I'm having difficulties scrolling through the list of players ( both in a small window as well as fullscreen ) so my current review is limited to what I was able to use so far:


Making a simulator in a game jam is quite daunting and I think, considering the time you could spend, you guys did a great job so far! 

I think all core elements are in and really like what I see so far. In the past I played a game called Speedball and this gave me the same vibe. 

There were a small number of issues which limited me in really playing it. After initially registering ( personally, i think this should never be a thing for a jam, but that's a personal opinion ) i was unable to login in my second session, so I had to make a new account.  Fullscreen does not actually scale up the window, so it's -very- small. 

I hope to get a trick for the scrolling, since I really want (NEED!) the full experience :-D

Hi and thanks a lot for your comment !

The scrolling not working in full screen is definitely weird, in insight we should have added another way to browse your players without it. I'm going to upload a downloadable version to the itch page, hopefully it will make you able to play in fullscreen or, at least, get the full experience. Thanks a lot for reporting by the way.

I usually share your sentiment on registering in jam game but, at the time of making this, it seemed like our best option for a persistent multiplayer game. We probably could have managed something by using the player's itch account in retrospect.

Anyway thanks again for sticking by, this was definitely a huge challenge in such a short time.

Here goes : https://evigouroux.itch.io/barball-downloadable-version

It's entirely identical to the web build but should be easier to scroll since it's not embedded in a web page
