Ah, I enjoyed the reveal of this game. I almost always really enjoy your games, and this is another good example. I suspect that there's a few issues with the game progressing exactly as you'd intended? DoomGoon is right, there are a few cracks in the experience, but it's definitely a fun little adventure that had me laughing, and there were a lot of good pay offs. I would love to see things get even more explosive, I suppose. Better feedback on how your brooming is really effecting your stones might help correct any incorrect brooming techniques, and keeping momentum across the throw line would feel more intuitive perhaps. You guys did great!

[x/p from thread] Fairly fun and interesting, this one does a good job (particularly in the beginning) of selling you a game.  There's some cracks here (more of an experience than a fine-tuned simulation) but it's good for its runtime.  If it was a bit more of a gamey game I'd put it up there personally!  Oh, the ending screen seems to be bugged somehow (takes the input from the text before and exits?) and I couldn't catch it.

Fun game and the evolution of curling gets really crazy in this one. Did take me a second to realise nothing was happening with my curling and that I also needed to press the button. Once I did though I was able to make those clowns pay. The change in objects with their different properties was also a nice touch and added some variety which was nice.
