Popping gameplay! Well done! Super nice feel with the balloons growing and popping, so satisfying!
Added bonus with the city emerging at the back, the music and different types of bubbles showing up to spice things up.

Shingeki no Kafka Kaiju Guren LanganSimple fun game! I love bomb effects in balls :) I can't understand what difference between a simple ball and a ball with a face? :)

Growth ballThis was very fun to play! I love the art style and the way that the level grew and evolved over time, even the aspect ratio! Enjoyed all of the little details in the foreground/background as the level progressed.
I was hoping I could pause the game, but this might have been by design though, for players to play the game in one run/playthrough, with no pauses, for a true, uninterrupted high score.
Great job!

Hairy Situation!!!This was good fun. I loved how the music and stage evolved as it went on. The music was great! I just wish you could see your high score when you die before it restarts.

Grow-A-SlimePlanet Goobstar is so stinking cute. The artwork and the music are very very charming and I LOVED seeing the world grow and expand around me the longer I played! I also loved how the tone of the different goobs would change as they continued to grow and get hit. It felt very appropriate. Very visually appealing and really fun game!

Shingeki no Kafka Kaiju Guren LanganShooting and bullet hits feel very satisfying. The background growth of the world is a bit subtle and might get lost when the action gets hectic.

Fungus AmungusWhat a fantastic game! Lovely graphics and music, nice juicy feeling, and good level of difficulty. I really liked the way the world transforms as you play – I didn't notice each change as it was happening, just "oh wow, now there's a city!". I played with a keyboard and found the modern controls much easier than the classic ones. Also fitted the theme well! Nice job!

Friend RequestNice graphics and overall game feel! I liked the concept of shooting the badguys making the bad guys bigger - classic game design: the thing that helps you hinders you along the way. I wonder could a future version give some relevance to the growing garden - the various plants could spawn powerups for you or something. Well done!

Chaos RootAbsolutely adore this game! The controls are spot-on, and the way enemies bounce is exactly how you’d expect them to be. The music and sound effects are great and set the mood of the game. It’s has a good balance of calm/relaxing and hectic/intense. It’s a really good take on the top-down shooter genre. Amazing work!

Lil' Cherry's TreeThis game feels amazing! The combination of the sound effects and the bounciness of the character and the balloons makes the game feel so satisfying. This is the type of polish that I wish my games had.
