It was a little hard to figure out at the beginning- mostly because the hitboxes of the moles are a little too small and sometimes it makes it hard to hide them quickly. But overall, very enjoyable game!

Looks cool from the trailer, but PLAY button doesn't work for me :/

A fellow retro enthusiast, excellent presentation and a fun core loop. Great job!

Love the retro look, very fun to play :) stressful to dodge the hammer >w< feel bad for the moles now. 5 stars ^ o^

Visually really impressively executed, I love the retro art style, the juice and the moles, however I think you could have made the gameplay a bit more chaotic, add combos etc. The game is definitely fun to play, but at some point it gets repetitive because of lacking variation. Criminally underrated though, I hope you can get some more reviews! Edit: obviously the idea is just funny in the first place

Yes, I thought about adding a combo, which is a must-have mechanic in a game like this. I will definitely add combo mechanics to my next arcade game. Thank you for your feedback

The idea is super well made and fits theme perfectly. easy 5/5 on that. excecution tho... it is clever and fun at first, but holy shiiiiii it need so much more playtesting/balancing to be enjoyable. Losing points was annoying, there was too much to handle, hitboxes to click were too small, and the way u got points from moles wasnt the first way to come to my mind. also some more feedback with sounds wouldve been nice, sound are rly important. anyway, nice idea, next time spare some time to playtesting and u can get easy win with these kind of ideas.

Also this is still underrated af, 3 reviews??? u should advertise more

Developer

Yes, I agree with everything you said. Hitboxes are very annoying.Since I'm the one who made the game, after a point, my perceptions really disappear. Thank you for this beautiful feedbacks.

This is a cool idea! 

Took a while to load, but the gameplay idea is actually quite cool, I like it! I do miss the SFX or music, atleast it didn't appear to me. The difficulty curve is pretty good, although leans on the easier side. The bar reseted for me after filling it in. Awesome visuals and funny quips by the moles.

 Overall? I quite like this one, actually. MORE PEOPLE SHOULD PLAY IT! 

Developer

Thank you for your nice feedback. Actually we didn't have time to add Music and sfx as I focused a bit on the graphics and feel of the game. ups...
