I think there could be more suns, but maybe I'm just bad at snake. Also, it would be nice if there would be some kind of way to enhance your "sun-catching skill", as it gets almost impossible very quickly to grab sun at all once you get higher. Very good game, loved it!"},{"author_name":"mlepage","author_uid":"61867","time":"Dec 14, 2015 @ 6:46pm","epoch":1450118460,"text":"Nice! Some feedback...\r\rI like the game, it's fun!\r\rTooltips are hard to read over other text, less transparency maybe.\r\rPress any button to continue doesn't accept mouse button.\r\rWhen playing, it interrupts to show some more tutorial text, but I immediately hit a button (I was playing) so I didn't get to read it. I had to do the tutorial four times to read it, before I could see how to grow a leaf.\r\rThere are times when the white text is on the white (right) half of the screen so it is unreadable. Actually, maybe that's a bug, or my LOVE is slightly incompatible? Because my screen looks different."},{"author_name":"Reggianito","author_uid":"61928","time":"Dec 14, 2015 @ 8:19pm","epoch":1450124040,"text":"Super cute. Music is nice, gameplay is fun.

You covered all bases; the only gripe is that maybe the player starts with just too little sugar to make the game as accessible as it could be.

Balance is really harsh, and it's far too easy to die right away. I feel like the suns in particular were often simply impossible to grab, and the early game was too unforgiving as a result.\r\rGood job though, nailed the theme, and great to see a fellow lovecraftian. <3"},{"author_name":"HUMANICS","author_uid":"47628","time":"Dec 28, 2015 @ 6:32pm","epoch":1451327220,"text":"Really addicting game!
