Several rooms are connected together to make a level, you had to find the key to the next elevator, then find the end of the level. But as you may expected I encountered several problems that make me scale down my scope.  \n\n","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"netguy204","author_uid":"1012376","time":"2018-08-15T11:23:03Z","epoch":1534332183,"modified":1534332183,"text":"@thewustache This was fun! The weakest part of the game were random move heavy monsters because the goal of waiting for them to suicide wasn't very interesting. I'd advocate full determinism in a game like this. Remove M and J and add 'jump towards, jump away, move orthogonal to the player, mirror the player, opposite mirror the player. It would be cool to have buttons and cards that only monsters can use so that I can try to manipulate them further.

I like the level of strategy you have to use when navigating the level to trap the enemies while leaving yourself a path to the door. I also like the amount of enemy variety, although more distinct visual designs could have helped the player differentiate between them. I like the little wiggle the character does when he jumps, although the visuals became a bit hard to see when the when the camera zoomed out. Also, the lack of music and sound was a bit disappointing. Overall, this is a solid game that I enjoyed.
