Fun Game! I really like the mechanic. I think the camera was a bit too shaky for my taste, although it also made the ball seem more powerfull.

really fun, hitting enemies is very satisfying.

I think this would make for a great mobile game, maybe add something like a store where you can buy upgrades in between rounds. Really well done!

Wonderful juice and presentation! I think the camera might pull in and out a bit too aggressively, but it feels super satisfying to play the game and reel in the wrecking ball after sending it off. A very creative use of the Joined Together theme, exploring what it means to be joined together and what it means to remove that control!

Oh this one feels absolutely amazing! I really like it!

Fun game! The feel of bowling through enemies with the wrecking ball is very satisfying and handling the ball is intuitive. Well done!

Very juicy and satisfying to play! I think I'd prefer the wrecking ball to move a tad faster so swinging it into enemies would be a more viable option (as opposed to just parking the ball behind enemies and then letting go of space), but this is a great idea for fun little time killer. :)

Very fun, lots of juice to it, hope to see more of it.

Very fun! Being able to release the ball is a really smart mechanic. Would have been nice to add some temporary power-ups, and I feel the minimum speed necessary to kill the robots is too high (i.e. they should die to a slower ball). Otherwise cute and fun!!

Awesome. I had a great time playing this. The particle effects and screen shake really make that wrecking ball feel like it has weight to it, good job. This was so fun I just wish there was more to it.

Amazingly fun game! The controls are easy to pick up but tough to master, the enemies are fun to kill, there's tons of replayability. I really like how the enemies did a charged attack so it was easier to dodge rather than contact damage. If this game was polished with new art and music to be a bit better on the presentation side it would be a flawless entry.
