The difficult of the game makes me wanna keep playing

Really great job :)

A lovely short game! Playing it alone is tough (I kept expecting the arrow keys to control the character on the right side, and would often get stuck on walls), but is, indeed, rewarding. There is not much depth, it seems, in the gift system (not that it's needed), but its broadening would encourage replay as much as the uncontrollable human urge to see every caption based on the end score.

As a final note: the theming is supreme. The intro sets the mood perfectly, and the varied sources of power-ups are a nice touch.

Controlling two characters in a fast pace game is a bit hard for me. But this game has a great concept! It feels very polished! Congrats!

IT CAME UP ON MY QUEUE! NICE! hahah

This wasn't even in my rating queue but it's so neat and fun. I honestly hate games with these controls but the humour and forgiveness of the air-hockey puck physics plus the theme kept me in it. RIP Toronto Maple Leafs

Super cool idea and executed super well, I think the controls need changing though, because as soon as you cross wires, your brain can no longer work out which is which, especially when skating at high speeds. Super well done!

Scored 7 and will have a peacful wedding :D

Juice is very nice, but wow, controlling two slippery characters is really hard ! At least you did a good thing by having no game over, so it's not frustrating !

Submitted

Very cool game, but sometimes the pucks fly through the line.  Great work!

Pretty hard! Got only 7 on my first try. Loved the poem, and this concept might be fun in real life, too. You said it was designed for single player, but it feels more like a co-op game. Can't come up with any constructive criticism this time.

I had hard time to score some goals as I play alone, but this is very fun and very well executed! Great game!

it's a fun little game that takes a while to try and play right, only managed to get 8 points :)

Fun game, well done! 

The puck would sometimes go through the rope at certain angles oddly enough!

So difficult for a single player... But perfect to play with your partner? That's a nice and innovative little game! 

Thank you for your work!

Hello, very nice idea! My best: 9. sounds are nice. Good job!

love seeing other marriage games!!

the concept is solid and the implementation is really fun to play around in. i just wish i was better at it haha X_X

Submitted

Nice game! The concept is super cute, and the sound effects were oddly satisfying. I found it fairly difficult to keep the controls mapped properly in my head, and often ended up going in the wrong direction. I imagine that having two actual players makes the game infinitely more fun, as you can just focus on your own controls, while also introducing the hilarity of trying to coordinate with someone else.

Good job!
