The mood was incredible and the way you based the entire game around the theme was genius. The one thing that would improve it is less camera wobble when jumping. I know this is meant to enhance the mood but I found it hindered me a lot when judging jumps. Overall an incredible game and, with a bit of polishing, could very happily end up on Steam!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"MZA","author_uid":"1050407","time":"2019-04-30T16:25:48Z","epoch":1556641548,"modified":1556641548,"text":"@notsoepicgames Thanks for the kind word + feedback.
