Because it actually is a quite nice game mechanic.\n\nI love the ascii animations, especially the 3D map and the intro. The soundtrack also helps setting the mood.\n\nThe bouncing\/reflecting of the bullets could be improved since the angles are incorrect, it would help with playing the game more tactically.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":787243,"author_name":"GlorifiedPig","author_uid":"glorifiedpig","epoch":1649155010,"text":"My highest rated game so far, you've hit the vibe very well.
