So impressed with how elegant this is. Also helps that the art is very cute and the sound is so well made. Will add that potions on edge pieces are quite tough to reach, a lot of grinding into the corner is required.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Simanis","author_uid":"1065957","time":"2019-05-02T17:40:13Z","epoch":1556818813,"modified":1556818813,"text":"Thanks a lot, @jam373!

Fun little game for sure.\n\nIn one of my attempts, the hunter got stuck outside the map: (He was twitching back and forth every frame.) It also appears to be possible to squeeze out of the map yourself, probably due to the high speed of the player character.\n\nOther than that though, nice work. I assume the music belongs to PoE, so wouldn't really be fair to take it into consideration, but it did fit quite well.\n\n![firefox_GoOwrHdVCs.png](\/\/\/raw\/e68\/3\/z\/24892.png)","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Simanis","author_uid":"1065957","time":"2019-05-04T16:38:39Z","epoch":1556987919,"modified":1556987919,"text":"@binaryspark I wonder how did you manage to achieve that :D I know it's possible because of how bad I'm at using colliders, but still :D Yes, the music belongs to PoE, so opted out of audio category.
