Really loved the logo and name. The idea of the middle line moving was neat and created an interesting gameplay. I streamed my thoughts and playthrough here https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1113579105?t=00h34m39s

Wow, all three of us are happy to see our game being played on your twitch channel :D

Thanks for playing it man, and we really appreciate your thoughts and suggestions <3

Absolutely! Had a blast with it. Hit us up if you ever want us to test a new build!

I like the style of the game. However, an explanation of how to play would be very good.

It would also be cool if you check out my submission. Thanks ^^

We put the instruction on the itch.io page itself.
You just need to scroll down.

Thanks for playing it.

I love how the player controls the ball with movement. It creates interesting gameplay.  The amount of screen shake seems a bit high. Cool music though I feel like there should be some sort of sound effects for when the player hits the ball.

Thanks for your feedback!
The SFX couldn't be integrated in time since we were using a new plug-in and had a lot of issues on the way.. In the finalized version, you can hear the ball bounce and the players react :)

Didn't have anyone to play with. Love the futuristic setting though! Also great concept for a sport, rules etc. Very original. Good job on limitation as well! If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball!

Nice graphic . I'd like that. I'd appreciate it a lot if you could check out my submission too!

Cool spin on dodgeball! I like how you also control the ball, can lead to some hectic games! :)

took me a while to realize that i was able to control the ball… should’ve read the instructions :D we were playing 5 minutes just trying to evade the ball, wondering what the colors meant xD really nice and unique touch to dodgeball! enjoyed it quite a lot.

Developer

Thanks! Since we had not much time left, we outsourced the instructions to itch.io description, we apologize. Glad, you guys enjoyed it

That's a pretty smart game. 

The losing player gets more time to control the ball but also less space to dodge it, that's a really nice balance mechanic ! 

I really enjoyed it !

Thank you for the positive feedback.

We also updated some visuals and will update it in itch as soon as the jam is over.

So it may be worth to revisit :)


EDIT:

Apparently, the rules of the jams allow updating the project during the voting phase, so feel free to play it anytime soon.

I have a loading error, but logo looks stylishly)

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

Could be your browser. Which one do you use? 

Thanks for the feedback. 

Submitted(+1)

Yeah, I used itch's browser, and in common browser all is good)

Nice physics mechanics and interesting concept - so playing split-screen mode with myself))

I personally think it would have been more fun if  it was a 2d game, but it's fun nonetheless, I had lots of fun with it. Keep up the good work. ;)
