As an arcade game there is a lot of missed opportunity as it could only provide a few minutes of entertainment.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I could easily see this idea in a puzzle game in which you could try and get to an exit without blocking yourself or trying to trap some sort of enemy in the grayed out blocks.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The graphics and audio of the game were all primitive and worked well together. Nothing looked or sounded out of place, and everything was visually\/audibly pleasing.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Overall a pretty good game and I would love to see this idea taken further. Congratulations and great job on finishing!"},{"author_name":"Moosefly","author_uid":"25343","time":"Dec 20, 2013 @ 3:51am","epoch":1387511160,"text":"Didn't really feel like a puzzle game, because I could get almost the same results just by wandering aimlessly. The mechanics could've used something more, like maybe a goal you have navigate to or something you must collect? Interesting concept nonetheless!"},{"author_name":"01101101","author_uid":"5105","time":"Dec 20, 2013 @ 8:14pm","epoch":1387570140,"text":"I agree with Moosefly, the consequences of picking a rune over another are not very clear, so it's not easy to really get a strategy going. I too would like to play a more advanced version of this :) Good job!"},{"author_name":"Dry Tree","author_uid":"5357","time":"Dec 20, 2013 @ 8:18pm","epoch":1387570380,"text":"Great game, and well done on your first Ludum Dare!

The idea is so unique and fun.\r<br\/>I'm not sure that the goal is supposed to be. I'm guessing either to collect everything or to get out. Doesn't seem to be a goal at all, but again I like the concept."},{"author_name":"frogcheese","author_uid":"25059","time":"Dec 20, 2013 @ 8:28pm","epoch":1387570980,"text":"I got 1370 points, though I'm not sure if that's good or not. The idea was nice, and even if I didn't understand it at first I did after my first run. I think it would help to know how the score is calculated though, so a player knows what to aim for."},{"author_name":"van noctar","author_uid":"21196","time":"Dec 20, 2013 @ 8:29pm","epoch":1387571040,"text":"I like the concept!!
