I think there was a bit too much on the screen to manage everything (I played with keyboard), maybe if the people moved slower or if there were less people. I did like the bouncing back and forth mechanic, maybe focus on that for something to move forward with? overall I liked the concept!"},{"author_name":"ninjascript","author_uid":"35875","time":"Aug 27, 2014 @ 6:00am","epoch":1409118900,"text":"Looks fabulous, extremely tough to play.
