I like the "game & watch" art and movement style a lot :)\rThe core gameplay is interesting, and the levels you designed offer a smoothly increasing difficulty curse. I also like the humor in the game (Splash!)\r\rMy only complaint is about the fact that we cannot restart at the last level when we die - It's very hard and frustrating to have to redo all the game from the beginning, especially when we discover a new "enemy" or a difficult level - I hope you'll do a "post-compo" version with unlimited continues, so your game can also be enjoyed by non-hardcore gamers! :)"},{"author_name":"reiknight","author_uid":"36994","time":"Apr 23, 2015 @ 8:48pm","epoch":1429821780,"text":"Wow, the idea is original, and the execution is very good."},{"author_name":"Coban31","author_uid":"47329","time":"Apr 23, 2015 @ 10:26pm","epoch":1429827660,"text":"Assez original!
