I love the clean, sleek visual style of it. The central mechanic is a brilliant idea and its so well used in the various mazes. The resting spots seem really well chosen to give you enough time to be planning out your next move so you never feel like you're just waiting for the timer to tick down. The music is  excellently chill and all the sound effects fit in really nicely.\n\nAbsolutely brilliant!","format":"md","likes":2,"spam":"N"},{"id":854533,"author_name":"SimplePotential","author_uid":"simplepotential","epoch":1664881568,"text":"Nice little game, not too difficult and easy to understand.

Levels are good, the last one is probably the best. I think levels could be a little bit shorter but as smart as the last one. Overall, fun game. Two minor ideas:\n- after finishing level it could be better to go straight to the \"levels\" section in the menu,\n- sometimes it is annoying when I start from the safe zone too early and get reset, maybe including some buffer would be a good idea.\n\n\nBugs:\n- in the HTML5 version movement was slower and it was unplayable, idk if it's something wrong with my browser (Chrome) or with the game itself, PC version works as intended,\n- in level 3 I was able to go through red closed wall before I got any power-up, maybe it somehow saved the previous one from the previous level.\n\nAnyway, good game!","format":"md","likes":2,"spam":"N"},{"id":854715,"author_name":"Aaron Smith","author_uid":"aaron-smith","epoch":1664882705,"text":"so wonderfully clean and thoughtful in design.
