I'm a huge fan of Binding of Isaac and I really appreciated the references (gameplay as well as graphics). I also like the fact that you gave this game your own &quot;touch&quot;. The gameplay is original.\r<br\/>Two thumbs up !"},{"author_name":"bowlercaptain","author_uid":"14337","time":"May 1, 2013 @ 1:02am","epoch":1367369820,"text":"... ew. Nicely done graphics and game play, but (and this is personal preference) the art style kind of turned me off. Audio was slightly annoying.

Great idea about using speed to defeat enemies (and reduce control input). Also, the B&amp;W art remembers me the old days of the Speccy.
