Gets a bit too hard really fast though. Maybe the mining portion should be more generous so upgrades came faster? But including a shop in itself is a great addition. Solid work."},{"author_name":"rylgh","author_uid":"15833","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 8:06am","epoch":1377504060,"text":"Really fun, really challenging.

It was really hard to see what lava was at the first level, I never had enough money to upgrade, and in the shooting stage, I felt that it was impossible to shoot the enemies sometimes, as they were coming from different directions. Exciting music would have helped. Also, the graphics do suck, sorry, but the gameplay concept was great."},{"author_name":"Red Mike","author_uid":"14718","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 10:15am","epoch":1377511800,"text":"Neat game, a bit too hard from the 3rd level on.

If yes, I missed them and so apologize :P), and that the fights get too tough too fast. I understand it is a &quot;defense&quot; game and so movement would have made no sense, but I would have liked to be able to move in this game, at least in a small, confined area.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Overall pretty solid, with some polish and tweaking\/balancing, this could sell a sponsorship, easy."},{"author_name":"Martin_Monosys","author_uid":"20047","time":"Aug 28, 2013 @ 9:13pm","epoch":1377724080,"text":"Fun stuff, but a few things could be improved, especially sound is really missing from the game.

Had a blast and def will do it again.  The art is programmer art and there is no sound, but I think the game mechanics are fun :)\r\n\r\nPlay it at www.teddygaming.com\/LD27\r\n\r\nThe game is pretty hard, so i suggest playing around in cheat mode to see what works for you. (in cheat mode you may press space to skip a level). Didn't have much time to balance the game. (may i suggest turrets though :P)\r\n\r\nAlso feel free to download the unity package (in the windows link), you can check out the code\/edit it or do what you like :)!\r\n\r\nI suggest playing in full screen, some of the GUI is a bit cramped? \r\n\r\nThere is a cheat mode as well (top corner of title screen)\r\n\r\nIf you would like to add music\/art to this game and make it better w\/ me twitter me! @TeddyNashor!","title":"MUD"}
