I was playing this game for almost 10 minutes before I remembered that I need to rate it. No bugs or glitches the only thing he could add was music. The art style made it just so much more fun to play"},{"author_name":"theanprocks","author_uid":"19447","time":"Dec 17, 2012 @ 1:03pm","epoch":1355749080,"text":"Cool Game!!

Not sure if it was intended that you can not walk for a moment after you stab, but got used to that real quick. Too bad there was no sound (except for that one effect:P)"},{"author_name":"hints","author_uid":"18151","time":"Dec 17, 2012 @ 5:48pm","epoch":1355766180,"text":"Was fun for a bit, I might have missed something but the beginning is way too slow."},{"author_name":"lorancou","author_uid":"8588","time":"Dec 17, 2012 @ 5:51pm","epoch":1355766360,"text":"Nice one, just a bit repetitive.

I loved the dark graphics style. In my and, as I read, many others opinion, background music would've made it better. The bad thing, after playing it for some time, the game became boring, because you were just slaying these guys with some weapons you bought from killing them and selling their body parts. But still a nice game to play for some minutes. Good work, Alex ;)"},{"author_name":"barigorokarl","author_uid":"3036","time":"Dec 26, 2012 @ 8:31pm","epoch":1356553560,"text":"Haha! Liked this!

There didn't seem any competition, though (unless I didn't play long enough), so there wasn't any real pressure - and nobody seemed to notice people nearby getting stabbed, which may have been better for gameplay, but seemed a bit strange :)"},{"author_name":"delpes","author_uid":"8513","time":"Jan 5, 2013 @ 1:51pm","epoch":1357393560,"text":"Love it :) If you would add some more content\/competition and some music i could play this for hours ^^"}],"images":["ld25\/10489-5c085f39db71ae35b7a885758bcedb53.jpg","ld25\/10489-3c401f01c44b8250dc98e55abf43624f.jpg","ld25\/10489-11711c04706ec54a7d3ed3a87ea5ff67.jpg","ld25\/10489-489160fe3ce9438dc3e5b6dbd26811b9.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.mediafire.com\/?b837u4sr2egzd9l","text":"Windows"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.mediafire.com\/?b837u4sr2egzd9l","text":"OS\/X"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.mediafire.com\/?b837u4sr2egzd9l","text":"Linux"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.mediafire.com\/?pvi9899oc8c5kza","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"27297","g_author":"10489","g_event":"LD25","g_eventkey":"14","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"27327","g_title":"Maniac: Total Darkness","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"133","g_commentcount":"15","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/201083\/10489-shot0.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/201083\/10489-shot1.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/201083\/10489-shot2.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/201083\/10489-shot3.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Ever wanted money?\r\nWell, here is your chance to get some!\r\n\r\nIn Maniac: Total Darkness, you get to kill people and sell their body parts in the \"Evil Shop\".
