However, the music drove me freaking nuts. Not sure why exactly but I found it irritating beyond belief. Nice game other than that."},{"author_name":"robcozzens","author_uid":"10944","time":"Apr 29, 2013 @ 6:01am","epoch":1367214960,"text":"That is really good.

The collision effects are very satisfying. I found the music got a little annoying after a while, but wasn't a big problem.

Good job overall!\r\rAlso, very nice logo, heh."},{"author_name":"amijlee","author_uid":"18915","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 4:50am","epoch":1367297100,"text":"Neat, I like the effect when the bar hits the walls.

Levels were probably right about the difficulty they should be, but christ was level 6 annoying. The final level was actually pretty awesome once you mastered it, I felt like I was doing some kind of crazy kung fu training. "Be like the wind." It felt like dancing or something. Interesting how such a simple mechanic can express so much, minimalism to a T.\r\rBeat all 7 levels, I know you have a "high score" table, but I'm not sure how much replay value there really is. Maybe if there were time-trials\/challenge mode, I dunno http:\/\/imgur.com\/Rfsa8SJ But I can't really complain for 48 hours. Well done, sir."},{"author_name":"TenTonToon","author_uid":"11273","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 6:07am","epoch":1367301720,"text":"Very interesting concept, and also well executed.
