Super fun! Well done!
Loved the medic pins. The whole game was very charming music, pins, and extremely smooth controls. Great Work!
Wow! So much personality, it was a ton of fun to zoom around and I loved the sense of humor with the music, "enemy" pins, medic pins, etc. Great idea and execution!
Such a crazy game. Really fun!
Very unique and funny. Didn't know you could go over the lanes so when I discovered that I went to town. Which I could hit the paramedic pins too :)
Very fun game! What are the moral implications of large sentient pins playing in a bowling alley with small pins lined up at the end? Truly a cruel world this is, good you can bring justice as the bowling ball.
Alas, what are the moral implications of a human pondering this scenario while playing it as a game for enjoyment? Anyway, thank you for playing, glad you liked it!
Simple, yet fun mechanic!
omg this is so satisfying to play, that reception desk on the top right killed me so much
super nice job on this
When I saw the medics I was like, "Oh, that's clever. You can knock them over, too!" But alas... Perhaps that's in the war criminal DLC :P
My only feedback would be the controls. I know it's a bowling ball and should be heavy, but it felt not great to control with mouse and keyboard. Maybe that would be different with a game pad?
The art and animations in this are great. Peak "why? why not!" for a game jam game. I could see this being fleshed out into a fun little mobile game, too. The theme is appropriately weird. I like it.
Y'all did a great job on this one. Congrats on making this in just a few days!
Of course, combat against combat medics will be in the Bowling Criminalley DLC.
We tried to find a middle ground with the controls between realism and responsiveness but you are right, they're not perfect. The animations are mostly DoTween animations playing on Unity GameObjects because we didn't have an animator, it's a good way to save time in game jams. Thank you for playing our game!
Too funny! I loved seeing the medics come in and carry the knocked out pins out on a stretcher 😂 Great addition.
Wow, that's really well done!
The knockin' mechanic is entertaining and the core concept is simply very fun! I like that you added three lives to help bad players like me to enjoy the chaos a bit more, before dying ^^
The download almost made me give up from trying it, but in the end it was definitely worth it!
liturally never played a game which was that nice to play, it was soo satisfying to knock the white pins tbh. Nice work!
thank you, happy you like it!
