I quit when I got a little annoyed at dying at about level 11 though.\r\rThis game is kinda lacking in graphics, and music. It needs something extra to make it an additive game, to make it something more than just another platformer game. \r\rThe game did use the theme, in a way which influenced the game play, although it wasn't a super-original use.\r\rStill, pretty good! Good luck with future Ludum Dare competitions!"},{"author_name":"dector","author_uid":"9598","time":"Aug 27, 2012 @ 1:22pm","epoch":1346073420,"text":"Thanks for playing and responces.

Congratulations for finishing a game in 48 hours :) Here is my feedback:\r\r- (Relevant) foreground and background should be distinguishable\r- In one level you die if you take the wrong pipe. In my personal opinion, there should be no trial and error. A player should only die, if he made a wrong decision. And then, he should think something like "I'm so stupid..."\r- There sometimes levelparts which aren't necessary to play. That's a bit confusing.\r- Introducing new gameplay-elements step by step is really nice done. You show them on small tutorial levels (which is good), but then you didn't make a _following_ level which focus on the new gameplay element and is challenging for the player"},{"author_name":"dector","author_uid":"9598","time":"Aug 31, 2012 @ 4:39pm","epoch":1346430840,"text":"Hi.
