I like the concept, though I would make the paddles move detached from the player control.

At first I thought I was controlling the paddles but after some time I understand the controls. It's a good idea but it can be better indicated to the player that they controls the ball. Other than that good job ^^

Nice. It seems you're controlling the ball AND the paddles though, which means you can put yourself in a safe spot bouncing back and forth without worries. I think if you had offset the paddles, for instance, it would have been more challenging. But well done!

I liked it a lot! I've seen a similar game to this one, this one was so cute and polished! Nice game! Sadly I got -22!(If this were golf I would have a wonderful score.) GG! I liked it a lot. I know I've already saidI liked it but GG!


If you have time, could you check out my game?

It's a simple yet effective idea and I really liked that! It got me engaged until I scored 100 points because it had a solid core loop and the song was a total banger. I loved when it dropped to silence and the collect-coin or bracket-bounce sound effects kicked in. It was almost like I was making part of the music, lol.
I struggled a bit to get the hang of it at first. Maybe explaining the rules in the description in a few sentences or inside the game itself would work great.

Other than that, great arcade experience!

Ha nice take!

The ball got stuck in the edge ans started bugging. Maybe you could have made a restart point when it hits the wall or when you lose a point.

I don't think it fits well with the theme, its not role reversed since you control both the ball and the brackets. The music is very loud and the game is not very engaging :(

Interesting idea! There are some bugs though
