The use of theme was also pretty interesting and I haven't seen much like it.\rI wasn't clear on how scoring worked. I noticed that I was getting labels like 'glitchy', 'amazing', and 'awesome' but even after playing four times I can't figure out what makes a score amazing. Is it the size of the connection? Is it the two-color connection? Do I have to hit it at a certain angle? I couldn't really tell, and it would be nice to have an explanation of how to maximize my points. A minor note, the numbers that came with the text were a bit too small and fast to read so I wasn't sure how much the point value changed either.\rIt seems like if I head off in one direction I eventually reach a vast empty space with occasionally one person in it. It would be ideal if it could stop me, or wrap around the screen, or even just spawn more people out in the distance.\rOne more thing, the level music ends pretty suddenly, it would be nice if it had a sort of lead up to the ending so I could tell without looking at the timer that I was getting close to the end.\r\rI hope that feedback was helpful! I had fun playing your game and I hope to see more that you make in the future."},{"author_name":"ChuiGum","author_uid":"22408","time":"Aug 28, 2014 @ 5:42am","epoch":1409204220,"text":"Love the graphics!

Satisfying to move through a huge mass of connections :) Like KevinZuhn, I was a little unclear what was affecting my score. Leaving it for the player to learn is great, but a little help wouldn't hurt ;) \r\rI had some problems losing input at the end of a round using the webplayer, which is probably more a plugin issue than anything, but meant that I couldn't change the name in the scores and that I'd have to refresh the page in order to play again.\r\rGreat entry overall :)"},{"author_name":"Once Upon a Team","author_uid":"27111","time":"Aug 28, 2014 @ 11:02am","epoch":1409223420,"text":"We will discuss and we may change our how to play menu to give you some tips guys :)\r\rAbout your problem, maybe it is because of the 'enter name' box : that's not the optimal way to do it, but we wanted that highscore leaderboard.
