The game is played with WSAD  but the arrow keys were still enabled which doesn't work properly.

Nice job on the cool down after shooting. I hope you keep working on this."},{"author_name":"Delca","author_uid":"24934","time":"May 1, 2014 @ 3:08pm","epoch":1398956580,"text":"Really fun game! I encountered a bug in the second level: the enemies did not want to approach the treasure and jumped back up each time they got down to the last 3 blocks.\r<br\/>Though you said it was too ambitious, the only downside I can really think of is the lack of sound. You did great!"},{"author_name":"Cirrial","author_uid":"1620","time":"May 1, 2014 @ 4:04pm","epoch":1398959940,"text":"Fun game concept!

The sprites were great and the reloading animation made me chuckle. The concept was good but the implementation was a bit lacking. Really needs the audio and polished graphics with more animations.
