This made me actually lol and I enjoyed every second of it. I agree that a bit better feedback would help, but winning wasn't really the point to me here.

Not saying that balking convention is a bad thing, but it feels like just randomly, and without any indication, changing things that people might expect to hold true might not be a good idea by default.\n\nThe music\/soundtrack\/ambience is interesting, I thought it was pretty well put together, though it also did feel broken at times, which is a punky aesthetic and that's cool. But not sure if it was entirely correct.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"jharler","author_uid":"1001548","time":"2018-08-14T11:59:45Z","epoch":1534247985,"modified":1534247985,"text":"Quite a unique take on the theme.  The graphics were pretty cool and worked well.  I will concur with other reviewers that the controls were a bit confusing and a lot of things I tried didn't seem to accomplish anything.
