Alright, Virtual Nomad. I just played your game, Volleytile!, and I had a really fun time with it! I mean, it's basically just a simple Breakout clone, except that you have to do it in 20 seconds to achieve the high score. To be honest, this game was also kind of difficult for me to gain a high score. I like on how that there's extra gimmicks and items here and there to keep the game flow going, but when I got like a rocket power-up, I had no idea on how to use it, because I wasn't given any controls on how to use it. Overall, at the end of the day, it's just your average Breakout played in 20 seconds, and a very good execution on that. 4/5 stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐. Really great work, Virtual Nomad!

thanks for playing, and the feedback :)
unfortunately i kept the controls, etc, only on the project page itself (ie, click Operations there) but should have included some basic instructions inside the game, too.
regarding the weapons themselves, there are different approaches to using them, i've found. some take advantage of any lull in the action to fire off while others hold on to the weapons to wind up the last few seconds with trying to eliminate any remaining crates (where clearing them all = Award points).
i know i'll re-visit this project to shore up the fun factor so thanks again for the feedback :)
