I'm struggling to find a relevant connection to the theme in this case as well.\n\nIt has the potential to be a fun game of gauntlet, so keep it up!","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Bocodillo","author_uid":"1034413","time":"2017-08-02T01:35:05Z","epoch":1501637705,"modified":1501637705,"text":"A lot of potential in this game.

That's a direct consequence of enemies only following the player.\nHead bobing is way too exaggerated (i would say you used the fps controller of unity but with a wrong scale)\n\n","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"jusw85","author_uid":"1009240","time":"2017-08-03T11:48:22Z","epoch":1501760902,"modified":1501760917,"text":"I liked the game and think it has potential to be a full game release. Gameplay wise, I think the player slides too much and movement could be more crisp. Also, as mentioned in other comments, mouse speed is a little slow, ideally it could be customised with a simple slider, and a crosshair would be nice.\n\nOther than that, nice game!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Jupiter_Hadley","author_uid":"1000562","time":"2017-08-07T11:38:35Z","epoch":1502105915,"modified":1502105915,"text":"Lovely audio and graphics!

Level design-wise, there isn't much of a reason to go on the platforms. Some sort of flying sound for the kamikaze enemies to indicate when they're close would help a lot, most of the time it was a strange surprise to have something exploding on top of me out of nowhere. Graphics and audio were pretty solid though, this has some good potential & with some fixes this could be pretty fun.
