It's amazing to see how much you got done in 48 hours! Especially seeing as you made all of your own art and sounds too. There were a couple of issues e.g the dev console being shown at start, but generally this is a solid game!"},{"author_name":"highlyinteractive","author_uid":"14065","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 12:29pm","epoch":1440419040,"text":"Love this! Really fun to play &amp; a great ending. Twisted without being offensive.

The kids were piling in my van!
