The two things that are most outstanding to me are the great music and the lovely game art.
Regarding the gameplay, I am missing enough control to avoid the obstacles the game is throwing at me. Because of that, I was kind-of accepting that I got hit a lot, and concentrated on returning the ball, as best as I could.
My overall impression is a nice, polished game that is fun to play. Good job!
I really loved this <3 It reminded me of a Mario Party Minigame. So sweet and pure :D Great entry
Absolutely loved this entry, it's an almost perfect high score game, the only thing I would add is some more difficulty scaling, perhaps the robot hits the ball faster the longer it goes or the catching radius shrinks over time.
Combined with the great visuals and quirky character designs I had a great time vibing and rallying with my bot friend.
This game is pretty fun! I did have problem where the ball was pushing me around (instead of the fish hitting it) which brought it down from great to good, but overall this game is really cute and it was fun when the fish worked properly! Nice job!
The game is simple and easy to operate and rich in content. I have to take into account the flying shells while playing volleyball? Interesting!
But the presence of the enemy's AI is too low to make me feel the changes that AI has brought to me
The game would be better if the animations of the movements were richer and the AI's behaviors were more varied
Hope you can vote my game too
I really enjoyed playing this, possibly one of my favorites so far. It was simple, charming, and just an overall fun experience! Awesome job!
fun game idea but just like poorly drawn said, the hit box should be at the feet of the player
Super cute game!!! The art is so cute and the dialogue at the start did a really good job of introducing me to the mechanics. I understood straight away. I only have one issue (its more of a nitpick) and its that the hit detection for the beachballs and canonballs includes the head, so a couple times i would get hit by one when imo it should have passed by me on my left
A simple game that might have gotten tedious very quickly, but the elements you've added to include some variation helped spice things up a bit.
There's still a bit of tedium to it after 20 or so volleys; I would have liked to see some scaling of difficulty as the points got higher. Also would have liked to see some randomness in the AI bot's behaviour. At present, it merely acts as a wall, rather than a separate party with their own decisions to make.
I should add, the bizarre sharks and cannonballs and on-fire volleyballs really creates a joyful atmosphere that is well mirrored by the music. And the animations of the fish are beautiful.
Overall, a nice game. Well done.
Really cool idea! It feels really juicy when you hit the ball and I love the art!
