I like the sense of mystery about who\/what you are and why the room controls you.  Graphics are also full of imagination although maybe a bit too dark to see clearly always.  I'm going to come back and try to complete this game.  Great game."},{"author_name":"supremefist","author_uid":"6395","time":"Dec 16, 2013 @ 7:26am","epoch":1387178460,"text":"Amazing graphics!

Loved the graphics and audio. My only complaint is that graphics have very little contrast, at first I thought it was just a black floor while it has a lot of detail. Gameplay is interesting but enemies easily swarm you so it's easy to get killed. It's not that annoying but it still hinders exploration a bit. Atmosphere is superb, loved it. Great game overall, good job!"},{"author_name":"MrTedders","author_uid":"29094","time":"Dec 17, 2013 @ 3:39pm","epoch":1387294440,"text":"Nice work! The atmosphere is very mysterious.

I can only think of two real negatives I noticed during play: 1 - the gun was a bit awkward to control. 2 - some of the wording really threw me out of the mood and I found it hard to understand what the room was saying at points.  (I'm guessing English is a second language?)  But wow.  Good story and pacing.  I loved that you show how the room is not looking out for you right away by having the spiders run at the lasers.  I felt threatened all the way through the game.  Enemies and hazards are interesting too.  Great use of graphics and effects like the lighting.  Sound is nothing special but didn't seem out of place or lacking anywhere.  Music is fitting though minimal.  I like the repeated use of the theme.  I'd like to do a quick write-up of some improvements you can make to the dialogue if you don't mind the suggestions!  Overall five stars - this is the most complete and solid experience I've seen s far."},{"author_name":"CatOnMars","author_uid":"24717","time":"Dec 19, 2013 @ 10:29am","epoch":1387448640,"text":"Very well executed idea!
