Took me a little bit to figure out what the goal was, and to navigate the menus, but that might be due to me not being very familiar with Pico-8. Overall though, one of the most impressive things I've seen so far, great work!","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Michael Parrish","author_uid":"1224202","time":"2020-10-05T01:01:12Z","epoch":1601859672,"modified":1601859672,"text":"This is super awesome, and I cant believe that you were able to do it on Pico-8.

Graphics were very cool, love the style and idea. Maybe a restriction of Pico-8, but I think this game would be a lot better with mouse controls. Manipulating power and angles in a game is necessarily trial and error, and that ends up being a lot of key presses.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"TheVideoGamester","author_uid":"1167214","time":"2020-10-05T04:45:10Z","epoch":1601873110,"modified":1601873110,"text":"Took me a minute to figure out the goal but once I got over that it was a very solid and interesting game.
