Enemies are also way too fast, often leading you to be stuck in an impossible situation. Collision was wonky; I was miles away from an enemy when the \"game over\" screen happened.\n\nInteresting base concept, needs further development. Use playtesting feedback from LD to tune the idea, and give a post-compo version a whirl.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Miguel Polvora","author_uid":1054422,"time":"2017-12-05T22:42:30Z","epoch":1512513750,"modified":1512513750,"text":"Besides missing audio and needing to have a more developed concept (to become more enganging) I really liked the idea, congrats!","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Rature","author_uid":1066451,"time":"2017-12-05T22:43:28Z","epoch":1512513808,"modified":1512513808,"text":"good idea, the game play is a bit hard,","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Hadermite","author_uid":1006686,"time":"2017-12-05T22:44:38Z","epoch":1512513878,"modified":1512513878,"text":"Responsive controls, nice concept, simple design and sprites that fit the theme.
