I was angry at the wasted 30 seconds of opening licensed 3rd party software listings, but I stayed through to the end of the credits roll, laughing until I cried.

I think the opening logo sequence is too short. Also it's missing agreement to 2-3 EULAs that you have to scroll down all the way for the accept button to get enabled. And the epilepsy warning. And the disclaimer that it's all a work of fiction.

I'm recording this 30 second clip onto an entire recording device with a 64gb SD card. I'll leave it on this rock for others to find. Don't worry, I have 11 other devices to record my short messages. Wait, the mine, it's glowing! I can't--

So good. Looking forward to level 2 so we can find out what happened in Singapore.

Is there a help card? Or, how do you turn off the CC captions? They obscure the bottom of the play field on my Mactop.

It really does need a store with skins, several kinds of currencies, and loot boxes!
