I liked the surreal candy atmosphere, the gameplay with perfect hitboxes. A +10 (or whatever score gain) over every hit would have made it even more addictive. Audio was too loud though, and a bit annoying after a few minutes ^^"},{"author_name":"Quantum Cupcake","author_uid":"91756","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 3:13pm","epoch":1461078480,"text":"I like the art and the way that the game goes!

Normalize is not necesserly a good thing depending on the audio because it push the audio to the maximum level available, it's good for having all sound the same volume if you have a lot of different sources, but you got to mix it down later to a proper level"},{"author_name":"Rock Eaters","author_uid":"90519","time":"Apr 29, 2016 @ 9:12pm","epoch":1461964020,"text":"good mood ! :)"},{"author_name":"Green Soda","author_uid":"64207","time":"May 8, 2016 @ 6:05am","epoch":1462687200,"text":"cute game and graphics! the artstyle is kyaa! xD"}],"images":["ld35\/56261-a5499c7b3d95ff47f051b224424c7d67.jpg","ld35\/56261-465b3d152747d2653a02d51c08ee9d89.jpg","ld35\/56261-1f2435da2a84722058211f2ee5f9d8cb.jpg","ld35\/56261-67f02cb400b70ba50b62eec194613c5c.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/pgunited.com\/unity\/DangoSmash\/","text":"Web"},{"url":"http:\/\/pgunited.com\/unity\/DangoSmash\/DangoSmash_Win.zip","text":"Windows"},{"url":"http:\/\/pgunited.com\/unity\/DangoSmash\/DangoSmash_Mac.zip","text":"OS\/X (Untested)"},{"url":"http:\/\/pgunited.com\/unity\/DangoSmash\/DangoSmash_Linux.zip","text":"Linux (Untested)"},{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/goost\/LD35_ProjectKokopelli","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"4340","g_author":"56261","g_event":"LD35","g_eventkey":"33","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"4335","g_title":"Dango Smash","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"569","g_commentcount":"21","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/542293\/56261-shot0-1461026079.PNG-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/542293\/56261-shot1-1461026079.PNG-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/542293\/56261-shot2-1461026079.PNG-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/542293\/56261-shot3-1461026079.PNG-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Whack-a-mole style game called DangoSmash ('cause they are dangos, not moles!) with a twist.\r\n\r\nMy third entry, first one as a team (it was her first).\r\nLike always, nothing went as planned, we had to start anew on Sunday as our first idea just did not work out.\r\nBut we learned a lot and are quite happy with our result.
