Like the &quot;concept-y&quot; style of the graphics. Couldn't really figure out how to properly play the game, though. If I randomly press &quot;A&quot; or &quot;D&quot; after the countdown, I randomly. No matter what I did, couldn't get fights to last more than a split second. Most of the time the game was counting down. After the second character was added, couldn't score a win anymore. Think with some tweaking that results in longer fights, this could be really great."},{"author_name":"Miziziziz","author_uid":"41803","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 10:46pm","epoch":1418164860,"text":"thanks for the compliments\r<br\/>@voidqk this setup for the controls was the most comfortable that would allow two people to use the keyboard\r<br\/>@ Rene Damm\r<br\/>the battle begins as soon as 'Fight!' is displayed; were you attacking then or waiting until that dissapeared"},{"author_name":"Lynx","author_uid":"44477","time":"Dec 10, 2014 @ 4:00am","epoch":1418183700,"text":"Wonderful game, music, and concept... a bit hard to tell what's all going on without audio or visual feedback (but then again I'm just as guilty with my game...)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Loving me some hand drawn\/inked art and banjo!"},{"author_name":"Leaghorn","author_uid":"45380","time":"Dec 10, 2014 @ 5:04am","epoch":1418187540,"text":"Hard to figure out how to play properly but very nice visuals."},{"author_name":"jpcote","author_uid":"17454","time":"Dec 10, 2014 @ 5:50am","epoch":1418190300,"text":"Nice art!"},{"author_name":"NeithR","author_uid":"35366","time":"Dec 10, 2014 @ 8:42am","epoch":1418200620,"text":"Nice simple game with great graphics ;)."},{"author_name":"Alendro","author_uid":"39494","time":"Dec 11, 2014 @ 3:31am","epoch":1418268360,"text":"Very interesting art style.
