(which is not a bad thing!)\rI also enjoyed how the controls feel nicely "floaty". And it's always a nice change of pace to see physics bullets instead of the usual "bam you die now"."},{"author_name":"Abdullah Elsayed","author_uid":"16045","time":"Aug 31, 2016 @ 2:43am","epoch":1472611080,"text":"I thought it's very easy them when the other ballons came I lost the game very easily .. maybe you should work on level curve.. cute graphics I think it would be better if the player is looking to me as i control him :3"},{"author_name":"publicidadeba","author_uid":"63879","time":"Aug 31, 2016 @ 3:43pm","epoch":1472657880,"text":"It would benefit if it was one hit kill"},{"author_name":"wowods","author_uid":"44858","time":"Aug 31, 2016 @ 5:45pm","epoch":1472665200,"text":"It's start kinda slow before enemies appear and go fast to the hell-difficult when enemies start appearing. the collision is at top border is kinda weird sometimes.

May I suggest you to continue level scrolling even if your ballon is stuck?

Way less annoying than the original ;)\r\rI like that you added the ability to shoot to a flappy game, however the enemies are way too strong, I never made it past the first batch. One hit one kill would be more appropriate, I think. \r\rI also wished there was a way to set save points, because each time I died I had to restart from the beginning, which was quite frustrating.\r\rSuper cute graphics, really well done! I love them!\r\rDoes the game have sound? Because I didn't hear anything."},{"author_name":"DespiteSoft","author_uid":"113515","time":"Sep 12, 2016 @ 8:20pm","epoch":1473711300,"text":"Cool art. However, I did not get the point of the long platform-only stretch in the beginning. Whenever I lost, I had to start over and do the boring part.\rVery late in the game, the platforms get a strategic value. You really needed to plan ahead! I liked the mechanic.\rToo bad the game is dilluted with the dull stretch in the beginning. Otherwise it would have been more enjoyable."},{"author_name":"Franklin's Ghost","author_uid":"35424","time":"Sep 16, 2016 @ 10:37am","epoch":1474021920,"text":"Liked the cute art style and that platforms only slowed you down rather then injuring you.
