I love the side vs front mechanic and how you have to make that lane decision VERY quickly. It can be pretty intense!\r\rBonus minimalism points for the 2 color graphics and narrow playfield (I did the same thing with my entry)."},{"author_name":"My Milked Eek","author_uid":"7229","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 8:38am","epoch":1367310780,"text":"Great game.

At first I was playing it like a survival game, which was satisfying in its own right, but once I discovered the ability to destroy the obstacles, it really impressed. The game is beautiful and constrained in really interesting ways. Great application of the theme."},{"author_name":"niun","author_uid":"23116","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 8:38am","epoch":1367310780,"text":"GAH! Can't.... Stop....
