        @redenchilada But seriously who hurt you to make you program a game like this?

          @northernnarwhal I was 15 and going through a very stressful house move at the time.

            @redenchilada Oh, well I guess that kind of shows in the game. It makes more sense, actually.

              @northernnarwhal A lot of the issues can also just be chalked up to me not being that great at level design as a kid. The benchmark was "if I can beat it, it's good", which leads to stuff like the first room.

                @redenchilada Yeah, level design is definitely the biggest issue here. I don't think the mines aren't a very well constructed mechanic either.

                  @northernnarwhal They'd be better if the shrapnel flew out in a set pattern, probably. Letting RNG decide whether you hit something or blow yourself up is pretty dumb.

                    @redenchilada Yeah, they're kind of unpredictable so there isn't a really intuitive way to use them. Also given how you have to set them down they don't lend themselves well to the level design.

                @redenchilada This game is tough but I think that's the best part
