Good use of the theme, solid controls, and good puzzles.\r\rFor whatever reason, picking up the cube, especially while jumping up, seemed off and wasn't really responsive when I needed it to be. Also, I ran into a minor bug where I threw the cube at one of the enemies, causing both the guard and the cube to disappear, forcing a level restart.\r\rA small note: It was confusing for determining whether a button needed to be held down or if it was just a one time hit button. Maybe differentiate whether the button needs to be toggled or if it just needs to be pressed once. Other than these small things, great work!"},{"author_name":"JaymeeMak","author_uid":"30729","time":"Dec 19, 2013 @ 7:57pm","epoch":1387482720,"text":"can't play, mac"},{"author_name":"tobbez","author_uid":"19361","time":"Dec 22, 2013 @ 4:00pm","epoch":1387727700,"text":"Sopmetimes you could not pick up the cube.
