Nice twist! It works really well and it looks good. It got me in that "one more try" zone for a bit. :)
I'm glad someone did this idea! I thought in that but wondering how to make it fun, and you did it fun! Great! Well polished
This one was silly, I liked it! At first I thought my goal was to escape the playing area (yeah yeah, I didn't read the instructions, lol) but then when I accidentally stayed for a while (I tried to leave but I kept failing!) I realized that the score in the background was the number of paddle hits I got! And then for some reason it got way harder for me for some reason. Anyway, I think there's a lot of potential for variants here - let someone else play the pong paddles and you play the ball trying to escape, for example. Really cool game!
Love the visuals on this especially
The summary was right hahah. Sometimes I focus on the paddles instead of the ball so I keep failing ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
Hehe. Believe me, after making the game I still keep doing that as well. 50 years of muscle-memory, i guess! Thanks for playing!
Is that so? Anyways you're welcome 👍
