With a little polish and refining, this could be a very good puzzle game \r\rCheers,\rIonut(Tyrants.not.found team)"},{"author_name":"guoboism","author_uid":"24432","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 12:45pm","epoch":1450183200,"text":"Great concept.

Nice job!\r\rThe 5-lights puzzle I seemed to complete but didn't understand at all, the 3-4 times it popped up! haha\r\rI also got stuck at one point on the first really big level, after I infected the TV there was no-where else to go and I couldn't seem to scroll the screen back to another branching point. Not sure if that was me screwing up or the game :P"},{"author_name":"omaha","author_uid":"5229","time":"Dec 20, 2015 @ 6:25pm","epoch":1450635600,"text":"Looks like the web link points to a windows executable?

The graphics look nice, the interface was clean, and the funky backing track was good without being too much.\r\rI enjoyed the puzzles, although I think the turn-the-lights-on puzzle needs more of a "you win" effect, sometimes I'd hit something and suddenly it was over. I connected least with that one.\r\rI had fun playing for a while, got through the first two complete levels but then the puzzles looked like they were going to stay the same so I called it a day.\r\rHad a good time though - nice work!"},{"author_name":"thristhart","author_uid":"3164","time":"Dec 22, 2015 @ 12:44am","epoch":1450744740,"text":"I love the style!
