A new genre: the juggling type game! I always enjoy jam games with simple controls that are easy to pick up and play. I do wish the hitboxes were bigger for the player's arms as I felt like I had to be too precise in my movements to keep the juggling going. I'm about as good at juggling in this game as I am in real life (which is to say: not good!) It's so cool that chose to use Hoot for this project!

Thanks. I originally intended to create a more realistic juggling animation, and the juggling mechanic to be just pressing a button at the right time, but in the end a poor animation with simpler mechanics seemed to work best( a happy accident I guess).
I considered drawing the hands, but knew I would not have time to animate them. I will probably add them later, there is a list of things that i would like to add, and learn a bit more of Hoot in the process.
