I don't know how I feel about the timer. I think if you took away the timer and added some levels along with some sort of size goal for each level then it would be more fun.

I sort of wondered what the white bar at the top was about until I saw "TIME'S UP" at the end, and proceeded to try four more times to not be a horrible black hole. I'm bad at being a black hole.\r\rThat said, I thought the timer was a fun challenge to work against. I didn't really notice, but does eating things give you more time? If not, I think that would be really fun. If so, I think they should give a bit more time.\r\rA restart button at the end would be nice too :D"},{"author_name":"someone","author_uid":"1207","time":"May 4, 2012 @ 3:40pm","epoch":1336145700,"text":"Failed to get it running on Linux.\rNot sure why, got other games using lwjgl working."},{"author_name":"pbackx","author_uid":"5353","time":"May 4, 2012 @ 4:02pm","epoch":1336147020,"text":"Good fun. \rAdd some graphics and maybe levels and you've got a nice casual game."},{"author_name":"samwoakley","author_uid":"11289","time":"May 4, 2012 @ 4:42pm","epoch":1336149420,"text":"Had a decent time playing, but as others have said, a score of some sorts would be nice.
