Great concept and great implementation. The theme is definitely subtle, but in there, which works really well with the message I got from the game.The audio was pleasant. Though I was being hurt, the sound was too soothing, haha. It would work better for when you spelled things right. Because there was no feedback, when I rushed to spell another word, I wouldn't see that I misspelled the one I just typed. Other than that, very well done!"},{"author_name":"Sergraz","author_uid":"10052","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 5:28pm","epoch":1398705780,"text":"Wow, I like both the idea and its implementation.
