Nice graphics, particularly the animations with idling and all. \r\rFinding all (or a bunch anyway) of the responses to everything you can do makes for a cool objective besides trying to hit the portal.\r\rSound would've been cool but definitely well put together and pretty damn fun!"},{"author_name":"oldmanbiles","author_uid":"5882","time":"Dec 17, 2013 @ 1:16am","epoch":1387242660,"text":"Had more fun with this than I thought I would.

I like the graphics, remind me of another world. I miss sounds and more gamey things (socre, a death counter, a death counter by spikis, portal losts, particles).

Depending on how you jump into the portal (if at all), you get a different outcome message.\r\nI wasted too much time on writing a custom blitting engine... only to swap it out with Starling (Adobe's Open-Source GPU framework for Flash).\r\nAnyways, the \"outcomes\" system is something I'm proud of, it sorts through your data (your jumps, closest distance to portal, how near in time, how far off, etc.) and can trump other messages depending on their priority. It's neat! And awesome that it's loaded dynamically through a JSON file.\r\n\r\nAlright, enjoy it for what it's worth!","title":"Leapof-8"}
