Gameplay: The gameplay was confusing because there wasnt a tutorial. Sometimes player 1s turn is skipped and that made it more confusing.
Graphics: The graphics were pretty good.
Audio: The music was good but didnt loop.
Innovation: Its pretty good because pool games arent made that much and this was different than most pool games.
Theme: Pool but with planets and moons.
Overall: Good game for 2 days you can definitely improve though.
Impressive graphics!
I was a bit confused about the controls at first. Also I find it's really hard to distinguish the moon from the planets.
Otherwise, nice game. The music fitted the theme and the gameplay itself was fun! Good job!
Nice concept, I wouldn't have thought about that!
It took me some time to find out what I should do. A tutorial would have been nice, explaining where to put the ball to make a stronger hit.
The graphics are amazing, and the theme is really clever, I'll give you that. Although I was very confused, there was nothing teaching you how to play the game and for some reason, I couldn't play as player 1, only as player 2, and in the end player 1 won anyways, lmao! I read the game page and understood why player 1 won, then. It also says that this was made in 2 days, which explains the roughness. But yeah, you have a good foundation here, add more mechanics and levels and you'll have an amazing game. And a tutorial too, of course. Great job though!
Love the black holes as the pockets! Definitely clever to have pool in space. Good theme interpretation of "Moon Shot" haha
Pros:
Improvements:
Good stuff, I'd very much appreciate checking out my game as well! =) Good stuff! https://avatar-nick.itch.io/moon-blob
Once I figured things out it was a good game! The graphics are good, the the music too. Was the music not set to loop though? It didn't for me on linux via wine. But it did start up again on a new game after I finished. It would also have been nice to be able to exit the game via a menu popup on escape.
Beautiful looking game, especially for doing it in 2 days. I like the concept, had a little trouble understanding when I was placing a star, when executing, etc... and the music seemed to cut out after a few minutes. So basically, I experienced a few quirks in the gameplay, but a neat game! The flashy touched are done exceptionally well and offer exactly what I would like to see to make a "pool" game interesting and fitting to the theme.
