Music, made fully by you in Pico-8, is truly shining through it, doesn't get boring and is totally catchy.\nGraphics are absolutely great, I love the use of color palettes. \nGameplay is challenging and has great pace\/learning curve - while first levels teach you how to play by itself, next throw you challenges to beat with your new skills.\nI got strong Super Meat Boy vibes from it :)\n\nWhat I would improve:\n- the game gets super chaotic with its screenshake and tons of moving items on top of each other. I don't really think \"cleaning balls\" are that much of a needed feature - it could be just an aura or circle around the player, not fully animated - they get blended with enemy projectiles and other things quickly and bamboozle me a lot. \n- totally add a sound for getting a key and make it disappear immediately - I never knew if I actually got the key or not :D \n- found some bugs - could move through spaces I shouldn't be able to.\n\nOverall, it was a really fun experience!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Szatku","author_uid":"1114043","time":"2018-08-14T17:25:04Z","epoch":1534267504,"modified":1534267504,"text":"Really fun game.
