Main thing I'd change is photographers not flashing as soon as they spawn, doesn't seem fair when you eat a fish and a photographer who wasn't there before immediately flashes you.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also I have to disagree with your theming: Nessie's not a monster, she's just misunderstood!"},{"author_name":"mathijs750","author_uid":"32745","time":"Aug 28, 2015 @ 10:52am","epoch":1440758820,"text":"I got a score of 15, a lamp spawned right on me.

You need to eat, but do not want to make your self known. Eat the fish, and avoid the flashes of the ever increasing photographers. \r\n\r\n--------------------\r\n\r\n\r\nSince I did not have more time I made this in total in about 9 hours, still quite happy with how it turned out. \r\n\r\n\r\nNOTE: 1-sep: I fixed a bug where you could be hit immediately by an appearing photographer, this was obviously not intended behaviour, so I hope it is not against the rules nor spirit. Otherwise imagine you still can be hit.\r\n\r\nHave fun!","title":"Nessie: Hide 'n' Eat"}
