I wished I could build more blocks while the game runs!\r\rLastly, there seems to be a bug where the game doesn't stop once you got hit by a monster. Eventually, I got endless popups telling me that I had survived a bit longer :D\r\rGood job for doing all of that on your own :)"},{"author_name":"muramasa","author_uid":"30442","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 3:39am","epoch":1418096040,"text":"Put grass to make things pretty.

An undo button would be really nice to remedy this. Furthermore, descriptions of what utility all the blocks serve would be nice. (As tooltips, maybe?)\r\rOnce the final block is placed the game works perfectly well, but it seems a bad idea to rob the player of all agency at that point. You should probably give them something more to do than just "watch it go". I have no suggestions for what that might be though.\r\rSorry if I've been too critical. I enjoyed the game and it's a damn sight better than my first entry.

I liked the openness of the game, felt like sprite editor that turned your sprites into levels. Though, it would have been nice if there was a way to "undo" placed blocks.
