I liked the physics-based attacks. The upgrades were a bit confusing to use, perhaps a U.I. would help indicate what powers you have available and what they do? Also I died but the game didn't reset or anything, perhaps a main menu      that you exit back to would help make the game feel more polished. Nice work!","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Badosz","author_uid":"1032063","time":"2019-04-29T21:41:52Z","epoch":1556574112,"modified":1556574112,"text":"Wow, I love the graphics and te feel of the game!
