Only the trumpet-melody in the beginning sounded a bit like menacing farts ;) Gameplay itself was a bit frantic and frustrating, probably because I didn't really understand it, so many seemingly complex systems at play, yet that's refreshingly different!\r\rStill a solid entry, proto-RTS, enjoyed it."},{"author_name":"Pusty","author_uid":"55076","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 4:02am","epoch":1440388620,"text":"I like the intro\rNice game :D"},{"author_name":"Halleflux","author_uid":"24741","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 5:04am","epoch":1440392340,"text":"It's difficult to multitask between upgrading organs (as that requires click spamming) and growing (as that requires click spamming).\rHowever, overall, it's a solid game.
