One thing I noticed about this is that its animations are very eye catching, although the art needs some work. I really like how the music becomes more intense as you go down, so that when you die and go back to the top it impacts the feel of the game."},{"author_name":"mutuware","author_uid":"14635","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 10:42am","epoch":1408963020,"text":"Yeah, the poster is probably a bit misleading!  \r<br\/>Kinda ran out of time with the graphics in the game.\r<br\/>Used Spriter for the 1st time for animations, still a few bugs."},{"author_name":"Anshzinc","author_uid":"40540","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 11:38am","epoch":1408966380,"text":"Those devilish dogs keep killing me, haha.

I liked the titles of the levels and I liked how the bullets spray and create dust when hitting walls. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>I didn't expect the dogs at all. They were really hard to beat. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>The music was really cool and the rhythm increasing as you descend further was a cool feature. I liked the upgrades and I was glad that I could &quot;skip levels&quot; by just jumping into the holes for when I died. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>All in all, very good game and well done (the gun looked cool too) XD"},{"author_name":"PaperBlurt","author_uid":"26530","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 3:57pm","epoch":1408981920,"text":"I Like the poster and the psychedelic feel.\r<br\/>Very Divine Comedy!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Good!"},{"author_name":"TowelKing","author_uid":"36784","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 5:20pm","epoch":1408986900,"text":"Those devil dogs are creepy."},{"author_name":"RegularSlinky","author_uid":"40173","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 7:16pm","epoch":1408993860,"text":"needs more screen shake. lol"},{"author_name":"idovingx","author_uid":"35256","time":"Aug 26, 2014 @ 12:47am","epoch":1409013720,"text":"Damn hell dogs..."},{"author_name":"Zigsfi","author_uid":"39440","time":"Aug 26, 2014 @ 1:08am","epoch":1409014980,"text":"Very unsettling.

Thoughts I had while playing.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I wish there were some more polished graphics to go with the nicely tweened animation.  \r<br\/>The theme was a bit shoe-horned in.\r<br\/>The enemies definitely need some better AI.  \r<br\/>I couldn't figure out how to get the collectables on stage 6.  \r<br\/>Even though it was probably unintentional, I liked how the dog head would pop out on Level 8.
