I see the appeal. The launching mechanic feels great, too! Fun combination of mechanics :)

It was really fun until the bug where the blocks went negative and stopped breaking. However very good game. 5/5

Developer

Thanks for playing it and the comment!
I'm sorry about that bug, I already managed to fix it, but I can't update the game until the jam is over :(

Submitted

That was good time! 

I have to admit, once I had all my minion balls going, I kind of felt like I was just like " okay guys, you go on ahead .. I'll be right there... just gotta stretch..." :)

Developer

Thanks for playing it and for your feedback, glad you liked it 😊.

Cool idea!

Tho I think the start was a bit slow, and the speed upgrade was too expensive so it could barely reach anything..

With some tweaking it will be a fantastic game! :D

Thank you for your time playing it. I would really like to improve the game once I finish the Jam, and your feedback will help me do that :)

This was kinda addicting. A little bit slow at first, and the movement was a bit finicky but otherwise a nice submission 

Developer

Thank you very much.

I would like to improve things so your comment is appreciated ^^

Loved the child between golf and the classic break out game! May be adding some type of sound or effect to bricks that need more than 1 hit would make it more engaging. Otherwise a good game!

Developer

Thank you very much for your comment and for playing it. I will take into account your advice to improve the game, I really appreciate it.

Interesting idea. Once I started unlocking more golf balls and powered them up it was getting more fun, it just took a while to get there.

Then I ran into a bug where a ball got stuck in a brick and the brick started going negative, then all the bricks stopped breaking and also went in the negative. This started stealing my money so that I couldn’t make any more progress.

As it got higher up the mountain, it felt more and more like a rage game. Not sure if that was the intention.

Developer

Oh that's a pretty serious bug, I'll take care of fixing it and update the game as soon as I finish the Jam.

I appreciate your comment and the image, it's very helpful to be able to detect those bugs.

I hope the new update will improve the feel of the game.

Thank you very much 😊

I liked the mix of game elements from shooting the golf ball and adding in extra ones to bounce around. It was a bit slow at first but I think that was all I had an issue with. Great game!

Thank you very much for playing it and your comment. You are right about it being slow and I will take care of improving the initial experience of the game. Your opinion helps me a lot to improve and it is appreciated. :)
