- Absolutely stunning! Everything about this game is slick. The graphics are perfect, the audio is great - especially the effects (the music loop is a little short), the controls feel lovely too. An amazing example of what's possible for a game jam! Easily app store / Steam quality with a little more work (extra bonus pieces and so on). I would have loved a 'free play' mode, so I could just keep on going as long as possible and making a shot didn't cost any power :)

Really nice game ! 👍
Great job! The movement feels great and I had fun knocking the other pucks into the hole.
Awesome work.
A fun game! Great gameplay and art style. Very well executed and I like the inclusion of features like the power blow! Good job!
The game is so satisfying. All the elements fit together perfectly. The audio is a highlight for me. Great work !
Excellent work, loved the execution. Well done. And thumbs up for open sourcing it.
The visuals and gameplay are really good and work well together. The game is really well designed. Good job!
Good job on making the physics feel just right. I was even able to play this on my mobile device and that wasn't bothersome at all.
This game is so fun!!, physics really good executed, I saw the repository on the game page, you may want to edit the submission to include the link there as at first sight I though the label open source was wrong and realized it was on the page. congratulations on the fantastic work!
Thanks for the positive feedback, and thanks for pointing out that I didn’t have the link to the repository. I’ve added it to the page now.
Definitely up there from the games I've seen so far... Neat! Consistent and Fun! Good work!
Great game! The concept is very clear and I really love the graphics. The pointer and the pucks are so cute! I love pucks smoothly slide into the hole, it brings me joy. It would be better to put more type of pucks, the game will become super fun. I think the game is very suitable to play on mobile! Look forward to the future development!
Hi!
Nice looking game. Nice billiard :). The button to turn off/on the music is missing. Congratulations!
I really like this, it’s a really clean look and some really nice animations without being too over the top. Great work!
Very decent looking game. The consistency is very well done. And the game is addictive too.
Looks and sounds great but I didn't get very far. Maybe you could try to make it a little bit easier in the beginning? The controls are smooth and perfect for a touch screen. A minor comment is that the black holes are hard to see so please make them more visible.
Thanks for the feedback. The game needs some balance to make it easier in the beginning and more challenging the longer you progress. Thanks for mentioning that holes are difficult to see, I will improve that post jam.
Amazing and addictive game loop, simple yet challenging, there is also strategy to where and how to go. And the multiplayers adding even one more layer to how to approach it
Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it!
Aesthetics and the colors are feeling so good. The tweens and explosion effects are so satisfying. could tell you spend some effort in polishing that. it would really work great on mobile for sure.
Thanks for the feedback. I spent some time trying to polish the game were I could, and appreciate it being noticed, thanks.
One of the best games ive played yet, I need to try it on mobile aswell, I bet its even better
Thank you. I’m so pleased to hear that.
Nice game! Seems like a great fit for mobile. I like the tension between knocking enemies into holes to get more shots vs moving along toward new groups of enemies. I think this could be a solid base for a bigger game. My only real complaint is that the holes are very hard to see against the black background.
Thanks for the feedback. Thanks for mentioning that holes are difficult to see, I will improve that post jam.
Easily my favorite game of the jam so far, simple fun and plays great. I swear I wasn't copying you, we just had very similar game ideas lol
Thanks! I also liked the shuffle board game. Would be fun to play with a friend. I also swear I wasn’t copying you, haha.
A very good game, I enjoyed this (Highscore : 89)
I’m not sure what to say in terms of gameplay improvement since the game’s brief is simple and well-executed. Perhaps a larger map, more bonuses, etc., but the MVP is good.
My Mac started to heat up after a while, so maybe some optimization might be needed in terms of performance? Well done !!
89 is more than my high score (77.) Well done. I don’t clean up all the game objects and graphics for each retry, so that’s something I need to improve post jam. Thanks for the feedback.
