The art style is very nice and clean and the game play is intuitive. I did find the energy bar frustrating considering you are given such a limited viewing range. I also found that the signs were in the way sometimes and the only way to clear them was to commit a precious move. Overall fun and pretty though :)"},{"author_name":"matthias_zarzecki","author_uid":"3880","time":"Aug 23, 2011 @ 9:03am","epoch":1314089880,"text":"Lovely astehtics, with the low-fi environements, comic-graphics and bobbing player :-)"},{"author_name":"rawbits","author_uid":"5167","time":"Aug 24, 2011 @ 12:39am","epoch":1314146040,"text":"Epic win! I think this game is so simple that it doesn't need any repairing only some other features, music, more levels and a level designer to make a complete sellable game. Nicely done.

The sound was kinda glitchy, especially when running fast (Windows version, the web version was even worse for that). And I don't mean the glitchiness\/grittyness of the tune.\r\rThe good.\rThe graphics were impressive and fun to just look at, down to the meter bar and the text boxes! The music is just awesome. I actually left the game running in the background so I can listen to it. A 5-6 second loop of gritty lo-fi bliss. :)\r\rOverall: a solid game with average gameplay. As you say, Epic WIN!\r\rLooking at your blog posts.. I think I prefer the newer style (hard to say, the other style looked neat and colourful too). Perhaps you could have used the picket fences? Paint them animated rainbow or something (not an actual suggestion, though it *would* look trippy with the sinusoidal landscape)."},{"author_name":"siebharinn","author_uid":"1450","time":"Aug 28, 2011 @ 1:34am","epoch":1314494940,"text":"Loved the visual style.
