This is such a cool idea for a game!

I found it slightly hard to get the ball to the frozen enemies in time

An interesting development of the Pong game and a cool implementation of the game jam theme! Cool!

Good twist for an usually classic game! I think you might want to introduce an animation before the enemy is going back to their state so the player can focus on them if the ball is around. congrats for your game 👏

That's a good idea, there's definitely some extra feedback I could add for various events and that's one of them, I think something like the ice cubes starting to crack would be a good indicator, and would properly display the fact that shooting them again resets the timer.

Thanks! I'm hoping to publish more in the future.

That's so cool. A little bit difficult for me. I got 33 points.

Thanks! I actually noticed the difficulty isn't in the best spot and didn't have time to make adjustments to make it easier.. This is partly why I made the game generous with restoring your extra lives when finishing waves/levels, and why there's a level select allowing you to choose any of the 7 levels to start from. I managed to finish it, but that's because I kept playing/replaying it to test it, definitely a lesson to get others to test the game as well and get a better idea of the difficulty.
