Man, this game is tough. I got to about 80 people leaving but this game requires a ton of patience and multi tasking. You have to maintain the positioning of your clouds, as long as form new ones, and while having the mature clouds knock squirrels or something down to grow trees or something. I liked the concept and I would be interested to seeing it be taken a step further, I had something in mind too for LD with fighting against society, something about politics. Anyways, good game but needed a lot of polish on the difficulty and time scale."},{"author_name":"sugarbyte","author_uid":"34276","time":"Apr 21, 2015 @ 12:02am","epoch":1429574220,"text":"Really cool idea!"},{"author_name":"Simon","author_uid":"9596","time":"Apr 21, 2015 @ 11:32am","epoch":1429615620,"text":"This is the most WTF game I've ever played."},{"author_name":"Prowler","author_uid":"49063","time":"Apr 21, 2015 @ 3:00pm","epoch":1429628100,"text":"Full score for the theme! \rVery good concept.
