Being able to skip such moments is always good.\r<br\/>* Shooting would be more interesting if the progress on pressing C would go back and forward endlessly, not just to highest and back to lowest.\r<br\/>* Aiming screen could be larger - a lot of screen space isn't used and you have to focus on a very small window which isn't very comfortable for weak eyes."},{"author_name":"bushmango","author_uid":"5852","time":"Dec 14, 2015 @ 5:35am","epoch":1450071000,"text":"I like how you added the bonuses to make each level different."},{"author_name":"tjxx","author_uid":"39681","time":"Dec 14, 2015 @ 5:40am","epoch":1450071300,"text":"Fun game!

This was great! I liked how the different crimes gave you different targets to aim for on the body. I wasn't very accurate with my shots, though.

It felt really rewarding to hit the guy where the king asked you to, haha.  The aiming felt a bit poor, sometimes I was waiting for several minutes for the aim to line up with where I wanted to fire.  But I was usually able to hit the target (or near) when it did.  The art gets the job done, but seems a bit sloppy (lots of anti-aliasing on text and assets, while none on other).  Audio is nice, particularly loved the king's voice!  Well done."},{"author_name":"Krafty","author_uid":"60548","time":"Dec 16, 2015 @ 7:04pm","epoch":1450292340,"text":"This is really cool and fun!

I enjoyed the goofy story and the surprise near the end. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>One issue with gameplay was that I never really got a handle on how wind and shot strength worked. Part of this was that I don't know what the max wind speed is, part of it is that I can't actually see where my shots go, just whether they miss or not, so I don't know if I over-adjusted or under-adjusted for wind and shot strength. One game I've seen that has really clear wind indicators is &quot;Ball King&quot; - it uses more arrows to indicate stronger wind without mentioning literal speed at all.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also, does hitting the &quot;slow&quot; button change direction after? Sometimes I felt like that was happening but I wasn't sure. If not, that could be a good feature to keep the crosshairs from getting stuck in the corner - something like &quot;reverse direction when slow button released&quot;. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>Anyway, thanks for making this!"},{"author_name":"knason","author_uid":"65229","time":"Dec 19, 2015 @ 8:14pm","epoch":1450555740,"text":"I really liked this game! thank you.
