(posting under Solifuge's account) \r<br\/>\r<br\/>I had a lot of fun, though I actually wasn't able to hear anything. The reloading harpoons mechanic is really nice! One thing you might work on is putting the game in a window rather than fullscreen (it'll help the low-res graphics look better) and adapting the level design a bit to give the players more time to learn the game before throwing quite so many sea creatures at you.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Otherwise, it was a tense, fun experience for me. Thanks!"},{"author_name":"ruerob","author_uid":"36728","time":"Apr 30, 2014 @ 8:58am","epoch":1398847980,"text":"If this game would be polished a little bit it could be very good.

You've also got an awesome mechanic with the reloading, and I love that the game has one goal: kill Moby riDickulous.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Unfortunately, losing money when you get hit makes it a bit impossible to afford the nuclear harpoon. Fix that and you've got an awesome, salty game on your hands."},{"author_name":"mimic","author_uid":"34130","time":"Apr 30, 2014 @ 11:09pm","epoch":1398899040,"text":"Pretty fun game.
