There's a lot of different elements that go together in fairly interesting ways. Well-executed in the gameplay department, and I can say I'm still having fun after quite a few retries.\r\rBut let's have a word about visual presentation. \r\rThere's something about this style that seems very MS Paint-y as far as pixel art goes. Muddy colors, palette all over the place, shading not having much contrast with the environment. Also moving things kinda-but-not-really snapping to the grid - which I guess can be excused as a stylistic gimmick in games not actually based on old hardware - but in combination with everything else, it just comes across as carelessness.\r\rIt's not just about looking pretty, you gotta consider functionality too. Composition-wise, most of the screen is just empty space. And there isn't really any gameplay consequence for everything to be moving like you're on a treadmill, so it's an unnecessary (even misleading) visual cue. Not to talk about how the more urgent threats don't always stand out more.\r\r...Yeah, it's a lot to digest. But I'm not pointing it out to be mean. In fact, I'm hoping you'll find advice like this useful in your future games, so you can give them that extra polish to really complement your already solid design thoughts. \r\rOn the plus side, the audio's OK, seems like you have a good sense of what kind of tune fits the mood."},{"author_name":"piper82","author_uid":"28326","time":"Dec 19, 2015 @ 9:44pm","epoch":1450561140,"text":"absolutely loved the art and music but gameplay could be more forgiving imo. great entry."},{"author_name":"Ittai Manero","author_uid":"59011","time":"Dec 19, 2015 @ 9:49pm","epoch":1450561440,"text":"Really nice entry!
