I loved how the background changed, and the little alien."},{"author_name":"kato9","author_uid":"5821","time":"Aug 28, 2012 @ 11:16pm","epoch":1346195460,"text":"Really great visuals with a lot of small details and polish - I especially liked the sort of flickery, blurred overlay.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The puzzles are a little convoluted - most of them seem to just require some random guessing. This wouldn't be so bad but with the timer and slow movement it gets tedious and after two tries I gave up.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I did watch the playthrough so I can see that I ended up missing a pretty sweet payoff at the end, so it's a shame it wasn't a little easier to figure out.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Still, I really liked the overall ambience of the game, and once again, great visuals. My game is also about terraformers living on Mars - although this is not something that's actually stated at any point in the game :)"},{"author_name":"ReveLorenfield","author_uid":"15526","time":"Aug 29, 2012 @ 9:43am","epoch":1346233080,"text":"Cool graphics. \r<br\/>I had a hard time figuring out what to do (i only had 2\/4 goals) without your playthrough but It was a nice puzzle to solve."},{"author_name":"TinyPlatypus","author_uid":"12844","time":"Aug 29, 2012 @ 9:01pm","epoch":1346273760,"text":"Incredibly interesting, did get rather lost, though. would be nice to have some little pointer or tutorial."},{"author_name":"Yapikom","author_uid":"7497","time":"Sep 14, 2012 @ 10:36am","epoch":1347618660,"text":"I loved it.
