At first the controls felt a bit janky but after a while I got used to them, I would love to see you revisit this game at  a later date.

Developer

I might do! The main issue is the difficulty, so it shouldn't be an issue to add an easy mode.

I liked the idea and it was very fun but I think the melons should be bigger and it should have more easier levels

Developer

Thank you, I will definitely try to make it easier 😅

Thanks! I think a different difficulty level which changes the lose condition would be a good idea, and the art would also be better but I was struggling with time limit 😅 Glad you liked playing it

The game was pretty fun, really difficult. I really liked some of the art like the trees and the melons were fun to watch bounce around, it's just a bit simple is my only complaint, but a really good base and very polished for the time frame.

Developer

Thanks! Yeah I could have added more mechanics if I had the time.

Liked it, although I didn't finish it cuz I almost lost my marbles when my melons fell for the 15th time on the seccond level. Anyways, I really like the art, but the music feels a little barebones, I think that is because it doesn't have any base or drums. Good use of the theme and definitely very original.

Developer

Thanks, and yeah it is very frustrating so I should add an easy mode in future. I don't usually make music so I know it definitely needs improvement 😅

Liked this a lot! Fun concept and good visuals. The melon mechanics are weird at first but once you get the hang of it it's a nice challenge.

Developer

Thanks, glad you liked it :))

This game is really good, but  a recommendation I would make is to,  create difficulty levels, because the base difficulty of the level is pretty difficult, but the way I think you can apply this is by measuring how many balls fall into the ground forex: if you have 3 balls, but drop 2 it restarts the level, and if you have 3 and drop 1, it won't restart overall a great game jam game

Thanks! Yeah I completely agree and while making it I was thinking about easy mode where there would be less melons but your idea is also a good way to do it.

I really like this Idea! A very polished game with good graphics and some fitting music.

Developer

Thanks :D

please make this game avalible for mac or make it a html because I would really like to play this game.

Developer

I will try to do a HTML build now, I am just not sure if it will work as well as my HTML games end up being glitchy a lot.
