Then i thought it was cute that he can't jump very high when tall.

This LD is producing a lot of games that are &quot;both easy and hard&quot;. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>I know, it's prob random gen, but if you &quot;pseudo-treat it as psych-warfare&quot; if you think you see &quot;1 opening to grow&quot; don't fall into the &quot;trap&quot;. Stay small and deal with the 7 grounders! \r<br\/>\r<br\/>Then when it looks like you've got a legit window, grab points.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I made it over 10,000 a couple times before I began to do other things."},{"author_name":"colinator27","author_uid":"61545","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 12:28pm","epoch":1450182180,"text":"Game is awesome; the humorous idea makes me laugh."},{"author_name":"SadSmile","author_uid":"49998","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 1:23pm","epoch":1450185480,"text":"Nice gmae.
