I was also looking at incorporating Mondrian, but in the end couldn't make it work.\rSince I needed to restart quite a few times, maybe put the restart button under the critic. I know I know, it makes the critic less annoying, which is the whole purpose!\rAnyway, good idea."},{"author_name":"unclechristmas","author_uid":"12116","time":"Apr 28, 2013 @ 11:48pm","epoch":1367192580,"text":"Those art critics are hilarious, but I had no idea what to do."},{"author_name":"zerebruin","author_uid":"18208","time":"Apr 29, 2013 @ 11:05am","epoch":1367233200,"text":"Fantastic!

Maybe that's the point? Modern art is all subjective bullshit, man!\r\rActually it would be hilarious if the critic just randomly picked players to like."},{"author_name":"Infin8","author_uid":"4643","time":"Apr 29, 2013 @ 11:16am","epoch":1367233860,"text":"Nice concept, though the combination of timing, bouncing and rotating cursor really gives a headache. I continued playing at first, when I'd alr lost.\r\rAlso troll art critic is hilarious and misleading."},{"author_name":"timtipgames","author_uid":"15341","time":"Apr 29, 2013 @ 11:16am","epoch":1367233860,"text":"Those comments are just hilarious. Together with the sounds it was really fun to play. Unfortunately the gameplay itself isn't really exciting to me because one needs to wait a lot and there's not much control. Nevertheless I love the idea to have a virtual character comment on your art. If the gameplay was somehow more interesting it would be even a better entry than it already is."},{"author_name":"DaveDobson","author_uid":"10977","time":"Apr 29, 2013 @ 1:06pm","epoch":1367240460,"text":"Very cool - it took me a while to get a hang of the controls -- er, control. I did like that there was some tolerance for missing. Very clever gameplay - I haven't seen anything like this before.

Finally figured out you have to wait for the guy to move for it to register.\r\rCool idea but really hard, for a lot of reasons. The controls are so unforgiving, you have to hit it just right.
