Once you get a handle on how the gravity wells affect you, it's pretty easy to move around through them. It reminds me of the old wood & marble labyrinths I had as a kid.\r\rThe movement seemed to stutter a bit, and that made it hard to get a feel for the sweet spot between some of the more narrow passages. It also would have benefited from a run button, or something to make those long but inevitable struggles out of a well go a bit faster."},{"author_name":"Pickens Inc.","author_uid":"25346","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 6:47pm","epoch":1418150520,"text":"Challenging!

I like the level of difficulty as well - perhaps the curve is a little too steep, but a good challenge regardless. I'd say that maybe you could have not had the gravity as strong as it is in the later levels and had more complex routes instead - as level 8 onwards it starts to feel more awkward to control. All in all, a nice challenging unique game, and I'm interested to see how well it plays on android."},{"author_name":"Jacksendary","author_uid":"29674","time":"Dec 11, 2014 @ 8:00pm","epoch":1418327700,"text":"Nice game, would possibly be funnier to play on a tablet tho :)"},{"author_name":"lxd1","author_uid":"34792","time":"Dec 18, 2014 @ 11:55pm","epoch":1418946600,"text":"Fun"},{"author_name":"Tangible Games","author_uid":"25746","time":"Dec 23, 2014 @ 8:41pm","epoch":1419366960,"text":"Extremely difficult!
