Very addicting!  I liked it! I also like the addition of multipliers!

Simple gameplay, but really addicting.

Oh boy this remind me of my childhood game, good job man <3.

Submitted

Good job! I had a bit of difficulty figuring out the controls, but it was otherwise fun

simple premise but really well done mechanically , i do not make it on the leaderboard but i enjoy the game quite a bit with the passing mechanic playing keep away , i think the one thing i would of liked to see was the power bars for everyone constantly to help with the decision making of who to pass to when for the power shots but still a great game , keep slaying it !!!

Developer

The bar is always empty after a shot and only fill up when active player control the ball, but it is a good idea to make them slowly gain power to add more depth into the gameplay. Thank you for the idea and thanks for playing!

Despite being very simple this was very fun and I played for a long time. Good job with the innovative concept!

Developer

Thank you for playing!

this game is SO hard and equally fun. at first the controls were pretty unclear to me, and even after learning it was quite confusing and I often found myself passing to the wrong player because to me A means left, but that might just be a me problem. either way, great game

Developer

Thanks for trying! If you have something in mind to make the control more clear and easy to understand please let me know

Submitted

Nice :) The same but different. It was fan to play 

Developer

Riiightt??? Maybe we should team up for another jam lol

Submitted

It would be great, but I know Unity only. I know nothing about  godot 

I think i found a bug
If we pass to the player that is holding the ball we cant pass it again
Like when the game starts and i press "W" it bugs out and i cant pass the ball then

Developer

Nice catch! Thanks for letting us know. We are in luck it doesn't break the game that much hahaha

Submitted

Enjoyed playing this game . I found using wasd for giving direction a little difficult and confusing haha  . Maybe using the mouse rotation to give the direction to shoot , Just my personal opinion though . Fun game

Developer

That is actually a nice feedback! you let us know whats the problem and how to fix it. Thank you!

Submitted

you subtract the world mouse position and the current player and normalize it , this will give you a direction where the mouse is . Then use this value to shoot the ball at the direction of the mouse . This well let player have more control over where to throw/pass the ball .

Very fun gameplay loop that had me strategising to maximise my score. The controls feel intuitive and smooth and the sprites for the players and the monsters look great.

One suggestion I feel might improve players' ability to score highly is for the map to expand a little bit  as the monsters pick up speed, at the moment, once the monsters are moving fast, all of your players become cornered and you just have to do your best to stay alive. Great submission though, and I may come back to try to top the leaderboard.

Cheers!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Making thief faster is one of the design we choose to limit game duration, it is intended to make you lose (not making the game harder). This way player wont get bored with prolonged duration. 

Let me know how many seconds you stay alive at your best. And how long should it be before player "forced to lose".

Fun gameplay and nice art! Made me play multiple times.

Developer
