I played this game back when it was grey XD

Looks good, fits with the theme. Great entry.

I think there's a small bug where the ball will bounce if it hits the wall behind my paddle.

Thank you :).  Actually I made a very large collider back to the wall to make it easier for the player as it looks like.  But you are right: I think it makes it feel buggy.

The game crashed when I tried to play one more time in a row. Other than that, it was fun but maybe too hard.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback.  I tried to reproduce it several times but until now, I was not able to.  Could you provide some information like operating system and browser?

I was on firefox, windows 11. I tried to reproduce it too, and I couldn't. So I'm wondering what might have happened.
A minor amendment to my previous comment after playing it several times more - it's not too hard once you get how to use the "D" button ;)

Ok, thank you.  I checked the code but I don’t know what it could be.  All entities get removed.  Maybe a firework particle was removed twice which caused a panic.

Nice to hear it wasn’t too hard anymore.  I also added a second collider behind the players paddle and made the players collider larger than it looks like to make it look harder as it actually is.  But making games too hard is a problem I have too often in game jams.

Simple and fun. I liked all the firework explosion. Not sure if my red explosions had an impact but I played under the assumption it made my deflections stronger!

Developer

Thank you!  Glad to hear you had fun. :)  

I think you mean the red explosions if you press D.  They causes the balls surrounding your paddle to be reflected back.  If the lower bar is filled up to the maximum and becomes red this is pretty strong.   But I thought of removing this feature before I finally submitted because it’s very confusing.
