Once you find some pieces it gets better. I actually did not want to play another time to find all the pieces because it is kind of boring to walk around. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>I really like the move sliding it does when walking. \r<br\/>Some snakes would be cool that you would have to dodge or anything that keeps you motivated. In the end, well it really does a good job getting you the deserted experience ;)"},{"author_name":"ranklar","author_uid":"3268","time":"Dec 21, 2010 @ 4:18am","epoch":1292904780,"text":"Decent game, a little boring running around looking for the village to save me, but decent.  I like the oasis that filled you up, and there was plenty of water to do a search pattern (since the desert had edges).  Wish it had sounds and more of a story... what were those things I picked up in the desert?  Would have been nice to know.  Good job though, decent result."},{"author_name":"xra","author_uid":"3278","time":"Dec 21, 2010 @ 6:35am","epoch":1292913000,"text":"I began to lose hope until I found a piece, my only suggestion is coming up with a way to give water when the Player is very thirsty, create some just off screen in a radius, something to cause the Player to feel a constant up down change in safety and anxiety (close to dying)"},{"author_name":"refrag","author_uid":"1277","time":"Dec 21, 2010 @ 7:16pm","epoch":1292958660,"text":"Nice little game.
