marble game is a cool idea for the theme, and I really liked the visual style of the marble matches. you've obviously got a few bugs in there currently collision/audio wise. I couldn't win some matches even though I was definitely knocking more out than my opponent, so sadly I wasn't able to progress very far.

it was very difficult to figure out how to change marbles, but thanks for including button remapping. I had to change the arrow keys to stop the browser window from scrolling the game out of view.

art is great though. totally nailed the gameboy style

nice work

A bit rough around the edges but it's a fun idea!  Neat that you'd try a collectable thing for the jam.

It's really cute! Maybe the marble is not powerful enough, but I like the idea

I really like the art style, and I didn’t expect a marble game. Great game!

i was really confused about how to use the boxkun cus i would open my inventory and interact and it'd change from "Use?N" to "Y" so i thought that just meant i was selecting it to use, rather than actually using it. i did figure it out eventually when i saw my stat change to have new marbles. i have to echo bam tam's comment, the marbles got stuck for me too and the sound was not good. overall interesting and i hope to see some tweaks for clarity and the marble sound in the future :) good job!

Definitely original, but I felt a bit too powerless with my boxkun. Every throw meant suffering. Music is great!

Nice art and music, gamplay is quite fun, but The marbles kept getting stuck together and making a really horrible noise and meant I kept dragging marbles back inside the ring with me.
