Fantastic game, I found it addicting even though I couldn't beat the level. It was fun enough to make me keep trying which is pretty well done. Good job!
Besides the really slow spawning blue orbs (sorry, I know other comments have already talked about this), the game has a good set of mechanics. I wish the shooting wasn't based off of how fast you can spam the button, but it does lead to the hilariously cheesy tactic of standing under the spawn point and spewing a solid stream of death. With just a few minor qol tweaks like a bit more player agency, this game would be top tier.
I found that the superior tactic is to stand in between the two gray cubes and shoot without moving. Getting hit is no big deal because health pour down on you as you destroy balls. also the balls seems to spawn always in front of that opening between this two grey cubes which makes the strategy even more superior.
As other people, it feels like waiting for the blue ball to spawn which is out of the control of the player and not much fun.
I'd say, if you can find a way to give the player insentive to move around move and give him more interesting intermediate goal, I think it would be more interesting.
This is a fun game! The music with the simple controls really got me engaged. However, I think that the blue balls should spawn more often. Keep it up!
I really enjoy this one. Challenging and difficult for me to beat but getting better as I play. It's so addicting!
Really liked this game, and the art is simple but good for the eyes, and "Oh my hand so many times pressing hahaha
This is such a good concept and a fun game, good job! Like others have said though the tutorial was a little bit overwhelming and I didn't know about the shield for a while. Other than that though great game!
There were a lot of mechanics introduced during the tutorial and was very overwhelming. As a result, I didn't use shield till my second play through (which I did to figure out what shield was). The game wasn't that difficult, as shown by the fact I beat it first try without shield, which I found pretty disappointing. I think the first level could be cheesed by the fact the player can jump onto the grey bricks, though I didn't test it. Overall, it was a great concept and reminded me a lot of games I played as a child on Webkinz.
If you do add more levels, may I recommend introducing mechanics at a slower pace, so that the player can effectively use all of them?
I think blue balls could appear more often ;) but more work and it can be a good Pang-like game :)
Really cool concept, and very well polished! I couldn’t help but feel like the best strategy would be to spam the shots though. Additionally, it was a bit frustrating that the cubes could fall on top of the platforms, making them hard to reach even though they were useful collectibles. Overall, great game though!
Basically asteroids with balls, and colours, and a lot of chaos.
Feels very polished in all regards. A fun game!
I really like the concept, I think it works really well with the theme!
It's very hectic and chaotic, and surprisingly challenging, which was very welcome. The movement felt fast and smooth. Had a bit of hard luck a few times on the yellow stage where yellow balls wouldn't spawn, but I imagine that was just my hard luck!
Overall, very nice game, well done!
I love the way the game looks and feels, it's difficult but really fun!
I think that there can be some more tweaks to the UI to make it easier to see. For example when I focus too much on the bubbles, I couldn't see the health bar or the difficulty bar very well, which leads to some embarrassing deaths!
Overall awesome game! nicely done!
