Once I focused of exploring, it was really nice to see the changes of environment and find the odd interesting rock formation. Had the game focused on environmental storytelling with a good soundtrack, this could become a real gem!","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Monstr","author_uid":"1106569","time":"2019-10-07T14:04:23Z","epoch":1570457063,"modified":1570457063,"text":"Interesting stuff. It was good that you added the extra modes. I feel like the exploration aspect with the biomes and stuff was kind of wasted because there didn't seem to be any reason to explore the world, especially since enemies spawned around you anyway and the giant crystal didn't seem hard to find.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Abacus","author_uid":"1161599","time":"2019-10-07T21:08:35Z","epoch":1570482515,"modified":1570482515,"text":"Cool game.
