Ha, good joke. Definitely better on higher res monitors.

Wow, this was beautiful! I loved the graphics and atmosphere. Got stuck a few times on stage and it was hard to tell where I was sometimes, but definitely an interesting experience!
Great little game with nice mood and environment!
Great for a first game! (This was mine too haha) Controls were a bit slow (animations too) but the concept is good! Fun little game!
This is really awesome! Graphics are great, mechanics are solid, sort of a mesh between the Game & Wario minigame and Spyparty. Great job!
Nice holiday touch! Hard to understand what the orders were with the hints but eventually got it. Pretty awesome! (I really like the piano when I got things right and what happens in the end!)
Good graphics and audio, really matched well! Super easy to pick up and play and pretty fun (though I did end up just spamming the keys after a bit haha)!
Cool concept and really fun game! Took me a second to understand the controls and it got really hard but it's great!
I love these kinds of games and this one was quite a bit of fun! The ricocheting bullets definitely brought a challenge. I noticed your post-mortem on the music portion which was interesting to read through so 3 things relating to that:
1. Keep at the song writing, it's good, but improvements can always be head (and kudos for including music, adds SO much more to the game!)
2. Your song fits the mood well for the most part and you had a good feel for contour, but some chord/note choices seemed out of place and brought me out of it
3. The bullet sfx for some reason kept dragging my mind away from the song itself (since they fired in a different beat than the song was) This could probably just be me being weird.
Really enjoyable! Great job!
Really liked the slight audio feedback for when a toggle has to be switched! Cool music and sounds and a really interesting idea!
The sound and music were awesome in this coupled with the sweet graphics! Fun game and interesting mechanics!
Really interesting concept! Would be cool if the transitions were shorter or if they froze everyone. Animations when the arena changed were cool too!
It was very similar to the demo for Gods Will Be Watching which I enjoyed but I wish some of the mechanics here strayed more from that game. Very nice mood and atmosphere!
Great platformer with sweet graphics and a clever take on the theme! Dug the overall feel (plus robots are awesome)
Fun tower defense game, like the expanding-ness of it. Nice music and graphics
Light mechanic is very cool! Harder in the beginning then near the end
42 coins later, a pretty interesting game. Seems easier with certain random layouts and I wish that jumping was a little less "floaty" coming down, but I had a lot of fun trying to grab the coins before time ran out!
Very cool, definitely spent way too much time playing this through haha. Would be nice to build some ambience with the timer counting down
Quirky little game that reminded me of some ones I played as a kid!
Awesome! Really liked it (though it got pretty hard really quickly!) Music was nice as well
Nice graphics and music! Interesting story and take on the theme
Solid platform and fun! Overall aesthetic is nice and super old school feel to it.
Even though it's WIP I can see some really fun potential. I really like the big hits when doing the combos and the exaggerated physics with it!
Pretty fun lemmings clone with some nice animations, I like the idea of moving the terrain instead of the characters themselves
Ha this was pretty funny. Cat sound was kind of loud but it was entertaining overall! Hard to hit the bug, I think mine ended up just jumping into the fan..
Tried to play but got same error as another user "There was a problem parsing the package" - Nexus 5, v5.0 (Awesome to see an android game though!)
The terrain/background is pretty awesome though it's a bit hard to tell what's happening in the game with the character/enemies.
Concept is cool and I really like the look/art. I don't think there are enough cues for the rhythm and it's difficult to know when to start hitting the arrow keys so I kept failing.
Interesting setting. Controls were a bit awkward on PC. BG song during game was sick but it and sfx were not the greatest fit for me.
I like concept a lot though sometimes the asteroids would go a little off course and I'd have to sit and wait. The resource management wasn't the most intuitive for me so it took a bit to figure out, but I played a bunch of waves before finally killing off the population (so it was fun for sure!)
Pretty fun platformer and the controls felt nice. I think the theme was a bit off but I did like the misleading beginning (plus the hard way which was worth it haha). SFX were sort of grating when playing through (like the lasers). Reminds me a lot of N+ :)
Love the take on the theme! The differently generated rooms each time I played and the graphics were nice except for the camera shake needs some tweaking. Overall fun!

Like the animations a lot and the attention to reverb detail for the footsteps ;) Can't wait to see it when it's done
