I do agree the player moves slow in the game, when playtesting was feeling like a chore I should have sped it up. Oh well!"},{"author_name":"randoman","author_uid":"13710","time":"May 5, 2014 @ 3:26pm","epoch":1399303260,"text":"When I saw the instructions on the screen I though the game would be a little hard to control, but it was very smooth! It was very intuitive which is good. Congrats! Now a bug report: on the second level I was standing below a guy and pressed F without pressing W, the sound of eating came out but no animation. I did it a few times and when I finally did it right I won the level. Seems like it counted the same guy several times."}],"images":["ld29\/20438-9c49afac9df97fa5e256e7d07b198b03.jpg","ld29\/20438-a233461e2bc565adf1b1abbf0355561e.jpg","ld29\/20438-24c63ed3fe19019a19b4b0239288d9aa.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/dl.dropboxusercontent.com\/u\/164344395\/LudumDare29_TheColorMan\/index.html","text":"Web (Please use Chrome)"},{"url":"https:\/\/dl.dropboxusercontent.com\/u\/164344395\/LudumDare29_TheColorMan_Source.zip","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"20066","g_author":"20438","g_event":"LD29","g_eventkey":"22","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"20095","g_title":"The Creature of the Depths Must Feed his Sheep","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"812","g_commentcount":"13","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/342546\/20438-shot0.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/342546\/20438-shot1.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/342546\/20438-shot2.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Please play this on Google Chrome!
