Very satisfying game. I like the exponentially escalating progression. The only complaint I have is that it's short and the way music cuts from the upgrade menu to the ball dropping is jarring. I'd suggest to have the music be non stop or have some jingle to fill in the silence

Haha YESSS take that tower YOU DIE

I don't know why I enjoyed this so much but I did. Well done

It would be cool to use the floors you’ve already broken through as more room to build velocity for the next ball. I felt like the controls were a little constrained to a single room when setting the initial velocity.

It was really fun and the mechanics are super simple. The upgrades were well done and adds room for more abilities in the future.

Nicely done game!

On the windows version but not the browser version none of the menu buttons except play worked, but then opening the menu from the started game lets all the button work for some strange reason. Not holding it against you;  bugs can slip through on multiple platform releases, just letting you know.

It's a very fun game. The quick destruction and upgrades can make it pretty addicting. Very good job for a first game!

This was fun! I played it to the end twice, just to see the other upgrades. I had some control issues with how the balls launched, and sometimes they seem to break much sooner than expected. Still, I enjoyed wrecking the whole tower over and over. The rogue-lite elements fit well.

Congrats on your first GWJ submission! I look forward to seeing more.

Unique and fun, what more can you ask for from a jam game. Incredibly satisfying gameplay loop with a fun light-hearted aesthetic. Great game!

I did have a bug where the upgrade menu never came back after a few rounds even after using all my balls which was a shame as that was a good run. I also think it could be a little clearer how the controls affect the outcome.

Loved this game, definitely one that could be polished up and make a nice small release out of.

Good job! It starts off a little slow and a bit confusing how to play, but once I figured it out, it was a lot of fun! Really neat art.

Nobody plummets and panics like I do. Everyone says so. Big plummets, the biggest panics.

Definitely one of the best of the jam, tons of fun.

Agree with the person who said it needs endless mode and more crazy upgrades for the balls (like maybe they could explode and such).

Great job!

This game scratches my balls...


 okay, but seriously, i'm upset i didn't think of this. SO FUN! i don't care that this is just playing on the trope of hyperdestructive games, it's still creative and charming. really love this, definitely one of my favorites so far. great job! 


please consider trying my game, too! (also 2 seconds before the deadline holy crap)

Thanks for the nice words 😊 my goal was to make a funny silly game. Was fixing bugs till the last minute 😁. Oh I was about to play your game and realized i already played and rated your game yesterday. I Had fun playing it and your artstyles reminded me of old CGA graphics games

Submitted(+1)

Had a lot of fun playing this. Just need an endless mode next!  (I want millions of gold coins hehe)

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks :). Endless mode is a very interesting idea. I was thinking about procedurally placing furniture on each floor but then ditched the idea because of time constraints. I plan to add more content after the voting is over and endless mode is on the list now :D

One of the best games on my livestream just now! (I apologize though, I had the music in your game set too loud compared to my microphone, so you can't hear what I am saying!) 

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing :D sadly i couldnt Unserstand what you said. I really have to adjust the music DB Volume when the voting is over and edits become possible again

I'm not sure if it was user error, but I never got more than one floor to go at a time, and the clicking-and-dragging to aim didn't actually seem to matter in terms of where my ball ended up. Thumbs-up to the aesthetic and idea, and definitely excited to see where this could go as it gets deeper. 

Developer

Thank you. a little Tutorial was planned but there was no time to add it before the deadline. Also stay tuned for more Game Features, when the voting Phase ist over :D

In the meantime, here is a playthrough. it starts at 44:44
