Gameplay works ok, but my main issue is that the mouse cursor tends to pull the view around too much, which is unsettling. Makes me want to keep it closer to the character, but then it's hard to aim properly. Not quite sure how best to solve it. Probably a larger dead zone where you can only aim, so you must point further away to begin moving. Could also use RMB to move, I guess. Once the window just randomly closed while I was playing."},{"author_name":"Rock Eaters","author_uid":"90519","time":"May 5, 2016 @ 11:05pm","epoch":1462489200,"text":"dope graphics, and the mechanic is cool too. did 85 point :)"},{"author_name":"SchrodingersCult","author_uid":"49770","time":"May 10, 2016 @ 11:10am","epoch":1462878300,"text":"#17 Overall!
