I love this idea. But I feel that the pace of the game is a bit slow.

Nice game I enjoyed playing it :) Near the end I thought I was going to lose to the bot but then it scored for me haha.
This is fun, the simple graphics and charming music really bring it up a notch and the Idea for the theme is a nice unique refreshing twist on pool. Good work!
A really nice pool game. I loved the art and music! The controls at the bottom of the screen were also super polished. It was a great way of communicating how to play to the player.
The only thing that bothered me was that the physics was sometimes a little off. For example, most of the time a full power shot would just go through the ball without hitting it.
The rolling of the dice and the bot turn felt a little but slow, but honestly it's not too bad and it'd be a minor thing to tweak anyway.
Overall this is a really great game and easily my favourite pool game so far!
I think it is caused by the speed being to high. As the ball moves, it is essentially moved in increments - the faster it is the bigger each step is. So if the speed is too high, the cue ball steps past the other ball between frames. To fix it, you'd have to make sure the speed isn't crazy high.
That'd be my guess for why it does that anyway.
Very creative idea! I love the visual style. It can feel a little slow at times but it is still really cool. Good job!
