I like how you can combine multiple zeppelins into a single punch, but it's a bit hard to see sometimes whether that will work. Perhaps a 2D top-down view would work better? I like the music, really adds to the frantic atmosphere."},{"author_name":"WubAlliance","author_uid":"54258","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 9:18pm","epoch":1440537180,"text":"Nicely done. Like the graphics and the view style (camera in front and on the ground). Only thing that I might change is maybe slow down the increase in zeppelins a little bit: the difficult ramps up a little bit too fast IMO. Very fun though, gives me memories from when I was a kid learning how to type."},{"author_name":"Twinters","author_uid":"43963","time":"Aug 26, 2015 @ 1:39am","epoch":1440552840,"text":"Nice graphical effects and animation!

I loved the two fist mechanic, and that you had to wait until the fist actually reached the blimp before pressing the next key.  Also really liked the end where it became about choosing the right key to punch multiple zeppelins at the same time, and the shifting lighting was a nice touch.  Would have loved the difficulty to scale up a little faster in the middle of the game, mostly because the ending pacing was my favorite part!"},{"author_name":"CheesyRamen","author_uid":"23140","time":"Aug 28, 2015 @ 4:07pm","epoch":1440777720,"text":"That was really fun, with how you presented the art, music, and theme.

I wonder if it would be also fun if the monster's hands could remember sequences or targets to hit - then you could go braver into a lot of enemy zeppelins. Also - zeppelins with 2-3 letter words?\r<br\/>A very nice game, well done, once again. :)"},{"author_name":"radmars","author_uid":"18627","time":"Sep 7, 2015 @ 7:56pm","epoch":1441655460,"text":"Nice!
