Nice little game! Fits the theme, surprises with physics and mechaincs, charms with visuals and inverted text. Gameplay is deeper than it seems at first, powering up and hitting ball at the right time, also to hit the paddle on the right side - it takes time to master, but getting a somewhat high score is so satisfying in the end. Very nice!

Island SurvivorsCute and simple concept with a great aesthetic and a lot of polish. Seems like the kind of game I'd play on my phone at the airport. I was a little confused at how the game worked at first, but loved it after I figured it out.

Dystopia Inc.This game makes my brain go brrrrrvvfffssshhh in a good way. Stimulating. I love when I can compete with myself and get frustrated to the point that I need to perfect my gameplay which is what this game offers. Also love the colors, they're very soothing. It's simple yet effective and has a good balance of strategy and luck.
a smart take on the theme and the 3D alike pixel art looks soooo good love it. Gameplay is a bit random but fun and responsive enough to motivate me to try again and again.

The Zany Zzz-ZappersClever, cute, and fun. Primary critique isn't even really a critique as much a note: Not every game needs to have longevity, and I think this game works best as a short clever concept. But in terms of replay value or the potential of scoping this into a long term game, I don't see many options for this game.
So I wouldn't even describe this as a flaw in this game, just a consequence of the concept.
Had fun though, loved your playfulness, and always appreciate another solo dev

Reinforcement Learninghow is your high score 31? the floating paddle always gets outside the screen very fast. I really wanna give this a try lol
also yeahh, i was focusing on the moving paddle cause i thought i was it, it took me a few times to realize that space moved the left paddle up and down
still a very polished thingy tho
