I think something I would improve about it is maybe add some kind of powerup, or some other kind of mechanic, other than just left\/right. Its just not a lot in terms of what you can do.\n\nThe music isn't bad at all, but it gets repetitive really fast.\n\nThat being said, the cover photo really grabbed my attention. Your concept is extremely funny, ngl. Made me laugh out loud.","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"},{"id":774975,"author_name":"CrocodileTuesday","author_uid":"crocodiletuesday","epoch":1649049798,"text":"I love the attention to detail in this game!
