Nice job! Very basic concepts but it still makes a lot of fun playing it :)

Submitted

A really nice simple polished, puzzle game I guess?  Not too punishing or difficult (unlike past experiences) and definitely some nice QoL and really nice feedback on a good shot.  The audio slowly, I think, increasing pitch definitely gave it some extra charm and the map layouts definitely encouraged it at some points, and discouraged at others.  Which was interesting.

Though I will say the sticky walls really screwed up some of my planned bounces sometimes.  Was so sad when I couldn't bounce through the entire level.  I'd be interesting to see some mode that allows that.  

As well I will say the camera messing with your shot isn't the nicest, there being a way to stop that (holding right click) is nice, but not super explained in game which is unfortunate.  It was definitely sort of helpful after I was told about it though.  

Overall a really satisfying puzzle sort of game with some pretty good levels.

Love the concept! The art is really good and the gameplay is fun! Keep up the good work!

Great sounds and game feel, cool concept and overall a fun game.

It is very fun, the gamejuice and effects are also well done. I can see that some people might not see the use of AI, but I used it in a few situations and it felt extremely satisfying!

very addicting very fun noice

Really fun game! It was very satisfying having the ball bounce all over the place haha! As others have noted, yeah I don't see the relevance to the topic much but it was still fun nonetheless

Submitted

Really fun good job but I want more

Visuals are nice, but the topic isn't really there

Very fun game though I don't see the topic and sometimes the shot prediction goes out of the screen and because of it I don't know if it's safe so sometimes that results in my death

Submitted

I had a lot of fun playing stickochet, seeing the ball bouncing from one wall to another exactly as planned was very satisfying. But didn't get the reference to the topic. Of course you have the ghost ball, but is this really an AI? But overall pretty good

Submitted

Very nice movement and sound, I like the prediction mechanic but it takes to long to show you. 

It's really satisfying to play in general, but it sucks to die at the end of a level and have to redo stuff. I know it's my fault for not using the prediction mechanic but still some checkpoints would be nice. Excellent game!

Submitted

700 bounces! I like the idea of shooting "ghost" balls to see where the ball will go. Moving camera made precise aiming hard, there were couple of instances where i would shoot the ghost ball too early, so it would show me the wrong path. Sounds felt very satisfying. The mechanic with two-sided walls was a bit confusing, because they didn't seem like walls. Enjoyed playing through this one.

i really regret not writing this in the tutorial but if you hold down the ghost shot button after a shot it stabilizes the camera so if you make an actual shot it will follow the exact path of the ghost shot, thanks for the feedback! in a future build ill definitely change the one way platform sprite to make how they work more clear

Submitted

I love the visuals, and the sounds makes it very satisfying, especially with the breakable blocks. I'm not quite sure where the AI part of the game is, but other than that it's a pretty solid game.

Submitted

This game is really cool and polished, I really like the concept! Overall pretty cool and WOWIE! Good job!

Submitted

The mouse aim with the view keeps moving feels a little ruckus. The camera motion is nice, but it alter the launch angle a lot.

But the game does look nice, the path prediction is cool.

Developer

if you hold down the shot prediction button before a shot it stabilizes the camera :)
