very fun! a couple sound design suggestions:

  •  try randomising the volume and pitch of the fire sound a little  each time it triggers, to vary it up a bit
  • the fire sound ends quite abruptly at the end of the clip, so make sure it fades a bit nicer and for longer
  • movement and collision sounds for the cannon, cannonballs and boxes are a great way to give a sense of real weight and material to the world
  • for collisions, you can easily do it yourself and it'll be better than freesound - record some things of different materials falling off a table onto the floor. use audacity (free audio software) to change the speed and/or pitch of the sound until it feels right for the boxes. 

but it's got the makings of a good casual game, as others have said!

A simple game for a simple guy who loves to see the void, poetic

Looks legit. 

few more steps and it would be nice hypercasual game for apple/android.

It was an interesting simulation of a sentient self moving cannon  I suppose. Maybe a guy wheeling around the cannon may have added to the realism. But I can't fault the actual physics interactions. Would be nice to have a voxel building generator to destroy or something.

Really fun! Good job! I like the fact that shooting a lot the cannon moves backwards...

Really good base for something pretty fun, managed to launch myself into space and that was hilarious. 

Would have loved to see like a tiny castle or something to siege and maybe some more audio, but besides that great work!

I'm glad you like it sure i will add some building and character and add more audio :)

My grand papi used to tell me about his days in the war of manning his semi automatic cannon. Good memories.

I certainly felt like a cannon, and it was liberating.

Love the concept! the controller feels really nice, if you would add some buildings you could destroy and maybe some ragdoll characters then the game would really feel great!

I'm glad you like it sure i will add some character and buildings to make it more fun :)
