme very well.
