The emojis work great for the game - I like how each line of emojis is related to the object you control.\n\nA very small quality of life thing - I played in my browser using the arrow keys - I would have liked the 'next level\/try again button' to be triggered using space bar\/etc. rather that having to click on it.\n\n That aside, I enjoyed the game, and I can see especially how it would be great on mobile!","likes":3,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"FabDynamic","author_uid":"1078813","time":"2020-10-05T22:05:09Z","epoch":1601935509,"modified":1601935582,"text":"I found this game real enjoyable and it even surprised me several times with how interesting it got.  I liked trying to remember which way to go.  \n\nSome feedback for the future:\n1. Trying to beat the time to get a high score on each level could be a new mechanic\n2. Also picking up optional bonus coins in difficult spots could be a new mechanic for advanced players\n3. @ividusk I had the same thought about the space bar or enter key would have been great for the next level \/ try again buttons.\n\nThanks for making this and good luck in the compo!\n\nP.S.

I actually went back and forth trying to decide whether it was cheating. I decided that it was okay because I never treat the emojis as images, only as text. That means it's up to your operating system and browser to display the emojis, exactly like if I was using any other text character.\n\nNot sure if that changes your opinion at all, but that's how I justified it in my brain. \ud83d\ude3a","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Chris Hall","author_uid":"1055302","time":"2020-10-27T06:09:38Z","epoch":1603778978,"modified":1603778978,"text":"It was a bit short and I wish there were more or procedurally generated levels but honestly...that was awesome.
