Really enjoy the \"missed\" shots creating new walls restricting the area you have even more.\nVisually it is really nice, and also the sounds fit it very well.\nRuns very fluent as well. :)\n\nOne Bug I found that sometimes movement got locked. When I pressed W and clicked my mouse at the same time it locked the movement. So I would go endlessly in that direction unless I press W again. (same for the other keys A S and D). Does not happen everytime but occasionally.\n\nOther than that really nice entry! Gonna play a few more rounds now :D ","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Thought Reactor","author_uid":"1001022","time":"2018-08-13T14:07:22Z","epoch":1534169242,"modified":1534169242,"text":"@oneplusone Thanks for the bug report!
