The fall sequence is pretty long, but well-tuned for reaction times.  I was wondering how the last scene was going to end and the abruptness of it caught me off guard.  Good show!"},{"author_name":"BuriTeam","author_uid":"37481","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 4:56am","epoch":1398747060,"text":"It is nice! You got a mix of styles over there!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>It would be nice to have an idea that we are getting somewhere when we are in the hole, btw."},{"author_name":"avalonknight","author_uid":"11623","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 5:48am","epoch":1398750180,"text":"Not bad at all! The game plays well, and the even though the instructions per level was listed in the comments, I would've like to have seen it in the game in the same capacity. Especially since all three levels have unique gameplay.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Per level:\r<br\/>-I don't have much to say about level one. It works, and does what it needs.\r<br\/>-Level two did feel a bit longer than its suppose to. I also like the fact that your character is restricted to stay in those three spots while falling.\r<br\/>-I enjoyed level 3, since I like twin-stick\/Robotron shooters! Maybe a life meter would've helped. But maybe it would've made it too easy in the end.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Reposting this from Newgrounds."},{"author_name":"zdonkeyx","author_uid":"34347","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 7:31am","epoch":1398756360,"text":"Not sure if this is true for others. But I could not see the player or what I was supposed to do in level 2, I figured out that the little guy is falling and is positioned at the top but some visuals would've been nice.
