that was absolutely awesome! i really love these types of games. super simple yet extremely addictive to get a better score :D managed to get 283 ^^

my only remarks are missing audio and the controls. i think it would be easier if the ball would simply be controlled by left and right cursor keys (e.g. it always moves if you press a button, and only stops if you release it), similar to super hexagon.

Developer

Thanks! Someone else suggested that kind of controls too, so I think I will make it an option (I'm planning on making a 'full version' of this game) :)

Audio is indeed sorely lacking! Will definitely add that in the non-jam-version!

I know nothing about American football, but now I guess, I know how it feels :D

So, the game surprised me, simple and addictive. My best distance is 268. Improve the graphics, add some effects on collision to make it more addictive )

Thanks! I will!

(btw I don't know anything about American football either lol, I hope I didn't misrepresent it :P)

Oh I like that. Short and sweet. Very relaxing, almost hypnotic, like bouncing a balloon off another balloon.

Developer

Thank you :$

Controls feel a little off, feels like when pressing left or right the player should continue to rotate clockwise/counterclockwise instead of ending once they reach the side.

I like the simple graphics. Very nice presentation!

Nice game. In the beginning that was not clear what to do, but during the time it got hooked me.

I hope my feedback was useful! I'd appreciate it a lot if you could check out my submission too!

I don't know what thecontrols of this game are, but i'm doing absolutely nothing and i haven't died yet. Maybe make a better tutorial next time and make it so that it actually matters if you play the game. The graphics look really interesting tho, but music and sounds would make the game much better.

I hope the feedback helped you a bit, it would be nice if you could check out my submission too. Thanks. :)

Hm thanks, that's odd. What distance did you get without giving any input? The enemies are a bit random so maybe you got lucky?

The controls are simply the cursor keys (or analog stick if you have a gamepad), thanks I should have made that clear somewhere

I can't control anything somehow, no matter what i press, nothing happens.

Developer(+1)

That's odd! What browser? And are you running full screen or windowed? I will ask some friends and see if they have the same issue. Thanks for reporting!

This game is awesome. I love the originality of the concept most of all. It's a tight and simple game mechanic that is fun every time. I would really like to see a quick 4 directional dodge implemented, probably with the WASD keys. maybe adding a stamina bar to limit your dodges would make it really interesting. 

I love the graphics style as well, very very clean pixel shapes and a great ui font. A wonderful endless minigame.

Developer

Thanks! I might continue on this project, I'm gonna consider the dodge move too, that might well make it more interesting indeed :)

24.3 cookies? Anyways, the game is really fun! The controls are a bit hard to get into. You could've also used some glow to the shapes but it isn't that needed. It's not that sporty but great game. Also, check out our submission if you have time!

Developer

Thanks! And what can I say, I really like cookies!
