The background story is really funny, and that is only enhanced by the cool sound effects and graphics. I love it watching how the minions get shocked by their boss screaming at them, then turn around and are all "WHAT" :D\r\rI think the levels should be shorter or with checkpoints - or the difficulty curve should be flatter. I stopped in the middle of level 2 because it was a bit frustrating always to start at the beginning, and I think that's a pity because I would've loved to see the end and if there are any new enemies introduced later on. Are there? Please make a video for all us non-hardcore-gamers!\r\rBonus points for the cool music and the all-around polish!\r\rThis is not just a solid game, but a really fun one on top of it. Good job you two!"},{"author_name":"Nehmulos","author_uid":"9775","time":"Dec 19, 2012 @ 6:39pm","epoch":1355942040,"text":"That art is really amazing and I liked the idea of the Endboss helping the hero to finish him by himself. \rIt was a little bit hard, but very fun after I practiced the maps a little.

That was our big mistake. \rAnd there isn't new enemies, we kept the sames for the 3 short levels we've made.

I feel like it needs a bit more challenge though - after figuring out the first level (which was difficult, but not excessively so), it was just the same thing two more times without much more of a challenge except one or two extra spots where there were a lot of enemies. Maybe some sort of puzzle element would help the game - like instead of just being about being scary in front of the hero at the right time, having to scare minions deeper in or something that requires a little more thought or movement."},{"author_name":"Herku","author_uid":"12577","time":"Dec 26, 2012 @ 11:57am","epoch":1356522720,"text":"The art looks amazing.
