I'm very impressed. The only issue I have is that the game seems to be sorely lacking in mechanics beyond the one present. I kept hoping to at least see torches being placed across a gap from where the player can access, or some place to reflect shots off of. Still, the polish wins over my vote."},{"author_name":"baboum","author_uid":"35626","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 12:09pm","epoch":1398773040,"text":"So the game never ends, does it? I really like the mood, it plays very smoothly (but I struggled with my azerty keyboard), and music&amp;graphics are perfect. Like the comments above me, it would have been nice to see game mechanics evolve through time, but what you did is already pretty impressive! Good job!"},{"author_name":"KeyMaster","author_uid":"30626","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 6:28pm","epoch":1398795780,"text":"Incredible sound, graphics and atmosphere!

Would be a great exploration-focused game if there was more to see and do. The dash mechanic stopping your momentum is a pain, it would have made movement more fluid if it didn't do that."},{"author_name":"Incredible Ape","author_uid":"12165","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 6:55pm","epoch":1398797400,"text":"@stvr: You're supposed to be in ruins inside deep oceanic cave, descending.
