Screen res was a little small, hard to see on my small screen laptop. The charging mechanic was quite nice, needing some practice to judge the distance and not slide off but also not fall short and get hurt."},{"author_name":"cudabear","author_uid":"25773","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 2:45pm","epoch":1440427200,"text":"Very awesome! You took a solid mechanic and made a pretty fun game out of it. My only complaint is that judging the distance of a charge was very hard, perhaps it could be something you can hold to go further?\r\rThe graphics work well for the game, though sometimes it was hard to tell what an enemy was or if it was safe to attack it.\r\rI love the sounds of the dinosaur! Got some good chuckles out of me.\r\rNice job on the game."},{"author_name":"azakhary","author_uid":"39941","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 2:50pm","epoch":1440427500,"text":"Was a bit weird at start, but then I figured it out, and it was fun. not really sure why it does what it does, but dis is my island!

I really like how you have the same concept for all of the levels, but charge one tiny game mechanic to create a completely different atmosphere. I hope you continue working on this post comp. I think you could have it as a mobile game since the controls are fairly simple."},{"author_name":"tullyhansen","author_uid":"56656","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 4:34am","epoch":1440476940,"text":"Took me a while (without reading explainer text) to figure out how to kill the… sheep?

I kept running off cliffs while trying to ram the enem- *uuh* good guys off.\r\rThe art is nice, but could be more descriptive. I could not tell what the enemy in the second level was (although from the sword-shing SFX, I'm guessing it was a samurai or similar). \r\rI also think the "Press P to restart" should actually restart the level, not take you to the menu first. I love the SFX. 3.5\/5 overall.\r\rP.S.

It's quite literally the most literal connection to the theme there is.
