How does your game fit the theme?
It's about a little ball which only goal is to get to the bottom of a cave without shattering. Like the theme says, you control a ball that needs to dive deep into a cave and get to the bottom.
Are you good enough a shot to help him?
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Code: Yes
Art: Yes
Music: A paid royalty free package I had lying around

The game was really fun! I ended up completing all the levels and found it satisfying to experiment with various angles and powerups. I really liked the multiple ball power-up; it made the game very exciting. My most favorite aspect of the game was seeing how the power-ups chained into each other as the ball reached the end. It was really satisfying. Overall, you did a great job!
This was so much fun to play! No wonder this is the most popular game I've seen yet. It's just so satisfying and gives a bit of an addictive arcade game feel to it. I wish there was some kind of reward for finishing, but even without one, it was still so satisfying to see the balls multiply like crazy! Wow. This was just so amazing. If you win a top place, you'll definitely deserve it!
Funny game. Nice work)
Overall great game!
Great game. Once you get used to the bounciness of the balls and you know how to throw them, it turns into a cool puzzle game. The difficulty increases nicely (when you excuse the random lucky shots that will just win you the level).
I did encounter a bug where my ball got destroyed and stayed in the form of a big black pile of death :D Too bad it was after a perfect first throw, since I had to restart the level
Hey! I made a top ten video of the games from this jam. (Spoiler alert, this game is in it)
If you like the video, please feel free to share it :)
Check it out!
Perfectly suitable for the theme. Simple graphics, audio and just a couple of mechanics, but it just comes together as a really enjoyable game! Very nice!
very good game!
i accidentally broke it, so that when you respawn for the next throw, the ball doesn't come back, rendering it kinda unplayable. maybe im just that bad...
Very nice and simple gameplay, I even manage to get "hole in one" for every level after a couple of attempts, fun game!
Not to easy, not to hard, gameplay is simple and design is very nice. GG
Had a lot of fun playing this one, great entry! Gameplay is simple yet engaging, very easy to pick up and get hooked. At some points it felt a little chaotic and random but I think that's alright since it wasn't the majority of the gameplay. Definitely left me wanting more levels to play, I think you could do a lot more with this and have a pretty great game for mobile devices. My only critiques are very minor in that occasionally the text can be a little hard to read and could use an outline or background panel, and that the monochromatic green does get a little old after about the first 5 levels - some variation would be nice. Anyway, awesome entry, really fun!
You can check out my gameplay video playthrough below for some more detailed feedback and initial impression.
Loved the video playthrough of the game! The comments about the game was fantastic with possible upgrades about showing more trajectory, being able to see the whole level before shooting and so on! Thanks for playing it through and yeah more levels is a big criticism about the game :(( Im definitely going to work more on it with all the feedback i have been given!
Really simple yet innovating game. Watching the balls fall and bounce is pretty satisfying. Really well done!
Really liked this game! I would love to see this game with more levels and additions in the future if you're up to it :)
Cool and addicting game.
Feels like a real game. If there were more levels i would play them.
Great casual game :)
this game is so original, thought through and well made. just wish there was a button to speed the balls oh wait there already is
The gameplay controls are elegantly simple yet incredibly addictive. Using just the aim and click mechanics, I found myself fully absorbed in the task of guiding the ball safely through each layer. The decision-making process of selecting the right upgrade adds a strategic element that keeps you on your toes, and the satisfaction of choosing the perfect upgrade to aid the ball's journey is immensely gratifying.
cool concept and great visual! very fun to play
That was fun to play! Only issue i had, that the ball bounce of the walls in some weird ways. Way to high, for example. That made it rlly hard to "plan" the throw, and ended in a more luck determined way to play this.
But overall it felt very polished and complete. Good game!
I liked the idea of Colors like game boy
