I think the controls could use some work - alternating between down, up, space feels a little clunky still and I got hit a few times when I had intended to charge the beam. I liked the background music, it's very relaxed, but the sound effects are a bit typical. But pretty original overall, so good work!"},{"author_name":"ovenchips","author_uid":"19236","time":"May 3, 2013 @ 4:05pm","epoch":1367596800,"text":"Good concept. Music was very nice indeed. Controls were slightly fiddly - I kept jumping instead of aiming. I'm giving extra marks for the potato reference. :)  Well done!!"},{"author_name":"SecondDimension","author_uid":"14838","time":"May 3, 2013 @ 9:14pm","epoch":1367615340,"text":"We agree about the controls, they are a bit of a pain.
