Staff Review from the website

Freakin sweet!

You've put a lot of work into this, and it is turning out beautifully. There are a few bugs and glitches, but you hardly even notice them.

The graphics were used very nicely, I liked how when you walked over grass it got smushed and when you moved away it bent back up. You implemented many things very well, such as the scanning - create some custom way of displaying scans though that was irritating,

Also, dont combine the beams, split them into different ones. That would be much better and more fun than having one 'all-use' beam

The other people do bring up some interesting things, like how the leech gun basically makes you invincible. Also, the space jump made traversing anywhere extremely easy.
