This is one the cool game of this jam..
Levels makes it more interesting to play
Very cool idea and almost flawless execution. Takes some practice, but it's worth it. The game feels really polished, I like the added visual effects.
If I may suggest two tiny UX improvements: removing the delay from the "RETRY" button's appearance would be great (sometimes I know in 2 seconds that I screwed up and would like to restart right away); also, if the aiming tap could start from anywhere on the screen instead of just the ball it would be easier to control, especially on mobile.
Dizzy Ball is definitely in the TOP 3 overall best entries I've seen so far!
I agree with all of this. Especially the restart delay, maybe a keyboard button to press?
Perfect fit for the theme and really cool concept overall! The trace is a nice touch and helps with the planning, my only complaing would be that even with the help of the trace I found it a bit hard to plan my route and I would often end up trying random shots hoping that all that bouncing would help. With that in mind I agree that a quick retry key would've helped
I went to level 12 with regret that the game was over! It was fan!
Really fun game. The concept is very simple but it works & feels good to play.
Ran into a few 'minor bugs' (not 100% sure) where the balls would not head in the right direction at launch but nothing game breaking.
A quick retry (like the r key) could be a good improvement for when you know you missed your shot. so that you dont have to wait for the ball to stop.
Appart from that, really good game.
Nice job :)
Amazing work! This is probably the best game I've played at this point. The gameplay is really snappy, the onboarding for the levels is great and the extra polishing with effects/post-processing and audio really add to the visuals. Outstanding job making this in 2 days!
Fun game! You used the theme really well here.

Incredibly well polished, and great feeling to the controls! Although that sometimes made the level about just getting max speed and blasting through with the correct angle. But nonetheless, a very very solid game, with a lot of good qol features like the level select and the persistent trails. Incredibly fun!
Very interesting and innovative concept! Great SFX and tutorial. It would be nice to have a quick retry button. At most of the levels I felt that my success was more dependant of luck than skill, I just had to try many times at slightly different angles and it eventually worked out lol. But overall it was a fun experience!
I really liked it! When I beat level 12 I went back to the menu to check if it really was the last one lol. Some points that stood out for me were the fact that the ball leaves a trace so I can kinda see what I did wrong in the previous attempt, and also how I can just choose what level I want to play right from the menu (although I did play it in the proper order). Very good application of the theme, the way it rotates really makes the game a lot more fun and challenging. Good job!
I easily got stuck but I still enjoyed. :D I like it and as feed back I think it could be cool to add full screen. could you tell me what you think of my game please?
Very polished and so fun to play! I did get a few lucky oneshots so that balanced out the more frustrating levels that I just couldn't get through - like number 6, that took me forever. Great game
Fun game! Really cool concept! Sometimes I felt That I had to wait for the retry button to show up after I botched a shot, otherwise great game!
You're totally right about the retry button. I made it really long because sometimes you would complete a level and the retry button would show up before the next level button, so I just made it uncomfortably long lol. Thanks for playing!
Great game! loved the effect with the lines that are still there so I could see what moves I had made. Smooth controls!!
Very polished game! I liked turning mechanic there. But it was hard to manage 2nd level. I know it is hard to manage difficulty such a short time so I won't complain :D. Good job

Felt clean and pleasant to play. Nice job!
amazing!🙃🕹✌
Really appreciated the small details such as the trace the ball leaves! I think the core concept for the gameplay is pretty good, but the level design felt a bit lacking. Bonus points for throwing on filter, that makes the game stand out when everyone is using the same assets.
