I enjoyed it and I think with a bit more work it could be a really fun game. Here's a few thoughts:\r<br\/>\r<br\/>* I sometimes got &quot;combos&quot; but it wasn't clear what they did for me.\r<br\/>* It would be neat if the attackers came at different rates -- in waves and lulls, basically -- which would give a natural cycle for reloading. Maybe this would make it too easy, though?\r<br\/>* I want to get more bullets for collecting large numbers of circles.\r<br\/>* As it is, the circles game is just &quot;spot it,&quot; there's no real puzzle element. This is fine, but if you want it to have puzzle-ishness you should do that.\r<br\/>* The theme is a bit disjointed, but that's actually fine.\r<br\/>* The graphics are simple, but I like them anyway.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Might be better played with a touchscreen? Or maybe with two mice, one for shooting one for loading. Anyway, it's a fun game and there's a lot of cool places you could take it."},{"author_name":"fcpfoof","author_uid":"28932","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 8:24am","epoch":1408954740,"text":"Very interesting idea!
