It's a nice touch. I wish the game felt less arbitrary and gave me more positive feedback than just printing my number of flowers. If I could sometimes earn my own bombs or something that'd be cool. Obviously it's hard to get everything done you want in 48 hours and I know my game has a lot of features missing that I wanted, but that is my two cents."},{"author_name":"ParaPup","author_uid":"18322","time":"Dec 17, 2012 @ 2:42pm","epoch":1355755020,"text":"Nice Trolling &gt;.&lt; this was a pretty good game"},{"author_name":"BlockBrains","author_uid":"17970","time":"Dec 17, 2012 @ 6:23pm","epoch":1355768280,"text":"Cool art! :)"},{"author_name":"Oreganik","author_uid":"12485","time":"Dec 18, 2012 @ 5:37am","epoch":1355808720,"text":"Got to 69 flowers, felt like a good stopping point! Overall, this game has great potential on every front: aesthetics, controls, sound, rules, etc. I think the only thing holding it back is the randomly generated field. If the unicorn reacted predictably (and he might, I don't know!) and each level was a certain field configuration, I could see a long shelf life for the game. Great work!"},{"author_name":"Radiatoryang","author_uid":"4369","time":"Dec 18, 2012 @ 5:39am","epoch":1355808840,"text":"gorgeous art... didn't really know understand the &quot;big flowers&quot; killing me though, and the lack of info about unicorn behavior means I just end up staying safely away -- not really sure what other strategies I could've used?"},{"author_name":"DaGamesta","author_uid":"18923","time":"Dec 18, 2012 @ 5:42am","epoch":1355809020,"text":"Nice game, sweet and simple.  I was dissatisfied with the fact that I couldn't be the unicorn and stomp out all of the flowers, but it was well designed nonetheless.  Very crisp feeling, no bugs, I like it.
