This is pretty cool and the game feels really good to play, and mechanically this game is really sound! The best score I got is 41, though I don't think that is very good lol. You should add a leaderboard if you can, it would really add to the fun to compete against others for score.

this game is great! really juiced up- i love all the impact effects on the ball and the fact that it kills you in one hit. some of the hitboxes and knockback felt a bit unfair relative to the sprites drawn, but that happened rarely.

fun game, but I wish I could move the ball while walking, i would also like to be able to fullscreen. Nice work

really fun game! ive never quite seen a concept like this before and its executed really well! im not good at it at all... im not good at multitasking... GREAT WORK NONETHELESS!!!

Fun game! Simple idea but executed really really well. Feels like a classic arcade game. Wrangling control over the orb is simple to learn but hard to master, which seems like a great thing. I found myself wanting to play over and over. Also it's cool you used pygame

super fun, I think some feedback I gave while you were still developing made it into the game (the orb is faster now!) it is super fun and addicting to keep playing. I think the wave difficulty increasing is great

this orb dangerous fr, its actually pretty great

A fun and straightforward game. Very much feels like there is a low barrier to entry, but a high skill ceiling for controlling the orb and juggling your own movement at the same time.
I agree with the other comment about controller support though. Being able to control exactly how much speed and direction is applied to the ball would add another dimension to the gameplay.

Great entry, Love the concept and I would love to try it with a controller. I feel like this would work great with analog sticks.

This game's really cool, the idea and art are both great. I think the game's a bit too difficult though. I think you should either make the orb smaller, or the room a bit bigger, that or ease the player into the game at the start with a few really easy waves. Just my two cents, great game though! By the way I got 54 points.

no way you're calling this guy's game hard lol. I am dying on your game over and over. I can't stop playing it though.

Haha, I feel like I've been called out for some reason.
