I love the slow down mechanic and jumping off of bullets. I kinda feel like the 100 seconds instead is kinda cheating, and having that extra time limit doesn't really add anything to the game. Would have been cool if the focus was on the slow down and maybe you can only do that for a total of 10 seconds? Great game regardless! Very impressive :)"},{"author_name":"andwhatnot","author_uid":"27164","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 10:54pm","epoch":1377643740,"text":"Like how you build the narrative up and used it to justify your use of the them.

Seems like you're the first, unless someone found it and didn't mention it. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>In retrospect the way I would handle the time limit thing would be to have you be able to return to &quot;checkpoints&quot; in the game with the most amount of ms that you ever entered that checkpoint at. I saw a similar mechanic in another game and instantly realized that it was infinitely better than my cheap hack because it adds so much depth to the game! Oh well...
