Developer

Thank you so much! Has always been one of my favorite kind of games to play with a podcast or something on in the background.

I really like how you implemented the arkanoid style gameplay into your narrative, it was very clever. I loved the pixel art and the design of your menu/map screen.

Developer

Thank you, I'm glad you liked it!

Beautiful artwork!!

Thank you! Just starting to get a handle on doing pixel art, but making the art for this game has definitely made me want to keep going and improve.

Really loved the cryptid theme, and i've always wanted to be moth man! Interesting take on the ball and paddle gameplay as well, keep it up!

Developer

Thank you! Mothman is my wife's favorite cryptid so it was the natural choice.

Hey, I really loved playing your game! There's only one small issue when I hit the ball at a certain angle (I must have been unlucky, hah) it started endlessly colliding between both side walls and was impossible to unstuck.

So glad you liked it! And thank you for letting me know about the endless bouncing, not exactly intended behavior. I'll have to see what I can do to fix it.

Really creative take on brick breaker! But there's a bug where clearing all the bricks doesn't seem to beat the level.

Developer

Thank you! And thanks for letting me know about the bug. I think I know what the problem is, I should have it fixed later today.
