I enjoyed the game a lot and the steep increase of difficulty adds a lot of fun challenge.\n\nPros:\n- The introduction scene is absolutely amazing and I tended to just watch the generation of the different lines instead of playing the game :)\n- The style of the game was really nice and reminded me of 1 of that old retro games.\n- The having to choose which side to jump to\n\nCons:\n- There is no tutorial so it took me a while to really understand what to do\n\nOverall this was a really nice game and you should be proud of what you achieved. :)","likes":3,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"nusan","author_uid":"1003600","time":"2017-12-06T12:50:47Z","epoch":1512564647,"modified":1512564647,"text":"Nice game, I liked the visual and the simple idea of switching side to get the bonus. The difficulty seems to scale with how many stars you get, but I didn't really understood that until a few minutes. If you just play casually, it quickly becomes a bit boring and infinite, as the difficult will stay low. So I think making the difficulty raise with time would have helped making it more fun, forcing you to take the items to get more damages, and thus increasing the difficulty. But it was fun anyway, keep up the good work!","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"ZhangZhibin","author_uid":"1053930","time":"2017-12-06T14:04:01Z","epoch":1512569041,"modified":1512569041,"text":"Love the graphics.

I never managed to get that kind of powerup. :( Would've been neat since the regular shooting was a little unprecise and sometimes there just was no way to save myself from an incoming obstacle.\n\nI don't entirely get the connection to the theme but I'm guessing, based on the GIF, that that's simply because I just wasn't good enough to \"have more\" as it were. \ud83d\ude1b I'm rather lousy at these.
