I love the idea and it's a very smart implementation, and it looks great. My only gripe is that it's very easy until you mess up, which can take a while. It feels almost like it only becomes interesting when you screw up a few times first."},{"author_name":"SvenFrankson","author_uid":"56473","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 5:32pm","epoch":1440523620,"text":"Nice idea, trully inovative. But shouldn't you gain heads with time instead of failures ? Good job !"},{"author_name":"jrhee","author_uid":"55500","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 5:36pm","epoch":1440523860,"text":"Great concept and execution!"},{"author_name":"sprawl","author_uid":"29314","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 6:04pm","epoch":1440525540,"text":"Very fun game, I love how it looks when you have multiple heads. The only thing I would change is that the number of heads should be linked to the score. My first game was fun since i made mistake early and had multiple heads. The second one I ate nearly everything with only 3 heads, which made the game less fun.\r\rOtherwise, super fun game. It's a neat idea !"},{"author_name":"steve","author_uid":"5178","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 6:15pm","epoch":1440526200,"text":"Nice idea, I like the path of destruction the hydra leaves in its wake! I noticed a bug where you can zoom in so much the world inverts and the floor is drawn in black."},{"author_name":"GBGames","author_uid":"251","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 8:29pm","epoch":1440534240,"text":"I love the concept of this game. I used to be obsessed about hydras as a kid. \r\rI love the art. It's like my doodles of hydras brought to life.\r\rSometimes I couldn't figure out where the hydra was going, but I like how you have to balance the needs of the different heads. It's easier once you realize that Burny needs to burn trees and specifically shouldn't burn bushes.

Agree with the other commenters that it's too easy unless if you create difficult for yourself and purposefully make more heads!"},{"author_name":"terop2","author_uid":"58046","time":"Aug 26, 2015 @ 7:57pm","epoch":1440618720,"text":"works fine. nice graphics. leaves nice trail. got game over too soon.

Most people have made the comments I would regarding making head number time\/score dependent. All in all a neat little tech demo for an interesting game concept. Hope to see some moving targets added :)"},{"author_name":"Zerkruemler","author_uid":"27446","time":"Aug 29, 2015 @ 7:28pm","epoch":1440876180,"text":"Cool idea and nice implementation whith the nice graphics and animations.

When I started to understand the mechanics, I found it to be very satisfying to waddle around and destroy stuff. It gets kind of stressful after some time, but I guess that's the whole point... Anyways, graphics are awesome, controls are responsive and intuitive, everything is nicely executed and polished! And of course I love me some Greek mythology! Great job!\r\rThe best score I managed to get was 975, I feel like that's pretty bad..."},{"author_name":"Biruts","author_uid":"25209","time":"Aug 30, 2015 @ 12:58am","epoch":1440895980,"text":"Very nice project guys, i really love it, please check our game too and if you liked it give us a vote.
