Two minutes into the game and my 8 and 7 year olds are like, "Is this all you do, is go back and forth?". Ten minutes in and we're each reading, out loud, the lines of the characters we picked. They loved it, and want more! Thanks for the story!
Picture the mobile app Game of War, and subtract the super strong attacking newbies, and not nearly as much teleporting to hide your location. This game is what the app could be.
Too many obstacles in the way to get decent speed. Storm clouds directly above speed gates, really? Also if you hit anything, your forward capsule acts like a magnet and sticks to it as you spin round and round. Reduce the clutter, or zoom the screen out so we can see further ahead. Fun game though.
There is a spanner...in the attic.
