Funny stuff! Was pretty hard finding the right arc to thow things at the swtich, but it was so satisfying when I eventually hit it. Great job for a game that was made in 48 hours!

Funny physic simulation games are always a blast. I feel like the hand could use a bit more of a separation between horizontal and vertical movement for more intentional throws, but I still was able to hit the light switch after about 10 attempts.

I don't know how I did it, but I hit it with the very first item on the very first try. It was a balloon. I have not been able to recreate it.

I have to say I found my way to finish it with constantly pressing right button :D Nice idea, I liked it :)

Valid solution, the rules don't say you HAVE to throw things

This was one of the goofier games I've played so far and it was really enjoyable. I thought the balloons were basically useless but then I accidentally chained a hit with a tennis ball to turn off the light. I can see the potential for expansion into a full game and maybe spinoffs. Great work!

You ever throw 400 dogs at a light switch? if not then you should play throwing things at the light switch simulator.

I legit have never emotionally related to a game more than this. I was there. I was in that bed throwing legit everything at the light switch. The game exceeds metaphors. I wasn't playing as the main character. The main character WAS ME. Cute af game lol, loved your use of the theme.

<3 I'm so glad I could whisk you away to this fantasy, even if just for a moment

Submitted(+1)

only right way to play is is to start at 3 am and only allow yourself to sleep ones you beat it

quite fun chucking things at the light switch and failing for an embarrassing amount of time. but the balloon is the goat and randomly turned off the light for me as i was preparing my terrible tennis ball throw. thank you balloon!

fun concept, it reminds me of trouble in terrorist town bc i would often grief people by whipping shit at max velocity and sniping people with like a bowling ball or something. i actually think i'd love to see a minigolf version of this, maybe with a stupid story attached. won't ding the game for how horrible the noises are bc that was intentional, but i'm glad u got this out for the jam with what time you had!

If there's anything I want you to remember my game for, it's the sweet serenade of a dozen balloons getting rubbed against each other.
