So what is it lacking?\n\nDefinitely better art, it seems confusing to have grey walls, floor and black marking spots. They are visible, but not as good (or maybe it might be high gamma on my display).\n\nApart from that, the controls seems kind of non-smooth (I'd say that accelerating + decelerating might be more suited for the game, than instant movement in specified direction). Although the ideal would probably be a controller.\n\nAdding some obstacles (furniture?) could also improve the levels (yet they might be there, as I went just through few levels).\n\nAnyways, it gave me few minutes of fun! Congratulations on making a game!","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Jezzamon","author_uid":"1000095","time":"2017-08-05T18:28:21Z","epoch":1501957701,"modified":1501957701,"text":"lol I really want to play this but I'm not a windows owning person :(","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Irishbruse","author_uid":"1021898","time":"2017-08-05T18:37:09Z","epoch":1501958229,"modified":1501958229,"text":"Great game lacking in the graphics side but overall is amazingly funny. :)","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"dob","author_uid":"1001644","time":"2017-08-05T19:18:55Z","epoch":1501960735,"modified":1501960735,"text":"This was pretty fun, moving the vacuum around. Once I figured out that you could control the camera as well as the vacuum, it was easier, although still pretty challenging. I couldn't make it through the second level even with about 10 tries. The camera motion was natural and worked well. Graphics and sound simple but effective. Nice work.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Gumboot","author_uid":"1010534","time":"2017-08-05T19:29:12Z","epoch":1501961352,"modified":1501961352,"text":"Simple to play yet challenging, nice job.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"jahndis","author_uid":"1001476","time":"2017-08-05T19:38:24Z","epoch":1501961904,"modified":1501961904,"text":"A simple \"clean\" game ;) I will say, unreal spits out some massive executable sizes (almost 1GB?!)
