It might inhibit your creativity.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Audio worked fine. Graphics were pretty meh but didn't make me want to tear my eyes out so I'll give you that - plus they were fairly clear. It wasn't amazingly fun but it wasn't tedious either.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The theme didn't come through particularly heavily (perhaps you could have added, say, conveyor belts?), but it was a nice idea - just needed some expansion. And yeah, it was a bit of a push-over.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Overall, nothing spectacular, but nice work - and congratulations on making a game that doesn't crash."},{"author_name":"MrBlade","author_uid":"23232","time":"Dec 24, 2013 @ 5:50am","epoch":1387863900,"text":"@GreaseMonkey thank you very much for the input! You seem to be in a clear mind and I appreciate you didn't sugar coat your thoughts. The physics are very clunky, I agree with you. Even though it's only been about a week and half since I made this, I have taught myself much better physics, proper jumping, more solid collision, etc. I like that you are not forcing your views onto me, and wish for me to learn at my own pace. I am not an artist, and as you said, that shows. Haha. This was first LD game to even have art, let alone graphics, so give me some room in that department. I was hoping they would make you tear your eyes, aw, mission failed. Conveyor belts sound like an interesting idea. Now that I know how to implement better physics and have a better overall design structure, I could probably implement okay conveyor belts in a number of days. I agree with what you are saying as far as this game being a pushover, I sort of agree. I wasn't really proud of this game, and I didn't like the theme. This LD I didn't have as much drive to make something I was proud of. As you can see from the progress I have made, I used this as a learning experience. Again, thank you very much for your input."},{"author_name":"GarethIW","author_uid":"20364","time":"Dec 26, 2013 @ 12:21pm","epoch":1388060160,"text":"A good use of the theme!

Not too many one plays to the end. With some elaboration of level design the placement of the blue block wouldn't have to be as obvious as in the current levels, which I think would make the game a little better."},{"author_name":"shatley123","author_uid":"20690","time":"Dec 31, 2013 @ 8:53am","epoch":1388479680,"text":"Cool game, i love the concept.
