Fun game, really good progression so not too difficult at the start, but ramping up later. Well done!

You chose a great music track to accompany this, and I think you ramp up the difficulty at a very good speed. Nicely done!! :)

Wow I did not know I could have so much fun moving a bowling pin around with my mouse! I replayed this a bunch before I realized that I needed to put it down and play other submissions haha. It was very fun and satisfying to try to squeeze through the windows of open lane especially in the later levels.

Great game!

I think the mechanic is simple and fun, and liked the interesting use of mouse movement to represent you as the last standing pin. Overall, nice job on the game!

Quite fun! The choice of music helps to make it more addictive to keep trying!

The main thing I would suggest is varying the speed of balls per level. Because every obstacle moves at the same speed, except for a brief moment between level transitions, the fact that they player can move left and right doesn't have a mechanical use. This will probably make coding the game logic more difficult, since you've clearly set it up avoid any impossible situations (where there's no gap for the player to fit through,) but I feel that it would be worth it. :)

Thanks for playing and thanks for the feedback! I had ideas for additional mechanics which I de-prioritised, so that I could polish the game before the deadline   ๐Ÿ˜„

Surprisingly fun and engaging for how simple it is to play. The difficulty ramps up nicely. I managed to get to level 15 on my best attempt.

Developer

Wow! I thought I did well getting to level 13. The crown goes to you. Congrats!  ๐Ÿ‘‘
