Love the art style, the dialogs, and the general vibe.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I'd feel kinda stupid point out potential enhancements cause I'm sure you already got them in your to-do's list (and I'm honestly hoping you have a to-do's list for this game and plans to finish it!), but I'll do that anyway cause I think interacting with fellow devs and having constructive feedback is always the greatest takeaway from Ludum Dare. So, here it goes:\r<br\/>-Moving around is a little too slow and he feels too 'slipery'\r<br\/>-It should be possible to press a button to advance text\r<br\/>-I think some lines of text were not necessary. Usually players want to get into the game quickly, so they don't value information as much as they would later on in the same game! However I know this is an unfinished entry that ended up being about text, so I do understand the reasoning :)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>But you know what? If I didn't know this was an unfinished LD game, this begining and all that is in it would have me totally in the mood to start a long, story based space game! \r<br\/>\r<br\/>Please let me know if you keep developing it, I really liked it and would be very glad to play, or playtest, or give feedback, or all! :D\r<br\/>\r<br\/>And congratulations for your participation. As Linusson said, you're already ahead of the 90% of game dev aspirants who always end up finding excuses for NOT making games. You started one, and it's turning out quite interesting. Keep going, man!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Cheers from Brazil,\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Gabriel and JP"},{"author_name":"Antidote","author_uid":"27803","time":"Sep 2, 2013 @ 5:03pm","epoch":1378141080,"text":"Lol, I liked it, even though it wasn't complete xD Would love to see a firefly experience like this one day xD"},{"author_name":"hbocao","author_uid":"25980","time":"Sep 5, 2013 @ 2:31am","epoch":1378347960,"text":"Awwwww... that's a shame.
