The music and soundeffects are quite nice as well and swimming in the water was cool too! The bad parts: It's not really finished, it doesn't really fit the theme and you don't really know what to do and why. Overall I quite like the game, mainly because of the hero, the water and the music."},{"author_name":"Shigor","author_uid":"5242","time":"May 1, 2012 @ 7:20pm","epoch":1335899700,"text":"Very good music, otherwise it's just a seed for a platformer game. I liked picking up more skills giving it a bit more interesting progress then in generic platformer"},{"author_name":"Tom 7","author_uid":"1984","time":"May 7, 2012 @ 1:04am","epoch":1336352340,"text":"This game is a lot more fun than it looked, and it had really great music. Thanks for the warning about the boss; I would have tried a lot. What was the (T) in the top left for? Another red herring?"},{"author_name":"chamberlainpi","author_uid":"4398","time":"May 7, 2012 @ 7:27pm","epoch":1336418520,"text":"@Tom 7: Haha that Red Herring was basically a placeholder for doing a Popup (or Popin rather?) in the game for various cases, when you pickup an item, or when you begin the boss-battle. But, unfortunately ran short of time (and motivation!) and left it floating in the top left corner of the game lol. Nice catch btw - didn't hear much about many player being THAT much adventurous in my game :) Thanks for the music appreciation too everyone!"},{"author_name":"matthias_zarzecki","author_uid":"3880","time":"May 11, 2012 @ 8:53pm","epoch":1336769280,"text":"The boss-introduction was great :)"}],"images":["ld23\/4398-7bafb85c54e84891b83050deeeb32604.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/pierrechamberlain.ca\/blog\/2012\/04\/ludumdare-23-surrounded-by-snails","text":"Windows"},{"url":"http:\/\/pierrechamberlain.ca\/blog\/2012\/04\/ludumdare-23-surrounded-by-snails","text":"Web"},{"url":"http:\/\/pierrechamberlain.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/LD23_SurroundedBySnails.zip","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"31306","g_author":"4398","g_event":"LD23","g_eventkey":"10","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"31336","g_title":"Surrounded by Snails","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"6","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/123793\/4398-shot0.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"About 1.5 hours late, but I got it in!\r\n\r\nSo in this tiny world, you must collect lost powerups to make your way back to your normal size self!
