In what way does your game fit the theme?
The CHAOS can be a good or bad thing in our games. you can use the chaos against other players and destroy them or you can be the one that is destroyed.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
everything is made from scratch except the pixel art font. we got the font from this link:

Sh*t, as simple as this idea is, it's just as ingenious. Bravo!
With your permission, I will leave this game on my phone. This was not enough for me. And if you also finalize the multiplayer, all the roads in Google Play are open! (It's not a joke, this game really good for production release)
We will be grateful if you appreciate our work ^ _ ^
Wow, your team made quite the chaotic game in just a week. Well done!
I love how simple the core concept here is: 4 way pong with more balls. That's it. That's the perfect level of simplicity for a jam and it works super well. The game plays and looks super polished, too. I think the difficulty is a tad high. I wasn't able to outlast a single CPU or even come close. The best I got was +990 time, but I still lost with the opponents with over 100 net score. Without changing the AI or the difficulty, I wonder if you could highlight or otherwise color change the balls that have a velocity coming towards your goal. This might help give players a much needed edges vs the CPU and help them sift through the very chaotic gameplay.
Y'all made a great game. Good job!
Very cool game that gets very chaotic very quickly with all the balls on the field. It's also very hard, maybe a little too hard. But it's so well polished other than that, so I definitely recommend trying it out.
Super Polished and fun! I liked the pixel art and the sound effects, but I would have maybe made the AI players a bit less good, to give the player more of a chance.
good job!
That was just too chaotic! How can you win this? Video Review: 14:00 Balls of Chaos
Very nice! I really liked this game and it looks really polished, shows you put a lot of effort! Well done!
This is great, wow! I loved all the animations and chaos, I only have one question: is the leaderboard time the time you have left when you've defeated the others? not that I've been able to so far, but still...
Hey hey ~
I thought that the visuals and the audio was super on point, everything looked clean and crisp and was quite enjoyable. I'm really impressed as to what was accomplished.
My biggest critique is that I'm not really sure if there's a good strategy to beat the AI once things get really chaotic, there becomes too many things to keep track of and while a computer can handle that fine my small human brain cannot.
Also, this one is small but the main menu got crunched on my resolution.
That said I had an absolute blast playing this game and really enjoyed the chaos. I think you guys did a fantastic job in the thematics and in the implementation. Well done friends :)
Awesome arcade game! It's really polished and the graphic is really cool.
It gives me Crash Bash vibes! Good job!
Between the GORGEOUS main menu, the little animations on the tiny balls as they went diagonally, and even the smoke clouds when you move your paddle, the graphical polish is so elite. Game definitely felt very chaotic; I couldn't really get the hang of it and died a lot, but I loved watching it unfold. Would have loved to have some screen shake or meaty sound effects when you knock a bunch of balls back and win a lot of time! Often didn't even realize I was about to run out. Overall super enjoyable and on-theme!
Cool game concept! Fit the theme very well! Love the pixel art style. Instantly give me retro aesthetic! Very cool!
Also I would love to hear your thought and rating on my game if you interested, please give it a try!

Very good art! The game was interesting but it did not feel very "juicy". I think adding more stuff like screen shake and particle effects and noise of the balls hitting stuff would go a long way. also for more craziness, you could make the balls hit one another. I lost but it was hard to tell why.
Bots move much faster than the player
But the idea was fun and chaotic! Good job!
Lots to love here,
Multiple build platforms, excellent polish on the menus, a leader board, and very fitting yet unobtrusive sound design.
The idea of a sort of reverse pong where you're simply trying to hit more balls than you miss just to stay afloat is pure gold. Having the balls multiply on every bounce definitely ramps up the chaos super quick, spot on for theme.
I also rather appreciated the way the instruction screen subtly tested to make sure you were reading by only starting the game when you press the correct key, and booted you back to the main menu otherwise.
All told awesome game here lads, keep up the great work.
I like your game! The Art and UI, Music, Game design are awesome! 5 stars from me :D
