I regularly waved at the ball as it wandered away from me. I'm not the best at physics.... It was still fun to try though!

Thanks for giving it a try :D

The game was quite good although the movement was quite slow. :-)

Thanks for trying it out. :)  I'll be increasing the player-cube's movement speed.

The idea of pushing things of different weights around is a pretty good fit for the limitation. I think this game would be a lot more enjoyable with a different camera angle, maybe a top down perspective, and if the player moved a bit faster. I found that every time I managed to get the ball off the platform it started rolling away faster than I could get to it and I couldn't move it over to the goal platform

Developer

Thanks for this feedback. From the feedback so far, I should definitely increase the basic speed of the player-cube, after the jam vote is done. I'll give some different camera angles a go, also. Thanks again :D

The ball moves super slow. I'll admit I lost patience with this one!

Thanks for trying it out. That's very useful feedback, and something I can easily fix (after the jam voting is over, of course). :)
