I especially like the music and sound effects, they work well together.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>My issues are with a few mechanics. The fact that your means of movement also makes people angry seems at first like an interesting challenge, but for me it just resulted in a lot of waiting for calm people to walk far enough away from me that I could take off. I also really want some indication of where the remaining grumpy people are, since they can end up being pretty far away and I'm forced by necessity to fly up high where I can't really see. Thirdly, it annoys me to no end that the mood of the character sprites doesn't sync up with the grumpy\/non-grumpy counter in the bottom right - that is, someone will find enlightenment or get grumpy according to the counter, but won't show it on screen for at least a second - this made it hard to tell exactly how meditation\/farting on people works."},{"author_name":"thumbgarden","author_uid":"52000","time":"Apr 21, 2015 @ 12:50am","epoch":1429577100,"text":"how do you start it??
