I liked the game, but will be nice to have more vertical space to react to the bombs and the bombs to be a little smaller

Circles of ReplicationsA short, to-the-point game! Very cute design! =)
Good job! You can add new characters and new backgrounds to unlock after getting to certain scores!

Doraemon 3T Challenge: Tic Tac ToeGameplay is very nice. Avoiding is sometimes nearly impossible, reducing sizes or increasing speed could help. Or an additional skill, like dash with a cooldown.

Touch 'n Ghosts (In Dev)A simple, small game - I like that :-) And I am naturally "drawn" to games with a hand-drawn style. I have to give them all a try!
Played some rounds with mild success ;-) But enough to be able to give you some advice and hints for improvements.
Pros:
- The numbers are really big and easily recognisable - that's how it should be!
- The intro sequence is nice and so is the countdown at the beginning of the game
Cons:
- Bombs are too big and too irregular in shape, in combo with their rotation this makes avoiding collisions errratic or at least too hard to anticipate/predict
- No feedback when a collision takes place (except the very unnoticable removal of one live icon
- No option for readjustments after a collision
Advice/Improvements:
- Make the bombs more regular in shape (very close to a circle-round shape), and smaller
- Give feedback for collision in context of the character (letting it flash red or make the bomb explode), also supported by audible feedback
- Make character invincible for 1-2 secs after such a collision (again, give visual feedback, like a rapid flicker effect), to give players a chance to recompose and resort themselfs
And finally an offer: I am interested in Scratch, and how games are developed with it. And I like simple game concepts. So if you want, I can offer you to provide my hand-drawn art for your next project (or even this one here). In return, it would be nice if I somehow could get some insides from you, how you do this scratch-stuff, how your dev process is looking like. I provided all the art and UI design for this game here, which from the simplicity of mechanics etc. is quite comparable to yours: https://sealnf.itch.io/jamjump

9 DayzNeat! I've left Scratch long ago, but I made a game somehow similar to this.
First: Your art is very... unique. It doesn't look amazing but with this "goofy" type of game it fits really well.
Second: Always find a memorable name for your game. "Super Bomb survival 10" doesn't seem very catchy to me, that might just be my own opinion.
Third: Neat effects. Especially since you've done them with Scratch.
Fourth: This is FULLY optional, but if you were in the Scratch community for a really long time (1-2 years), try to leave it. Learn something new, trust me, you'll appreciate it. A game developer must ALWAYS be able to adapt quickly. For example, if you're not too comfortable going to the big dudes (unity or Unreal) like me, then try out Construct 3 or GDevelop. They aren't too far away from Scratch, but it will greaten your knowledge if you try to learn them.
Thanks!
