Love the gravity as well; you can create some pretty awesome orbits with it. Only thing is, levels don't have much diversity, and what's up with the 10 second time that restarts? Not sure why it's there (apart from because of the theme). So yeah. Apart from that though, really sleek game."},{"author_name":"TaleLore","author_uid":"21654","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 2:44am","epoch":1377484740,"text":"Feels really nice.

The thing with the theme is that original idea was to have 10 seconds grace period and 10 seconds state when you can die. So your job would be to sneak by. But then I got carried away like with everything I do."},{"author_name":"Rabbits...","author_uid":"11321","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 3:14am","epoch":1377486540,"text":"Loved the intro music but it got stuck on the tutorial for me."},{"author_name":"Yaguar","author_uid":"26482","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 3:21am","epoch":1377486960,"text":"Fantastic.

It's really well polished.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>It took me a while to figure out I had to get into an orbit to complete the second. Once I did that it made me realise what the possibilities were.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I'd suggest making the points where the sensors change color more obvious, have them flash in the last second or something. And at times I wasn't sure where the source for a sensor was, might be nice to have a graphic for the sensor to remove any doubt."},{"author_name":"PaidGEEK","author_uid":"10029","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 1:18pm","epoch":1377522780,"text":"Thanks all!
