I just took, it seems to me, the idea of a game that is too based on content and only on the second day I realized that it was difficult to simplify. It was also worthwhile to pay more attention to the gameplay related to the theme of LD. Definitely, the next time I need to come up with a smaller game.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"philipprapp95","author_uid":"1143592","time":"2019-05-05T17:51:39Z","epoch":1557078699,"modified":1557078699,"text":"Interesting game, the graphics are pretty cool.

I also liked the idea of the upgrades when I died. Some instructions would have helped but sometimes you can't get to things like that in 48 hours.
