I still showed off the gamepage on stream and we all commented about how great it was that you used traditional media for the background, I dont see that very often in LD submissions.\n\nAfter watching the playthrough, I definitely wasnt expecting that ending and know I wouldve been freaking out the entire time haha. The audio is fantastic, loved the audio feedback, the screen shake, and how the tutorial was executed. I would probably have the tutorial a little smaller and lined up along the bottom of the score bar and then leave it up until the green screen and change the \"Avoid >\" to \"Collect >\" so the player knows to move towards the > instead of avoid. Once they collect it, you can take that down.\n\nOverall its a fantastic game, definitely wasnt what I was expecting haha","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"mrspeaker","author_uid":"1013726","time":"2018-04-28T02:05:19Z","epoch":1524881119,"modified":1524881119,"text":"Perfect.

It started, I thought - oh, a cute game - seems simple enough - I hope there's a bit more to it than this coin collecting.. and maybe real enemies instead of those orange arrows.

I was drawn to them, as they were drawn to me... neither of us could co-exist without the other. Until the end. And the end was full of sadness.\n\n\n...until I saw that replay button :D \n\nIn seriousness - it was really top notch audio, visual effects, and mood. Could have quickly turned into a horror!
