The implementation, and \u2013 to be more exact \u2013\u00a0the **audio** aspect of it\u2013 compensate for that, though.\n\nAll things considered: An a bit boring idea (in my opinion) with a much better implementation (especially in mood and audio). \n\nThank you for sharing.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Jose Pedro Dias","author_uid":"1011989","time":"2017-08-01T11:32:43Z","epoch":1501587163,"modified":1501587163,"text":"Very glad you appreciated our game, even if not the game concept.\nWe tried to come up with a fun game with challenging levels.

Besides that, there were a couple parts where coin chasing caused me to die either through missing fuel or hitting walls - I list that as an issue because the typical suggested path in level design is to use the score object (like coins) to guide the player in the right direction, and this game did a little of the opposite.\n\nAlso, while the games concept wasn't that interesting or innovative, and it did feel like the theme was a little stuffed in randomly, but the audio was pulled off quite well, and the controls (even if they were only one button) were smooth to use and I wasn't left feeling frustrated.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Jupiter_Hadley","author_uid":"1000562","time":"2017-08-30T17:08:12Z","epoch":1504112892,"modified":1504112892,"text":"Interesting little game!
