Its always fun to watch a game in development and then jump into a more finalized\/ polish version..even if that takes place in just a few days! Thanks for the comments and rating and I will be turing it into a more full and polished release with a slight greater combat level and some more exploration and also sounds....Good luck!"},{"author_name":"sknoslo","author_uid":"14586","time":"Dec 18, 2013 @ 3:30pm","epoch":1387380300,"text":"Nicely designed puzzles.
