Nice idea, and I like the art style.\r\rYes, it has bugs, and no, there's no ending, and yes, the level is very short, but all in all, not bad. A fun little game and if you were to continue developing it I think it could really become something spectacular. :D"},{"author_name":"zorf","author_uid":"10870","time":"Apr 24, 2012 @ 8:00pm","epoch":1335297300,"text":"Cool game.
