At times it felt like I was dropping very slow but other then that the limited jumps make the game really fun. Good job!

Developer(+1)

I will fix the slow speed in the official page

you can try the (Hopefully) improved version there and tell me if it is better

Submitted

I fell in love with the aesthetics of this game, it kinda gave me the vaporwave vibes.

Hope you keep working on it and release more levels :3

Developer(+1)

Thanks :)

Submitted

Very cool game, looks very pleasing, loved the oldschool tv look. Plays well. Might make it a bit more difficult when you speed up during the gameplay. Good job!

Submitted

Great game,  it will work really great on phones u shoul launch it on android. Also add a "infinite mode"  so the player can replay to get new records. Keep going :D

Developer

Great idea :D

Will do

Developer

Glad you liked it

:D

Nice little game, really fun and smooth.

Actually done without jumps

Developer

Thanks :)

Submitted(+1)

Looks really nice and the controls feel really smooth! It was easier than a lot of these pit games. I found I actually didn’t need to jump very often, but it was nice to have.

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

i meant to have more jump dependant levels but lack of time and skill, stopped me from making many levels

Hopefully I will find the time and make this a sort of standalone game 

Will try to inform you if i do so in a standalone relase if the game

Thx ;)

Love your game, but i would like to see more levels, colors. Also there is a bug where player can stop himself just by going into walls. Good job.

Developer

As i have said in another reply

I need to adjust the playercontroller script

I might not be able to do do due to my weak coding skills but i will try.

Hopefully I can fix 


The reason for the few colours, i didn't have too much time to make levels as for me it is my exams and juggling coding and studies was pretty tough i will give a constant stream of updates is all goes to plan

Will tell u if fixed.

:)

Submitted

Ball gets stuck to the wall easily, you might wanna change that. I like it in general. Well job!

Developer

I see that many ppl are having a problem with that, I'll try my best to fix later :/

Submitted

You should add slippery to rigidbody material so it wouldn't be stuck on a wall and just slide.  I think that will help you.

Developer (1 edit)

Already there

I need to adjust the playercontroller script

I might not be able to do do due to my weak coding skills but i will try.

Submitted

Nice game. I like the style you went with.

Developer

Thx ;)

Submitted(+1)

i love the graphics

i have an issue with enjoying the flow of the game, i think the fall of the ball should be more smooth or effected more by gravity, also the jump mechanic kinda just have a use, i beat the game without jumping

Developer

I will increase the gravity :)

Should be updated by Tomorrow

Need to study for now 

Thanks :)

Developer

I will make more jump focused leveks in the future

Submitted

I think the jumps made it too easy and you should add some more sounds. Furthermore, i suppose the game would benefit of an endless mode where you get faster over time. However, good idea and with more levels real fun!

Developer

Will fix by tommorow thx :)

Submitted(+1)

I like how you managed to make simple shapes look nice, my only criticism is that the ball should be frictionless, as being able to stop it on walls kinda takes away from it.

Developer

Noted.

Thanks for pointing out :)

Submitted

Very cool, i like the 3 jump mechanic. Could use some music though, but I had fun :) 

Developer (1 edit)

I originally had music but decided it would hurt people's ears so i deleted it

I might add music in the future

Thanks for playing :)

Submitted(+1)

I really loved the visual style, great work in that department! The last level was my favorite, it would be cool to see more falling-down reflex-based levels like that one in the future. I would've liked it to be a bit faster-paced though.

Very good job! Especially for a first time! :'D

Developer(+1)

Thanks :)

I tried to keep the difficulty low so anyone can pick it up and play it with ease i might expand it and make it my first small release on mobie soon :D

Submitted

That's fair. Best of luck if you go through with it, it could become a kick-ass game! :'D

It's a very simple game, but the visuals are really good. Reminds me of old 1990s cartoon for some reason, it might be due to the aesthetics which I enjoy :)

Good work!

Developer

Good to see it gave off the vibe it was supposed to give 

Thanks for rating

Submitted(+1)

For something so simple it plays very nicely and I really like the visuals, the glowing screen with faded out edges kind of reminds me of super old tvs. Well done.

Developer

Thanks :D
