Sometimes you can clear a round with no problem, but the majority of times have rounds that felt impossible to clear. The dimension changing bit is pretty cool, but there needs to be some way to generate the levels accordingly.\r\rFYI, it's rather unfriendly to have no way to readjust the game's window resolution, especially since it's quite higher than average. Be courteous, even for those from the 90s!"},{"author_name":"ericdpitts","author_uid":"6759","time":"Sep 2, 2014 @ 12:16pm","epoch":1409659860,"text":"Really awesome idea, I liked it a lot.
