I like how you used sound to create direction for the player and the low view distance made it tense and suspenseful. Also, having almost max limp suuuucks haha! The game would benefit greatly with some completed art, otherwise great job!"},{"author_name":"Erkberg","author_uid":"24534","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 12:35am","epoch":1377563400,"text":"Nice game.
