I like how you made it to where you couldn't just hold down the stretch keys the whole (I tried to do thinking I was sneaky). The mechanics were smooth and the game play was addicting. I feel there could be better sound and some music and a bit more to the details of the visuals. Overall,, great game to play! Good job :)"},{"author_name":"Reyn","author_uid":"25581","time":"Apr 25, 2016 @ 8:03pm","epoch":1461614280,"text":"Very nice.

Correct clean graphics, the obstacles are especially good-looking. The game in itself gets a little repetitive after some time, but that's to be expected (I mean : what ludum dare game doesn't ?). (But you made the game becomes faster and harder the longer you play : it makes the game a lot more interesting, so good job.)\r\rSome comments on the mechanics : I often shift back my ball to it's original size right after passing through a gate, but I still take some damage. I would expect the collisions to be thinner.\rMaybe you could have varied the gameplay a little more, like having to get "flat" to pass low gates, because right now if you don't want points you can simply survive using only the thin-form.\r\rThe mechanics are global well-done, I'm just trying to pin-point what I feel could be slightly better.\r\rSo good job and good luck for your future projects !"},{"author_name":"mukult","author_uid":"65633","time":"May 6, 2016 @ 7:16pm","epoch":1462561860,"text":"Nice game feel!
