Cool concept for a game! The parallax background was very nice and the balls felt satisfying to hit (outside of having no audio). There are a couple big opportunities for improvement though, the biggest annoyance for me was that it was hard to tell how fast the other balls were moving in absolute terms due to the scrolling background but no reference points to look at in the foreground (just a black floor)

I hear you loud and clear! (unlike the sounds lol) yea i agree there are tons of room for improvement/polishing this game could use, especially the sounds

Thanks for playing tho! im glad you liked it

Nice, fun, simple game. Maybe I just suck at games but I found it difficult to land on the enemies' heads, maybe make them a bit bigger for people like me lol. Though I understand why you'd wanna keep it on the harder side. I don't understand why you didn't add some audio though, would've been nice :-:
Overall nice game. Make sure to check mine out too!

Developer

as for the sounds I didnt really have time to go and do that, ik it sounds like an excuse but I just totally spaced out on that :/

happens alot

Really cool game. The blue circle really game in suprising and the game got hard. I really enjoyed the parallax background in combination with the moving floor.

Developer

Developer

I believe you have something here, but most of the aspects need polish. Starting with sound. I recommend using a site like https://freesound.org/ . Having sound really helps player feedback! Also- having paralax on the background is a nice effect, but in this game it sort-of threw my judgement of jumping distance.

The thing that helped with player feedback was the trail.

Developer

Thanks for playing! 

I agree this game really needed a lot of polish, maybe ill continue developing it who knows

and thanks for the feedback I really appreciate it

I enjoyed this one! I really like the gameplay and the background effect, some sort of indicator of taking damage would've been nice (screen flashes red or screen shake). Great work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! glad you enjoyed it
yea I tried adding like a hit effect but I guess its not really showing whoops
unfortunately I didnt have enough time to polish
but thanks for the feedback I appreciate it!

I really like jumping on enemies haha, it's great when you jump on one and while still in the air you kill another! I also liked the blue enemy (reference to sonic? haha)

Developer(+1)

I didnt have sonic in mind actually thats pure coincidence haha
