You definitely nailed the mood, too. Yes, it's very short but it's to the point."},{"author_name":"LucaPavone","author_uid":"8645","time":"Dec 17, 2012 @ 7:46am","epoch":1355730060,"text":"Gorgeous graphics, and I noted that the character sprite changed subtly depending on whether they were facing 'up' or 'down' - That's polish! Also, the graphics complimented the mood.\r\rMy only complaints are that music was a little repetitive and and the AI tended to wig out I started killing. That aside, job well done!"},{"author_name":"raincole","author_uid":"17708","time":"Dec 17, 2012 @ 7:54am","epoch":1355730540,"text":"Awesome pixel art!

Whilst it's not really a game as such it is really fun. \r\rThe graphics and animations are the best I've seen in the competition - bar none. \r\rThe audio is great too.
