Loved the art and style, and the gameplay was solid too. Really liked the foresight to allow you to place a marble then aim it from a different part of the screen. I had a lot of trouble understanding what was going on though, as a combination of the unfamiliar object names, hard to read text (mostly because of the visual noise behind it), and what I assume was an implied "cost" system for the abilities.

How does your game represent "Power"?
Our team decided to start with the idea of "power-ups" and layered themes of power on different aspects of the game. Using elemental spirit power to imbue pyx with special effects, the player will have to control the power of their shots to knock out as many targets out of the ring in as little shots possible.

Wow this game is beautiful. How did you do the marbles? are they all pixel art or is it a 3d model with a filter? I do wish I didnt need to start from the beginning if I lost.
very aesthetic game, amazing atmosphere, graphics and sounds. cool way to play with the theme and additive gameplay
Pretty cool little game! I though the powers were nice but the explosion and magnet ones are the best.
Fun little game. Placing the marble was definitely slightly finicky, but not bad once you got used to it. Really smart the way you guys handled allowing drag from everywhere - especially in browser. Nice job.
Cool game with a nice style and feel!
I had some issue when trying to place down the ball (seems like it has to be quite a bit away from the board) but this was fun
Fun little game, great art the only thing i have problems with is trhowing the ball vertically it get out of the screen and makes it difficult to play, but really good entry great job!
the art, the music, the gameplay, all a perfect game! really satisfying to hit other balls
I played like 15 rounds of this before figuring out how to use the power-ups. Also got to a level where it asked me to knock out 1 more but there's 0 marbles left on the board.
The addition of the animated tree shadows, moving grass, and music really helps sell the cozy feeling. Nice compact game!
The art is so beautiful and the music is so comfy! I really enjoyed playing this! I got a lot of nostalgia :')
