It'd be cool to have different videos as z6v said and some sounds.

You should at least have given instructions in the game itself so the player does not have to read your 'manual', meaning the description.

Comment your score below.\r\n\r\nFor people of my generation the ancestors to the flash drives and cds of today may seem like ancient technology. The VHS tape feels like an incredibly bulky way to store data.\r\n\r\nIn this game you can go back to the most tedious way to reset a medium: rewinding. A \"clip\" will be played (some humorous comments about vhs tapes) at the end (maximum 6 seconds) it will be rewinded at double the speed. Your goal is to pause by hitting [space] at the exact start of the video and not go too far into the title screen. After you get your rank hit any key to try again.\r\n\r\nComment your closest score below!\r\n\r\nThis Ludum Dare was my first ld. I have wanted to take part quite some time now sadly I never had the time. Even this competition I only had 3 1\/2 hours to make this game so I hope it isn't too terrible for a first timer and under time pressure :)\r\n\r\nSomethinBoutGames","title":"VHS"}
