The controls are weird but interesting. I felt a bit sick playing ahah. Congrats for your entry
Actually really fun to play! The perspective is a bit confusing but the controls were very intuitive!
I like the progression of obstacles, felt like a smooth ramp up in difficulty!
happy 30th birthday alan!
always fan of monkey ball type of games, this game had its own charm goodjob with that, just need a little bit polish and some variety environment it will be nice
Fun basic concept but definitely has some room for improvement the execution. Nice work!
I'm not entirely sure why, but this was somewhat nauseating for me. I think maybe it has to do with the fast moving clouds in the BG. I've played Super Monkey Ball and it definitely doesn't have that effect on me, so yeah, not sure. I wish there was a bit more colors in the world just to ease on the red, as it felt a little eye-straining.
Sorry about the nausea! The colors were chosen to accompany the fact that Coots is having a bad dream, being chased by a big red ball of yarn. How did you feel about the gameplay itself? Thanks for checking out the game and once again sorry it made you nauseous .
I figured that was the case (for the colors, I mean), but I can suggest maybe dark deep blues for the BG can help cause the red on the floors isn't that bad, just the yarn (unavoidable to look at) and the sky. But that's for later, if you wanted to work more on the game after the jam. Gameplay itself I can see as being fun. Once the nausea-feeling is removed, cause the ball itself handled well. I think it might be the slight disconnect between the camera and the world movement... I honestly don't know what else to say, but just studying Super Monkey Ball and how it plays I guess might help. xD
Visually eye soring but very well made!
Thank you!
really good game! much better than my trash game (shameless plug) make me not 3rd least
Thank you!
I cached myself right at the border many times, really cool mechanic!
Thanks!
Didn't expect to see a Super Monkey Ball style game in this jam!
When I first got the idea for this game, I actually had no idea about super monkey ball. I only found out about it when I was already working on it! I believe the idea actually came from Neverball (a game I played very briefly when I was much younger and forgot the name off until much later when I stumbled on it after finding out about super monkey ball). I definitely have an affinity for those kinds of games. Thanks for playing.
I was just getting a hang of it and it crashed! :( but fun idea used to play with these kind of games all the time as a kid
Ya I'm also drawn to these types of games cause of how unique the gameplay is. Thanks for checking it out! By any chance do you remember exactly what you were doing and how long you were playing for when you got the crash? Once again thanks.
When i get to the first obstacle with the white beams, and i angle my camera downwards toward the ground to go faster it will crash.
I tested once again hoping to get a screenshot around the area.
hmm interesting, I'm definitely was not getting those kinds of crashes when I tested it. Are you on windows 10 or 11?
windows 10
Thanks and one more question, is your windows 64 bit or 32 bit?
pretty fun and simple, I enjoyed it!
Thanks!
good game!
Thanks!
Gameplay is fun, you should make your own game in this style, I'd play it.
Thanks so much!
Fun game! I'm a sucker for Monkey Ball so I had a blast. Love the thematic as well. I felt so bad for Coots haha
Thanks so much man!
Very stressful, my hands are incredibly sweaty, but fun!
Thanks!
Very Interesting gameplay, controls are a bit awkward and hard but overall a pretty fun game :)
Thanks I appreciate that! Ya the controls require getting used to, they're not what you see in most games.
Somehow I get some Katamari feels. :D Very noice concept!
Thank you!
The controls were kinda awkward but just takes a bit of playing to get used to it. Great concept with you being the big ball of yarn chasing the cat, definitely a cat's nightmare.
Thanks! And ya the controls are definitely not what you see in most games.
