It is, however, fun for only about a minute.. :)"},{"author_name":"Lokiman","author_uid":"16285","time":"Aug 26, 2014 @ 6:03pm","epoch":1409075880,"text":"Nice to see another first timer in Ludum Dare!

It would be even better if the challenge ramped up somehow, to at least have the speed increase.

And the theme connection is so-so..\r\rOther than those things, it's a small game that knows what its core idea is and thus executes it quite well.\r\rThe sounds are low key and I like that, and the music is quite good (reminds me of Hotline Miami). Too bad it doesn't loop. Maybe that's an oversight?\r\rThe graphics are nice too, not much to complain about there. Maybe they could change hue as the difficulty increases?"},{"author_name":"mrexcessive","author_uid":"20788","time":"Sep 2, 2014 @ 7:15am","epoch":1409641800,"text":"Hi there.
