Spikes (and maybe Ice floors to earn more time to shoot) are the only items worth making.\r<br\/>- The sprites for traps are a quite small, a colored aura or an icon below them would make it more comfortable for the player to distinguish the traps and their types in a glance.\r<br\/>- Be proud of your pixel art :D"},{"author_name":"GeorgeBroussard","author_uid":"8631","time":"Dec 19, 2012 @ 11:36am","epoch":1355916660,"text":"Liked this a lot.
