I started it again and just started interacting with all the bounded squares... which generated terrain and allowed me to continue on for a little bit... but then I couldn't find anything else to toggle more terrain. I think it would benefit a lot from some in-game instructions... something I learned fast and something I suffer from a lot is: "You can have the best game ever made, but if people don't know how to play it within 30 seconds of starting it, they're gonna give up." People are impatient nowadays :P\r\rCongrats on finishing your first game on time! May there be many more to follow. I see potential for this, I just didn't know what to do with it."},{"author_name":"TheGeekatory","author_uid":"19124","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 11:40pm","epoch":1409009700,"text":"Hi there! Thanks for the kind words!\rI'll admit I slacked off a lot during this LD, and didn't polish the game as much I might have wanted to.

Interacting with things in certain levels will affect other levels (connected worlds).\r\n\r\nI hope you like it!\r\n\r\nThe game was written in C++ with SFML and libnoise.
