Man, this game is AWESOME! It poses some really fun challenges. 
That first lava level seemed impossible, but for each try I learned something new, and then suddenly I figured it out! That's some great level design right there :) 
The pace of the tutorial is perfect btw.

Glad you enjoyed playing it! :)

Your game was fun to play .  As mentioned below a UI upgrade will  help give your game polish  adn with some extra levels  you got a very good game . 

Developer

Thanks for playing! I`ll add some more levels soon.

Loved the game. But I think you should upgrade the UI and also I think level 11 is quite unfair. The player can't feel much controll over the level. I think you should make some indication of where the paddle is. I think you could make a perfet mobile game out of this. I'd definitely download it.

Developer

Thanks for playing! I have had similar feedback about level 11 and I agree an indicator above the paddle would definitely be good. I`ll add this soon. As for making it a mobile game, I may consider doing this however I`d have to figure out how the controls would work on mobile as mobile controls may make the game much harder.

I think the simplest way would be to cut the game a bit. Remmove jumping and moving keep only firing . Where you press on the screen, there the gun fires. If you do the mobile port, message me. I'll try it

Fun! Challenging, but also rewarding! The sense of speed was simply amazing, and the music was a blast to listen to. Would play more if the game ever got more levels and mechanics. =)

Developer

Thanks for playing! Really glad you enjoyed it. I do plan on hopefully adding a few more levels and mechanics in an update in the next few days so stick around for that. Glad you liked the music though I rushed it a bit on the last day so I didn't get to make as much as I would have liked.

Nice game, solidly done. It's pretty tough though. Really liked the music. :)

Maybe you could give a bit more ammunition at the beginning for the attraction gun to make the first levels a bit easier.

Yea this is a good suggestion. I might implement this for the first few levels.

Submitted

Really well done - tough levels and solid gameplay loop.

I agree with the other comments regarding the UI. It could be improved. Other than that, I really loved the music and the visuals. I had some trouble trying to understand the right physics of the game while playing. Also, I think from an UX perspective, the shooting could be replaced with some sort of booster or jump cue. But awesome work :)

Developer

Glad you liked it. I`ll definitely update the UI soon. As for replacing the shooting with a booster, etc. I considered doing this from the start but then it would make sense to reverse the mechanic so you move away from where you`re aiming. I think I`ve seen that done quite a lot of times before so I didn`t want to do that.

This game was fun, and at first hard to get but once I got into it it was a lot of fun. I agree with FoustVonFist though, the UI was a bit barebones, but everything else was pretty good!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing. I agree some of the UI was a bit basic as that wasn`t my main focus but I`ll try to update this soon. Glad you found it fun :)

Submitted

this is a boss game should fix the UI then its good.

Developer

Thanks for playing! What did you think was wrong with the UI?

Submitted

could have been spiced up ya know. like instead of the dull gray which doesn't really suit your game. you could have gone neon green, or glowing blue. and the buttons icon could have been more shazamy. hope it helps

Developer

Ok thanks. I`ll keep that in mind.
