The moving platforms, though... I've always hated waiting for moving platforms.

I nearly broke my space bar rapid firing my floppy disks :D The idea is lovely.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The toaster move at nearly the same speed of your computer when jumping, which is really annoying, since jump over them, is nearly impossible.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>And in 2nd stage, the vacuum cleaners shoot at you off screen! This is kinda unfair, but as they don't do much damage, it just made by space bar gets more damaged as I kept shooting non-stop trying to hit stuff off screen :D\r<br\/>\r<br\/>But those are minor problems, it's a sweet game!"},{"author_name":"31eee384","author_uid":"1712","time":"Aug 28, 2012 @ 8:37pm","epoch":1346185920,"text":"The toasters were difficult to get rid of once they get on you, and restart the entire game when you die seems a little... harsh.

Here my tips to improve your game:\r<br\/>\r<br\/>- If I die, the restart button should be centered and big. Didn't saw the button first time and refreshed the webpage to start new games.\r<br\/>- To ensure a proper flow of gaming, the &quot;elevator&quot; parts should move faster so the player must not wait several seconds until the elevator comes back.\r<br\/>- The player shoots while clicking with the mouse, was this your intention?\r<br\/>- Your game makes absolutely no sense xD\r<br\/>\r<br\/>By the way - nice audio."},{"author_name":"RARoadkill","author_uid":"13308","time":"Sep 1, 2012 @ 1:30am","epoch":1346462700,"text":"@Jeremias\r<br\/>Thanks for the tips.
