I enjoyed the difference between the soldier and mecha modes. \n\nThe level design was generally really good. I ran out of battery just when a new underground warren showed up.\n\nMy one criticism is that some of  the underground snakes(?) were spawned with such density that it seemed impossible not to take damage, regardless of platforming skill. A little unfair. \n\nOverall a great game ","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"PietPtr","author_uid":"1001395","time":"2017-08-02T16:01:53Z","epoch":1501689713,"modified":1501689713,"text":"Never heard of PICO-8 before, looks like a very interesting engine\/project.
