Judge feedback
Judge feedback is anonymous and shown in a random order.
- Ill be honest, I read the instructions, and I still don't get it haha. Its got pleasant sound effects but my lack of a grasp on what exactly was happening makes me feel a bit stupid. I did pass this to the other judges to give it a fairer shake though. The art is very programmer art to me, but a decent implementation of that, so not 1 star.
- Neat but very simple game. Would have loved to see more from this, such as randomisation between rounds of the additional bumpers, or unlocks/challenges for more balls, or increased speed etc when bouncing. This would work really well as a mobile phone game if expanded so would love to see where this goes.
Did you include your Game Design Document in your downloadable files?
Yes
Tell us about your game!
I tried to make everything click and touch based. The goal is for it to play nicely on mobile (although it isn't optimized for it, yet).
I took the "It's Spreading" prompt and tried to realize it with Shader technology. Hopefully, there is a constant feeling of the "spreading" white fog over the course.
Did you remember to include your Game Design Document?
Yes
Is your game set to Public so we can see it?
Yes

A really cool minimalist approach. The implementation of the music is creative!
Thank you for the kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the music--thanks for playing and commenting :)
Beautiful aesthetics, and the music and sound was great, it definitely took a few tries before I got the hang of things haha!
Looking forwards to the post jam update!
Thank you for the kind words! I'm glad the aesthetics vibed with you--and I'll try to get things surrounding the gameplay (menus, UI, etc) cleaned up to match.
Thanks for taking the time to play and comment!
Nice game! I found it super addicting, and just really enjoyed the vibe and music. Great work! My best score was 368 :)
Thank you for playing and commenting! I'm glad it was an enjoyable experience and that you liked the aesthetics :)
