Moving feels like it's on ice entirely, jumping is just hovering (increasing on the y axis) as opposed to being anything and you can avoid killing all monsters as it will grab the "level" of the last one you kill. And the room is usually too dark.\r\rThe visuals and music and core idea are okay, but the physics kind of ruin it a bit for me.\r\rGood entry nonetheless!"},{"author_name":"Patomkin","author_uid":"57656","time":"Apr 21, 2016 @ 10:54am","epoch":1461235740,"text":"The idea is nice, but the controls ruin all of it. :( Hovering should have been a jump and left-right movement should have been much more responsive.
