This game looked really awesome, but I could never even activate the first mine without dying and watching the whole intro over and over was really tedious. Graphics are great, polish was great. Maybe I'll come back and try again.

Hi there. Lovely graphics, shame no sound.

The game looked really nice and had a cohesive style. The only issue I had with it was the long waiting time before I could play the game again - it had to go through the opening title every time... which was slightly infuriating as I wanted to get back to the fun gameplay!

I went ahead and addressed the soul-killing tedium of the GUI sequencing :)

Loved the audio and visuals of the game :)
Interesting risk/reward system where you get more points for close calls, as well as scrambling for the correct key on the wrong side of the keyboard, because my right hand was navigating with the mouse.

It looks really good and I'm totally comform with snoozbuster. I had a really hard time to use the mines and every time I died there was this long intro. But all in all awesome game.

Looks great, plays well, sounds awesome. Great overall. If I were to nitpick, I wish there was a quicker way to retry.

200k points high-score. Couldn't get the 100% test progress.

Very nice job. The game feels very polished and fair, and finding the keys on the keyboard while running away from the antagonists was rather fun (but very hard).

This is a very fun game. I only wish I didn't have to wait so long to play again after I die. Everything else is great, the graphics and audio are all very well done.

Beautiful. I love the look and feel of it. Very, very difficult, at least for me.

The style and presentation is amazing. Great job being consistent with your style and setting an amazing mood. The gameplay reminded me a lot of Sounddodger. I was unable to detonate the mines, and like others have said having to watch the intro again to get back into gameplay is a little tedious.

Looks and plays great! I agree with the other commenters that it takes too long to restart after dying but it pretty much seems perfect aside from that.

Great job!
I tried to get more points, then you, but it really impossible! Great work with graphic and music. Gameplay is very addictive.

Solid, fast-paced and intense gameplay, really cool. Sound, graphics are almost ideal. It's difficult, which is good, but restart sequance is too long, would've done it shorter since you die a lot

Need some sound to match the great visual style you have!

That was really fun, and there was an incredible amount of polish! I only wish that the difficulty ramped up just a tiny bit slower.

edit:
I came back and played again, this time there was audio (not sure what was wrong last time)
Really great, I still haven't managed to get to 100% though!
