my lack of coordination is starting to show lol...Really fun though, it looks/sounds/feels like a classic arcade game! This could make a great co-op game.

I loved the aesthetic of this game! Once I got the hang of the controls I could keep the ball up for around 30 passes; I think the pass also goes much faster if you press the button late, which made me panic a lot and try to recover! Great game overall.

Developer

Thanks a lot for commenting!

It does get faster when you're late to hitting the ball, I'm glad it gave the sense of urgency I expected haha

The game was so entertaining! I love reaction games like this with high tempo music :D I tried so many times with different techniques to beat your score! Finally got 58  d(* ̄o ̄)! This would be fun to play with a friend, great job!

Really really really liked how this played. When I lost I absolutely always felt like it was my fault, never the games. Great concept and execution. The color change of the ball so you know where it's going was also a nice touch.

Developer

Thanks a lot for your comment!

I always try to get the gamefeel right in my games, so reading that the game is fair and rewarding means a lot.

I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

The idea of beach volleyball at sunset and the gameplay is amazing. Visuals and audio cannot be better than this. Congratulations!

Awesome visuals, sounds and music on point :-). For me it would be better if the game started a bit easier and then gets harder with time. I was a bit frustrated after dropping the ball so often at first (played on desktop). Overall good job! :-)

Developer

Thank you so much for your kind words!

I agree a slower start or a tutorial to get accostumed to the controls would've done wonders, but time constraints :p 

Appreciate the feedback a lot :)

Pretty and easy to understand. I like how hectic it gets. Well done! (I played on phone and it feels like its the optimal and most fun way to play)

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I too agree it plays better on phone.

Thanks a lot for your kind words and for taking your time to comment!
