Don't worry, I did not rate your game when I first played it. I read in your comments it was not done yet :)\r\rThe game is very funny, a little bit hard for me. But I still had some fun. The wind is blowing too hard for me also and it often get you killed.\r\rI loved the pirate song :D\r\rGreat take on the theme even if you're in jam ;)\r\rGreat work !"},{"author_name":"Symmeteer","author_uid":"18295","time":"Dec 18, 2013 @ 7:58am","epoch":1387353180,"text":"Best audio ever."},{"author_name":"FrozenCow","author_uid":"8435","time":"Dec 18, 2013 @ 11:48pm","epoch":1387410180,"text":"Haha, awesome job on the sound. It took a while to figure out what buttons to use (the tutorial uses a interesting, but not very readable font), but the mechanic is pretty cool and I did manage to shoot down some of the other ships. Changing gun direction was also funny when using stereo headphones.
