This game's simple yet addicting mechanic made me want to try and try again. The tying of the line similar to how the heartbeat is viewed in a monitor was a nice touch.
I did have an issue when the ball would be all the way up, I could not go down unless I let go of a key.
Overall, a fun game to play.
Automatic restart when you hit a bomb would have been nice and was not a fan of shift, would've preferred space bar as an option, but eventually got through it after multiple deaths. Solid work!
Thanks BroReNata for your feedback! It's all very helpful
This is a fun mechanic, I love that it is a hearth monitor visually!
I think you fell for the classic gamedev trap: making the game too hard in the beginning. There are some cool levels here, but the first level already is very challenging. I would make it a lot easier and maybe even don’t have bombs in there. Then the player can just focus on getting the hearts first and experiment a bit 😊
Keep it up!
Thanks for your feedback, Sander! Glad you thought it was fun. That's a very helpful point about making the early levels easier!
Pretty challenging and fun. I know you said this was sort of a flappy bird clone, but it didn't feel like it to me. The slight hum though was a little annoying.
Thanks Scubadoo2. Yes, music is not my strong point! I agree it could be improved.
That a really cool take on the flappy bird formula. A lot of fun and surprisingly difficult, but also quite addictive.
I think it would be neat if a level restarts automatically after hitting a bomb or missing a heart (I had to press "R" quite often :D)
Thanks your feedback Fenchel! Glad you found it a bit addictive!
