I love it.  For such a small and simple game it has some great design work in it. 

All the small systems like the risk-reward choice in selecting which item you break, or whether you even try to break multiple,  the decision whether to already buy the next thing, leaving yourself fewer tickets left to try and make the money back, or whether to wait a bit to play safer, etc really tie nicely together for an experience where you're always making interesting decision all on the background of the main skill-based game loop.

Not sure if you didn't add audio, or if there was a bug with it, but didn't have any sound which was made the game feel a little unfinished, which is a little bit of a shame, but easy to fix I'm sure.

Overall a great game, and I really love the theme interpretation. The fact I have to pay just to unlock the option to pay for balls is delightfully on theme.

Thank you so much!  Really appreciate you playing it and taking the time to leave valuable feedback!  I'm glad the choices came though as risk-reward!

Yeah audio sadly got cut when down-scoping.  I love audio and agree it's part of what makes a complete experience so I'll endeavor to add audio in coming jam projects even if minimal!

Update: Turns out your game is addictive. I already found myself coming back several times to procrastinate :D Luckily the game eventually starts glitching which forces me to get back to work, but if you fixed that  and added some more content (giving me more ways to spend money to keep up the pressure), I could see myself wasting a lot of my time in it.

Thank you so much for letting me know!  I'm glad to hear its been one to return to.  Those additions make so much sense.  It will be pretty easy to fix the lag issue by fading out and removing old debris from the ground.  Then more content and options and ways to get combos along with pricier prizes that push your risk / reward limit.  Cheers I'll let you know if and when I update this game!

Hello and exciting news!  I have updated carnival smash and it should no longer lag after a few minutes of playtime!  There are a couple other quality of life changes as well.  Check it out and let me know what you think!
