It felt really repetitive until I got to the spider, and then I couldn't figure out how to proceed. It might be worth sticking some instructions in the game description?

I had a fair amount of difficulty figuring out what to do to effectively finish a level. By the time I finally figured it out I had already lost interest sadly.\r\rIn the first level I thought that you were supposed to somehow get through to the spot the spider actually comes from, since it appeared to be the main "passageway" and I knew pushing the button unlocked it. I was surprised to find that the exit was right by the button, and that you have to click exit to actually leave. \r\rWell "why have the exit right by the button" I thought to myself. It was just sort of odd I thought because this setup didn't take advantage of any of the gameplay aspects I was just introduced to from the start. Making people wait in corners so that the spider wouldn't see them or something while we snuck around it was the approach I thought was needed.\r\rI think the main problem people like me are having with the games first level is that the exit isn't very identifiable. It's sort of tucked off at the edge and is discreet. Some people may also not be noticing the exit button you need to press to move on.\r\rOverall I really like the visuals and atmosphere, but some of the design decisions made it difficult to understand where exactly the game expects you to go in the beginning."},{"author_name":"eralpkaraduman","author_uid":"2525","time":"Dec 18, 2013 @ 12:51am","epoch":1387327560,"text":"Very nice Lighting and sfx.

I got stuck on the 7th level. I'm pretty sure I have the right solution, but bridges keep collapsing when people are safely on the other side. Other than that, though, this is a lovely entry.\r\rPS. You get past the spider by baiting him with one of your guys to move the rest across and then come back for him when you can move more quickly. (at least that's how I did it)."},{"author_name":"Venks","author_uid":"13781","time":"Dec 18, 2013 @ 4:06am","epoch":1387339260,"text":"This is absolutely stunning- I really hope to see a polished version of this with better controls.\rGot stuck at level 5, baiting that spider was way too frustrating."},{"author_name":"deathray","author_uid":"17861","time":"Dec 18, 2013 @ 4:49am","epoch":1387341840,"text":"That spider bite sure is deadly.
