I like the pun &quot;beneath the SURFACE,&quot; though, that was very clever. The controls felt a bit stiff, and the collisions were not very likable, as many times I'd die on the corner of something that I did not think I was hitting. 7\/10"},{"author_name":"zinfandel","author_uid":"21063","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 2:02pm","epoch":1398693420,"text":"Hehe... I also thought to make it about the Surface. Like the visuals, great colors. But I couldn't hit stuff, it felt random. So yeah, the controls need more work."},{"author_name":"Boodog","author_uid":"27333","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 2:05pm","epoch":1398693600,"text":"The controls + collision weren't too good, but other than that this is awesome!"},{"author_name":"Otter207","author_uid":"35193","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 2:09pm","epoch":1398693840,"text":"Thanks for the comments guys!
