Fantastic submission! Plays smoothly, easy to understand, ramps up well and the presentation is top notch.

Developer

Thank you Dip, it means a lot!

Really good game ! I’ve had a blast placing the different items so the robot friend could win in one strokes in every level (even if the fifth level was a little difficult due to indeterministic physics depending on the number & position of the objects). Overall 10/10 for me !

Developer(+1)

Thanks Hax, we really appreciate it! Yeah, I feel that level 5 was the hardest, but maybe also the most fun haha, thanks for the feedback as well!

Cool concept, nice art, well scoped.

Would love to see an extended version with more intricate mechanics!

Developer

thanks! Me and the team are thinking of it, as we really liked the current result, lets see

Good fun game guys, clean solid execution, seem challenging to pull off for a Jam project but came together very nicely, Congrats!

Developer

Thanks! It was challenging for sure haha, last build submitted 15minutes before the (original) deadline. The fact that the team was experienced with jams helped a lot, for sure

Really really nice game! The graphics, music, idea and gameplay are great and reminded me of thekind of games I were playing as a kid! Very nostalgic for me :D

And also the other sounddesigns and animations were really nice and made it feel so put together (the itch.io page is really nice aswell! So great work all of you guys!^

Here are some things that I have stumbled across while playing that I would be really happy to see fixed in an update:

- In level 3 the ball repeatedly got stuck on the corner of the hole, I fixed it in game by putting a box so it didnt get trapped there

- The ramps phisique and the "line" of the ball didnt match. The ball in game flies way more shallow than expected by the line 

- The feeling of the phisique when the ball hits an surface from above feel off, even though I like that it doesnt bounce back from walls or boxes (when hit sideways) I would like it to roll down a ramp instead of just smashing into it and not moving an inch

- other than that? I am really happy that I got to play your game! Great work and especially GREAT work in only 48 hours! :D

Thanks Pebbles!

This is a very impressive game for a 48h jam. It is a lot of fun messing around with the physics of the ball (I mainly used bumpers and speed bossts for the final levels). If you want to improve this game in the future I would suggest to add a zoom feature because some of the stages are very big and an option to make the ball leave a trail beehind after it was shot. Overall, a very good game.

Developer

Thanks for the kind words and the feedback, those are great ideas

Submitted(+1)

it's a great concept where you think of the best way to improve robot shot, it's very polished for a 48 h Jam, i really liked the art and the different types of blocks to create interesting trajectory.

Developer

Thank you! Glad that you enjoyed our game

Absolutely incredible art, and the props the user is able to place are very imaginative. Our team thought of something similar when we were coming up with concepts, but we didn't imagine anything as colourful and fun as this. I second the gripe about the ball coming to a stop a little too quickly, but that's very minor. I think this is fantastic for a 48hr jam.

Developer

Appreciate it Jamie! We are thinking if we should keep improving it a bit on our free time just to see how much we could stretch the concept, lets see :)

Very fun! The music is nice, the atmosphere is nice, the pixel art & animation is superb.. this game is incredible! My only gripe is that the ball doesn't roll very well but hey, it's part of the puzzle I suppose!

Developer

Thank you for the kind words! I definitely agree the ball roll could have been worked on a bit more, but yeah, there is only so much you can do in 48hrs hehe

Submitted(+1)

Really fun to play! Very good for 48 hours!

Developer

Appreciate it! The team worked a lot and we were all really proud of the result, glad you liked it :)

I think the Rube Goldberg machine meets golf idea is really clever and I had a fun time optimizing my layouts with the different props to get a hole in one. Well done!

Developer(+1)

Appreciate it! Glad that you got the title joke haha, I think that not many will
