Especially with the blending of colours. Just feels off. Still, a fun game. Played it longer than most others even."},{"author_name":"metkis","author_uid":"27592","time":"Dec 17, 2013 @ 11:04am","epoch":1387277940,"text":"I like this idea, it's really interesting. I feel like it fits the theme alright! Graphics are tight, there's solid audio and music. Overall an enjoyable idea that could be taken even further. My only gripe is that the controls were a little finicky, but otherwise great!"},{"author_name":"TeamRoboto","author_uid":"30482","time":"Dec 17, 2013 @ 8:04pm","epoch":1387310340,"text":"You can only have one colour!

That seems to not be very common but I will definitely be keeping my eye out for it.

The character was pretty tough to control. I'll agree that the theme was a bit loose, but overall, I think this was a great entry!"},{"author_name":"Riilu","author_uid":"31336","time":"Dec 17, 2013 @ 9:43pm","epoch":1387316280,"text":"It really missed out on the theme sadly, but the game was fairly fun, more work should have been put into the controls though, they felt slippery, and the jumping felt very inconsistent, it was as if everytime I pressed space the orb would jump to different heights. The visuals were nice and in general there was nothing particularly bad about the game."},{"author_name":"pkenney","author_uid":"30865","time":"Dec 18, 2013 @ 8:45pm","epoch":1387399200,"text":"Supercool, so glad I didn't read the directions.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Controls a bit wonky, I kept struggling against them, first feeling that I couldn't move enough and then suddenly getting unstuck and overshooting my target, which was the only mar in an otherwise sweet experience."},{"author_name":"Keith Evans","author_uid":"25189","time":"Dec 18, 2013 @ 8:46pm","epoch":1387399260,"text":"Thanks for all the great feedback everybody!
