The controls were kind of difficult, because the cube had so much momentum. A quick pointer on how the controls actually work in the beginning would be nice, didn't really understand what was going on until the end of the second level. Still, really cool mechanic! When i got the controls, they were quite fun.

the controls took a bit to get used to, but I didn't play anything like this in the jam so far. You definitely got something original here. I feel like this is a game that is easy to play but hard to master. I didn't beat all the levels but I did at least beat the first level
A little weird to control but love the idea and adherence to the theme. Perfect.
Pretty cool. Could definitely use some tweaking, but a good start! I kept constantly launching through the floor in level 2, so that's maybe a bug. Maybe you should make the force with wich you shoot the ball dependant on how close the cursor is to the cube. That would give you a lot more control. Overall, nice game!

This is interesting , maybe there's a bit to much to collect on the first room
I think the mechanic is cool and I'm having fun launching myself around but it's incredibly hard to control which becomes frustrating when the levels themselves demand a certain level of precision like collecting a bunch of small easy to miss and hard to reach diamonds.
Pretty cool game!
The main mechanic is very polished and addictive and the levels are challenging. With some juicy effects and a better camera perspective, it could be very solid.
Great job! :D
Addictively fun to play. I enjoyed how polished the game feels. For my taste, the main problem is camera, you don't always get your coordinates on Y axis and that's why you always wonder if you are making the right moves to progress. Overall, very cool game, keep the good job.
So cool! I felt like playing a super hard version of mini golf during the entire experience, really liked it.
Sometimes I just felt that the ball/cube were WAY too fast.
Being honest, I think the concept is interesting, but perhaps make the wall higher so the ball won't pass to another room?
Oddly addictive but I had to give up when I fell off the map in the third level. The camera could use some work, it often felt like it didn't show me the most useful part of the map. Pretty good concept though.
