Very nice touch that they break off each other if you go too fast. Sound effects are good. Nice work.

Fun: I didn't like the breaking apart part. I feel like I would have preferred if you could move the chain as much as possible(making it more fun personally( and you could click a button to break it apart.

Originality: I've seen this chain idea a lot, but not with the idea of hitting it away as much

Presentation: The art was weird, some pixel art and some not, but the post-prossesing helps. The music was nice too

Overall: Nice game! I ended up playing way more than I thought I would!

Highscore: 21

thanks for the feedback origin of chain breaking apart was to prevent player from spinning circles with high speed which would make game too easy

Simple, yet addictively fun! It's hard, but not in an annoying way. I love the sound effects and the way I can smack the balls around. I felt like a real ninja!

One possible improvement I would suggest is the ability to grab the other end of the nunchucks.

Fantastic job!

Inventive, difficult game! Brilliant lighting as well.

tricky! I only nailed a red one once

Submitted(+1)

whis game is so hard!

good work though. I felt like a ninja when I reached a two digit score for the first time

I love the lighting, and it's simple yet fun. I did feel though, that when you snap the chain and it flies off and turns pick that it was unfair that it doesn't return if you miss with it. It is made even worse due to the fact that you often whip your nunchucks way too hard, and one handle goes flying. Other than that it was a really fun and simple game, really like it!

Amazing idea and really nice graphics and music but it's so hard

Submitted(+1)

Cool game, but I can't figure out how to defeat the pink orbs. Can you tell me how?

Developer

It's easy you need to break the chain and then blue handle will become red capable of reflecting red ball if you succeed it will come back ;)

Submitted(+1)

oh ok. That's pretty hard though. Overall cool game, just very difficult.

I felt like a ninja, this was fun.  It was hard to get the hang of it at first, but once I figured it out I was having fun.

The sound effects are really good to.  I think the sound effects even helped me learn how to play.

Nice little game ! The concept is simple and really smart, I had a lot of fun playing this. Congrats !

Submitted(+1)

Cool game! I had a similar take for the theme :)
The pink orbs are definetly a good addition. Clever idea to make use of the hinge joints breaking.

It took me a while to figure out, but once I did, It was a lot of fun.

Astoundingly addictive! It took me ages to work out why i was dying all the time, but for some reason i just kept on playing until i worked it out (that being said, instructions would be nice; i don't know why the chain broke). The game made me feel reeeally cool whenever i stayed alive for 12 seconds though, which was really impressive.

I feel like the game could have been a little easier, maybe with a bigger screen so you could see balls from further out, but hey maybe i just need to get good.

All in all though, suprisingly addictive! Very well done!

Developer(+1)

Yeah I did not have time for tutorial so i made instruction on game page but probably it is not obvious that there is an instruction nonetheless I'm happy that you enjoyed the game

Submitted(+1)

Really fun game! My best score was 28, ended by a red ball. I did figure out how to deflect red balls, but I feel like they're a bit unfair with how long it takes to recover. Otherwise, really unique little idea!

Developer

Yeah most of the time there is a little time window where you can do it pretty safely, but i agree that sometimes it's a little bit unfair

Submitted(+1)

Nice game,  just the right amount of challenge and the music makes the game feel great overall!

Submitted(+1)

Cool game. I love bloom in games. There should be a little meter or something to let you know the stress of the chain before it breaks though.

Submitted(+1)

Boy, that was simply satisfying! So punchy!

Submitted(+1)

Love the look and the idea. I wish the chain was just a little harder to break!
