Damn, this is awesome! Can't believe how polished you were able to get things for the jam, well done!
Thanks for the kind words!
Wow this is sooo polished, the art is amazing!!! I would love to see this becoming a full game. The only complaint is that I couldn't clearly see what the powerups were, but maybe it was intentional to make it more like a lottery. Good job!
Thank you for playing! Yeah, the vague powerups were intentional, but I'm still deciding on whether or not I'll stick with that going forward.
Pretty, has very nice style, controls are smooth - trickshots are fun to do! Would be nice if it kept last used layout when I have the setup I want and just need to execute the plan better.
Thank you for the game, enjoyed it!
Thanks for playing and for the feedback! Planning to add the option to reset to your last layout.
Fun and relaxing. Loved it.
Thanks for playing!
Really simple but addicting game - absolutely loved it! With more levels I can see this becoming a really addictive mobile game. Nice to have power ups between levels as it adds variety to the simple gameplay mechanics. Really nice art-style with the CRT filter, and 1-bit style level artwork is fantastic! Great job!
Thanks so much for the kind words! Appreciate you playing!
awesome presentation and great game design, very fun. although i was confused at first. had to fail once to get what i was supposed to do. great job!
This was awesome!!
Really appreciate you playing!
WOW! This games presentation and concept are outstanding! I did end up giving up pretty early. I think a hint on where your balls trajectory is would help, also have it not reset your placements every time you fail. Other than that this is an incredibly well put together game :D
Thank you for playing! I understand - difficulty is a little unbalanced as of now. Definitely implementing the ability to repeat your bumper layout after a reset, and I want to add a laser sight powerup to help with trajectory/aiming too.
This is a great-looking game! I love the colors. The music, sound effects, and visuals all come together to create almost an otherworldly atmosphere. Great job, to everyone involved!
Thanks so much for playing!
A+ for presentation!!! Very interesting gameplay. I'd suggest maybe a shot line while you're setting things up so you can gauge things a little better. Then you can reward the player for settings things up smarter instead of brute forcing!!! Would love to see more.
Thanks for playing! Actually a shot line (laser sight) was a power up I want to add in the future!
I think this one has got real potential for an expanding upon for a full release. Already has so many cool ideas jam packed in the current bite sized package. Well done!!

Thanks for the kind words, I hope to expand on it after the jam! More levels, powerups, and mechanics are already bouncing around in my brain haha. Stay tuned!
Love the art and the gameplay was addicting, this game was such a vibe nice job!
Thank you for playing!
killer idea! A fun and challenging little game(:
Thanks so much!
Great visual style, postprocessing, and particle effects combined with a straightforward game loop with a lot of potential for player creativity and replayability makes Fugue Shot a very well-rounded game. Well done!
Thanks so much for playing!
Fun, challenging (for me at least), and great presentation overall. Everything fit together very nicely. I can think of tons of Peggle and/or Peglin fans who would also appreciate this game - I'm definitely going to be sharing the link for it!
Thanks so much for playing!
Aww it was just getting started! Love the concept a lot, super fun and great juice too. Firework ability is the best one lol.
Haha yeah I was hoping to add a couple more levels but you know, time limit and all.
Firework ability is super fun but needs some balance in my opinion, for the purpose of those 5 levels it's a bit of an immediate win
Very aesthetically pleasing game. I love the feels and vibe. It's so comforting.
Thank you for playing and for the nice words! Your game blew me away
really beautiful game in every aspect- the music, visuals, gameplay, the little art in the corner & level names... truly meditative. and based on these comments, i need to play again to try out more of the powerups! i could definitely play this one for hours. it feels like this game could even lend itself to random levels with the way it works, though of course these handcrafted levels are excellent and i love how much care went into matching the behavior of paddles with the level art/names.
at one point i wondered whether being able to reset to the way you placed things would be nice, so that you could tweak a previous build, but i sort of like how resetting every time makes things more spontaneous, just try out other builds on a whim.
Really appreciate you trying the game out and your nice comments! The game's artist (tomisit0) was truly on another level for this one.
And yeah, I've been spending all week brainstorming how this could be translated to a more random level format to lean into the roguelite thing a bit harder. I'll keep thinking and will hopefully be able to add some fun changes after the jam.
Thanks again!
Got the fireworks powerup and popped off, felt unstoppable. GOOD GAME GOOD JOB
Thank you for playing, it was a blast and super insightful watching you give it a shot!
