I love what you were going for with the graphical style, and the simple play was nice as well. I even chuckled at the LD reference in the game itself. To be honest, though, I was a bit put off by the morose conclusion. Some techno-orchestral ambiance would have been epic as well. Well done overall!"},{"author_name":"Kitch","author_uid":"7470","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 3:29am","epoch":1367292240,"text":"the art style is fantastic, very fitting."},{"author_name":"Topaz","author_uid":"10594","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 3:33am","epoch":1367292480,"text":"Graphics look nice."},{"author_name":"BigBlackBeard","author_uid":"20640","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 4:32am","epoch":1367296020,"text":"Innovating game !

The cube controlled well and was fun to move around. I wish the text would have stayed on the screen a bit longer though. This could have been a lot better with some audio (and it was already pretty good). Also, your ending conflicts with the message of following your dreams. I was on board with everything until that kind of came out of nowhere. Otherwise solid entry."},{"author_name":"ddionisio","author_uid":"17724","time":"May 1, 2013 @ 5:03pm","epoch":1367427480,"text":"I hate to say this but, &quot;See all the cats in the internet&quot; is an impossible task.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Really symbolic game, I love it!

I had this whole concept of audio and music I wanted to add to the game, but simply ran out of time to get it in there. (I ended up crunching the bulk of this on Sunday and wasn't able to touch it Monday at all). I've been chatting however with the audio developer of my company and he really wants to do a soundtrack for it. I think we'll see an improved \/ polished build of this game at some point, with a full soundtrack. :)"},{"author_name":"Komradus","author_uid":"11076","time":"May 2, 2013 @ 12:54am","epoch":1367455740,"text":"Well that escalated quickly.
