Hello! Welcome to Feedback Quest 7! My name's Hythrain and I'm one of the hosts and one of the streamers for this event! This feedback is being written live as I stream your game! If you're interested in seeing my live reaction, let me know and I can send you a link to the VOD once it's posted to YouTube!

So my normal approach for any game in these events is simple: I get the game, make sure it's not a virus, then play it with as little information on how to play as possible. This way, I can judge how intuitively someone can figure out the game. Only if it's obvious that I need to read more will I do so. I note this so you can get a sense where some of these feedback comes from. In addition, I want to note that feedback and rating are different; don't use this feedback to gauge what I'll rate, nor should you view my rating as entirely indicative of my feedback.

At first, I was confused as to what I needed to do. It was by pure chance I figured out I could make bounce pads for the birds to hit. However, I was then met with a new problem: I couldn't redo or adjust bars unless I completely restarted the level, which would ALWAYS start on the goal and would leave me disoriented. I would lose track of where I had bars and was basically starting over every time. This inability to keep a consistent picture just makes the game arbitrarily harder, which is just not fun. The challenge should be about solving the puzzles, not trying to remember the exact spot you put a pad that worked for what you were trying to do.

So first off, I'd like to suggest that players can adjust their bounce pads once they've been made. Simply make it that the player can grab one end and move it around. That way, if a player makes a mistake with the pad they're making it's a lot easier to fix. At the same time, add an ability to delete a pad.

Second, when the player restarts it should NOT force the camera to zoom back into the clock. Instead, at that point it should start off at the wooden birds.

Third, restarting should NOT erase your current pads. It should retain the pads so the player can adjust them as they need. Why make them redraw every pad every single time if they know they have one they want, right?

My baby and I tried your game, it's a pretty fun puzzle game although initially we were a bit lost on what to do, but we were able to figure it out then it's enjoyable. More directions/tutorials hints for the beginning player would be great. I can see this idea flourish very well on Android/OS market if you ever decide to take it to commercial markets.
