In this game, the player can shoot only one ball and then manipulate it by hitting it around, in a style similar to Arkanoid. The game is an endless mode where the player tries to survive as many waves of zombies as they can. The players can post their highest scores on the game's leaderboard, which can be viewed by any player.

Awesome take on space invaders! I really loved the idea but I had some trouble with the gameplay due to the physics. I think the ball should move slower and be a bit bouncier so that the player doesn’t have to do such a strong jolt to get it moving again.
I think the game would feel better if the physics sold the illusion of bouncing/juggling the ball rather than ramming into it
Had some troubles with sign in, it said I wasnt signed in even though I was, but fun little take on Pong & Bricks.
Nice game, I have a 4k monitor so I could not play fullscreen without lag, but as long as I avoided the edges it worked fine. The music is pretty loud and it would say I wasn't signed in even when I was, but those were the only issues I had. Good work!
A tutorial page would've been nice., took some time to figure out how to play.
Game has a nice concept, and the music goes well with it too.
Nice game.
The game feels like a space invader/bounce ball game, except you only have one ball to shoot the skeleton like enemies using your tennis/badminton. The game is confusing to play, especially if I want to re-bounce the ball again to hit the enemies, except it doesn't bounce back and the ball only stands on top of my character. Also the ball sometimes goes off-screen and I couldn't able to reach the ball. The art style is cool which reminds me of NES 8-bit art style.
A cool spin on space invaders!
It was frustrating when the ball would go out of bounds to the right and it didn't seem like there was anything I could do. I would have preferred if there was a wall that it would bounce off instead.
I also had some issues with submitting scores to the leaderboard.
Other than that it was quite fun, nice work!
Really cool game , i really love the sound effects !
Took me a moment to figure out the controls even though I read the instructions. Once I figured it out, though, it was fairly entertaining. Has an old school arcade aesthetic paired with more modern controls. Not a bad entry! More variety in enemy patterns could make it more interesting.
Interesting mix of famous games, the feedback on hit is well made. Good job!
that's a good take on the theme. I like the old school aesthetic. Though i'm not a fan of the music, the sound effects were nice. Good luck!
For some reason I feel that the story looks like my game! Really!
I like the story and the old style quality. But it's very hard to hit the ball. Sometimes he go out of the screen and I don't know how to take.
Good to know that you make this game only by three days, that's amazing!
Made it to wave 5 - cool game! It's like Breakout meets tennis with zombies! 😄
I figured out how to shoot the tennis ball by swiping the mouse from bottom to top to gain speed, but it’s not super clear. Adding a quick in-game GIF on the first level, showing the mouse movement needed to hit the ball, would really help. Nice entry!
Thank you very much!! Indeed, a GIF would really help introducing the player, will definitely add this when the jam ends
The controls were a bit difficult for me to grasp, I did get the initial ball but then how do i hit it back? I was able to spam mouse key and it did hit back once out of 10 times :/ Good music choice that captures the game vibe! Wish I could have played it as intended!
Thank you so much for playing! You are not supposed to click once you launch the ball, you have to hit it by moving the mouse so it bounces on the racket. Definitely my bad for not explaining this, sorry 😅
Gave it another shot & I think I did get it but its still quite difficult to hit the ball, Unable to get past wave 2 😅 I'm a noob in your game haha
It was difficult to understand how the game worked, I was waiting for the ball to hit the first time, but only later did I realize that you have to use the mouse to make it hit the enemies, a really cool idea, I liked the pixel art and of the sound effects that is the finishing touch to a very fun game to play, congratulations. If you could leave feedback on my submission I would be very happy.
Sound was a tad loud - but was a good throwback to ye 'ol brick breakers. Interesting that we were playing as a girl tennis cheerleader lol
