I love the setting and the mood of the game. Very dystopian! And the take on the theme is very interesting as well.\nThe biggest issue for me is that gameplay-wise it becomes a bit of a waiting-game. More testing your patience than your game-skills. A few more enemy types or challenges would have added a lot!\n\nAnother thing (this is a very small issue though) is about the ninja: he (or she?) should be able to move around more freely than just to the tiles up\/down\/left\/right. It's a ninja after all!!! Same thing goes for carrying a bucket of water and a melon at the same time ;-)\n\nIt was great seeing you at the real world gathering.
