Pretty cute but I didn't feel much depth to the combat or evolution other than a natural linear progression.

Thanks for the comments guys!
I've added support for playing with the keyboard (WASD + arrow keys) which necessitated the change where looking is firing. It does negate the players ability to micro manage the energy of the two separate weapons but I've yet to see anyone make it far enough for it to really matter!
All told, I don't actually like how it feels on the keyboard but I agree, it was isolating too many people. Thanks again!
Brutally difficult with just audio. Would have been better if the bugs had visual cues that faded to the audio cues over the levels.
A crazy polished one at that :)
Heads up to people, this doesn't work with netcat since I forgot to support streamed input.
As a heads, this is best played in a modern MUD client. If you are on windows I recommend MushCLIENT (http://www.gammon.com.au/mushclient/) and on *nix wxMUD (http://wxmud.sourceforge.net/) is a great choice. Playing in telnet (or trying netcat) feels really foreign these days so I don't recommend it :)
This is really fun little inversion of "hunt the bad guy". Took about 10min to beat it but it was a good kick getting there.
Really cool concept. Would have loved if I could keep playing each level if there were remaining boxes for a higher score of some kind. Looking forward to seeing it with more levels!
Lots of fun and just challenging enough
At last! With 20 minutes to spare!

Ridiculously cute and polished. The audio in particular did a great job of accentuating the action without becoming drag over my few sessions.
Hilarious and great. Got some serious vertigo the further I got :D
This is super well done. The pacing feels slow at times, and one of the minigames insta-failed me because the bad thing spawned right under my mouse, but other than that this is solid!
There is no play link?
Really liked the base gameplay. I ended up running out of bombs to solve the map which was a bit frustrating but otherwise this was A+!
This is awesome! I keep getting better and it keeps offering more things to learn :D
