Some jumps are too spaced apart (http:\/\/imgur.com\/TLOnCTr this one made me restart the game four times) and finally, 344 288 people killed seems more like a city being flooded, not a planet dying :P\r\rOther than that, I quite liked the game. The graphics were great and having some audio really helps out the game. I loved seeing the multiple layers of the world but I think the teleportation mechanic lends itself to be more 'puzzly' (visually, the levels are broken up, but in truth they are straight-forward).\r\rGreat job, though!\r(The reference to Valve <3)"},{"author_name":"chrismcr","author_uid":"7257","time":"May 18, 2013 @ 10:40pm","epoch":1368916500,"text":"Nice!
