This is not tennis >:[ and here's why!
Visual
The game has a simple artstyle, but it works incredibly well!
Audio
Great sounds, but maybe it misses something when there is a change in gameplay :)
Tutorials
Unfortunately nothing to tell the player how to move. Would've helped me to see it was a two-players game.
Gameplay
I like the non-necessarily mirrored gameplay between the two players, and the fact that it's not only a graphical change but a gameplay change. The only bad point I can see is that it's the same order for both players.
Fun
I had fun playing against myself, it must be even better with a friend!
Bugs
There is a sound bug when the ball is against the ceiling or the floor, or just if you move with the ball, it will spam the boing sound.
If I'm right, the ball teleports above you if you crush it down while it's going vertically. But that's not really a bug, just weird.
Theme
Yep, it's in the theme :)
Interesting and unexpected idea! Nice works. ^_^
Okay, I got surprise there. Good job. But the ball is likely to get stuck or bug.
I enjoyed the surprise of the game, but I quickly got the ball stuck bouncing vertically. Nice job!
Pretty cool, nice surprise.
Thought the enemy AI was broken. Only to realize that I need play with myself :)
Cool concept for the theme! Good job.
Love the surprise mechanic!
Very surprising, at first I thought you had just made pong and was wondering what the surprise was but then the jumping changed. This was a very good implementation of the theme so well done!
Thanks so much!
Genuinely very surprising and fun. I'm not quite sure how you're meant to succeed at the one with gravity and only a square block (I found that I could "hang" onto it by pressing sideways?) but otherwise a great little game.
Thanks for the feedback!
Wow, took me a second. Nice one!
It took me way too long to realise the surprise, I'm a big dumb but it sure got me!
Wow, really well made, fun version of pong. Great implementation of the theme. I think this would be a lot of fun if I had friends.
Thanks!
Concept is really cool ! I enjoyed playing it and see how it evolved, well done !
Thanks!
I started off playing this thinking "Is it just pong?" then the surprises started and it turned into a really cute little game. I did find a few ways to cause a stalemate, but sandwiching the ball between the paddles. However, I really enjoyed it and with more development and more surprises added to it I think it could become great fun to play with a friend, maybe a tournament style with the rules changing every 15 seconds or so!
Thanks so much!
Welp I have no one to play it with, guess I'll play it against myself haha. Its a small detail; but I really liked the animation of the ball when you hit it, it adds a lot of game feel.
Thanks!!
well that was confusingly fun to play by myself
Glad you liked it!
I'm gunna lie, I played it on my own. Still didn't stop me from having fun with it though! Very good use of theme imo
Thanks!
This game is genuinely really cool. I had the most surprised face when my pong board turned into a rocket ship!!!! That was crazy awesome! I really liked how your game was two player as well; it was a blast to play with my friend. The controls felt great as well. I wish the ball moved a little faster, because I like fast paced action. Great game, thanks for bring a smile to my face with the transformations.
Thanks so much, glad you liked it! And thanks for the feedback!
Pretty cool execution. I won't spoil surprise in comments, but this game fits the theme really well and while it's very simple, it achieves what a lot of other games try to achieve pretty nicely. I do feel there is a lot to polish in this game as there are some exploits and bugs, but it's totally understandable for the jam game. My favorite part is probably the mood of the game as graphics, animations, music and sound effect create pretty chill and cute atmosphere, especially with some game juice that is added to this game. Overall really cute game and nice experience.
Thanks so much!
