Just tested this and thanks for uploading the windows build version of the game. Really nice graphics and feel, especially those ambient environmental sounds. A great twist on the 9 pin bowling. My highest score was 26 seconds. Simple controls and nicely paced mechanics. I see a lot of potential in this for instance you can add more thematic sets with matching pins , balls and billboards in the arena when the player has survived for a given time like 60 seconds of survival unlocks the Shopping Arena, or 90 seconds of survival unlocks the Arcade arena etc. Nice gameplay that encourages you to comeback and survive for a little longer. Keep up the good work :)
[Note: The web version was giving a runtime error in Chrome version 125.0.6422.142, but is working fine now after clearing the cache and restarting that. In the Firefox browser its working fine and the windows build version is working fine as well]
Thank you! Out of visuals I'm most proud of the pin movement animation as I had no idea how to animate it :D
Thank you! To be honest, I was surprised how many people thought of bowling :D
After finishing the game I've realized it's too hard, but I'm still happy that I can see progress in my game development capabilities. At start I didn't even think of adding glowing circles that give extra time, but I realized if I don't add something players could just stay in last row and it would defeat the purpose of other rows.
And I thought I was bad at bowling when I'm on the other end of the lane! My best legitimate score is 59 seconds (even though the 'best' score seems to be whichever your last score is.) Moving forward and back is difficult to get the hang of, I was always getting lured in by the siren's call of those glowing rings.
But then I found out you don't actually run out of time, and got this score!
Quite fun to play, with good vibes! I really liked the animation of the pin when it jumps positions. :)
Damn, you are right! I forgot to add game over logic for when the time runs out and highest score logic :D Thankfully the game is still somewhat playable even with these two blunders from my end. The animation took me like an hour because I had to think "how would a pin even move and how do you make an animation for a pin".
Thank you for playing, I appreciate the time you've spent !
Thank you very much! I'm quite happy how the mechanics turned out. I've never done anything like this before so your comment makes me happy :)
