I hope you are happy. \/potato. I enjoyed this. Graphics and controls were tight. I'd suggest maybe making the dark green (death area) a different color. Maybe just darker green, if you want to keep it colored vs black. Well polished. Perhaps a room counter or some progress bar so you know how close to the end you are, to incentivize people not to quit?"},{"author_name":"joe40001","author_uid":"22192","time":"May 2, 2013 @ 8:33am","epoch":1367483280,"text":"I really liked the music, really liked the graphics considering the theme but I kept getting these thin flashing purple lines which bothered me.
