The font fit, the graphics were good, the sound was good, the font choice was on-point, it was a great game. I also liked how the level\/world was designed.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Although it is an enjoyable game, I do have some things I didn't like. First of all, the borderless window is a bit annoying. I had to move my taskbar just to play the game.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I'm assuming the game keeps playing forever, but the &quot;Global Trend Knowledge&quot; bar did make me think that it's just a really long game."},{"author_name":"repstyle","author_uid":"11700","time":"Aug 30, 2016 @ 2:49pm","epoch":1472568240,"text":"@leondryaso : \r<br\/>Can you describe what happened exactly ?"},{"author_name":"repstyle","author_uid":"11700","time":"Aug 30, 2016 @ 2:53pm","epoch":1472568480,"text":"@RubiksJr :\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Mmh it is strange that you get a borderless window because it is made to be fullscreen.

Took me a bit to figure out I needed to click directly on the city to send the spy there instead of just nearby it. Also liked the balance of choosing whether to send my fastest spy, or a slower spy so they could get a speed upgrade. It seemed to go on longer than it should have. Might be more enjoyable if there was extra things to worry about, like having each bit of news having a rating that effected how much the awareness meter went up or down."},{"author_name":"metalhaze","author_uid":"113428","time":"Aug 30, 2016 @ 9:38pm","epoch":1472592780,"text":"The game was great, it was very easy to pick up and understand the game. I didn't even need to look at the controls and i understood the objectives and what to do.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I had great fun sending the spies around and it felt good juggling movement. The stars were a great addition and having different spies was cool as well.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The only thing i could add was that if you had more to do  the game could be even more engaging. Perhaps gaining more spies or having extra objectives.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Great job!"},{"author_name":"simple_blue","author_uid":"109556","time":"Aug 30, 2016 @ 11:22pm","epoch":1472599020,"text":"game makes no sence, dont know what i was doing. i dont see how you could improve it either, id go with a different consept. sorry."},{"author_name":"Xinelu","author_uid":"38942","time":"Aug 31, 2016 @ 1:57am","epoch":1472608320,"text":"I like strategy games, is very brave of you too make it 100% :D good job!"},{"author_name":"Vaiaphraim","author_uid":"55795","time":"Aug 31, 2016 @ 10:49am","epoch":1472640240,"text":"You were aware of LD36!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>It took me a long time to figure out, how to actually win - until I noticed that the awareness meter was going up for each solved mission.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Cool idea with the boost stars, but how the speed worked in general wasn't too clear. The boost is supposed to only work for a short time, yes, but in general, the speed seemed to vary a lot. A bit more information about that would have been great!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I'd really enjoy some extra challenge, e.g. enemy agents roaming the map, so you need to leave some area for a while to avoid getting caught (just an idea), or even letting them &quot;steal&quot; the news, reducing your awareness levels.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>All in all, a nice minigame - well done!"},{"author_name":"Mathiouza","author_uid":"63770","time":"Aug 31, 2016 @ 2:48pm","epoch":1472654580,"text":"Very adictive game !
