Simple idea, but you executed it really nicely. I love how there's an added gameplay element of trying to position the ball right in the middle of where the platform will be when you swap. Would love to see a version where you get a little warning before the swap happens so you can play around it more. Really nice work!

Once I figured out what was happening it was fun haha. I didn't notice a penalty for missing the ball and letting it bounce off the bottom of the screen, maybe having it destroy a random brick when it hits the floor would be a good idea? that could add more urgency to the gameplay. Also it took quite a long time to destroy the last few bricks, but I was determined to do it!

The game is very well executed and it feels very good to play. My only complaint is that it took me a while to figure out what I was supposed to be doing. Once I got the ideia that I have to dodge the ball as the big platform it felt a lot more interesting.

Anyways, the game is great. Congratulations!

Cool idea and well executed. Good game!

Such a good idea! + I LOVE brick breakers!

Submitted

I rushed to break my own bricks at first haha!


I think the concept is a super cool mashup of pong and breakout, though it gets a little tedious to hit the opponent when they have only a few bricks left, i thought the gale was fun!

Not gonna lie, I thought I had to  "die" first haha 
Creative idea nonetheless!

I like your game too! It is a interesting twist on a pong like style game, quiet enjoyable! Thanks for playing my game too. :)

Small and clever game with a cool implementation for both single and vs player modes.

The Cover Image especially is very styling. Overall good sense of identity for the game.

Good job!

Very interesting idea and nice execution. Wish there was some kind of timer saying when the paddle would switch to make it a bit more fair. Good job!

The idea was the role change would be clear enough given that it happens following the rhythm of the song, but you're right, maybe I should have made it clearer with some kind of countdown. Thank you for playing it and writing a comment!

Np, hope my feedback was useful!

Fun game! At first I thought I was playing against my own past moves haha. Well done :)

Developer

That would have been cool not gonna lie. Thank you for playing it!

Really nice game. It needs a way to get back to the menu after finishing a game though.

Developer

True, was tight on time and decided to fix some bugs instead of doing that. Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted

Took a minute to understand but its pretty cool!

Got that from someone else in the comments. Guess I'll have to go back to the drawing board to figure out how to fix that. Thank you for your feedback!

The games idea and gimmicks are fantastic, but it sucks when you get to the last singular block(s) as it is virtually impossible to clear it if you know what you're doing. I really liked the idea and it was executed very well!

Developer

Thank you! I thought the same about those last moments of the game, it truly is almost impossible to get someone to win.
