"The nightmare fuel is real! Visual style is smashing, I so dig it." - mvasilkov

"I see it's in the unfinished category, and maybe that's why I have no clue what's going on here :D You've got something interesting going on with the graphics" - johnedvard

"Is this art, feels like its art!" - tyler6699

"The overloaded visual style is very intriguing! Where does the interactive web page stop and the game start?" - herebefrogs

"Love the way the characters are made up of primitives and lettering." - picosonic

"This game definitely has one of the most unique art styles I've come across. Looks like you were going for a side scroller with z-axis movement. And you're somehow transpiling python to js? Very intriguing! Would love to see the game finished." - rottencandy
