I really like the music and art style of this game! But balance games can be hard to... well, balance. Maybe you were trying to go for a quicker game session, but you basically have to be on the edge of the platform when someone kicks it or the game's over (and even then, you'll be falling in the likely event that someone is climbing the pole when you're standing at the edge).
There might be something I'm missing in terms of gameplay, like some strategy involving the dash. It was a fun play, but with a bit of fine-tuning to make it feel a little less punishing (or even an "easy" mode), this game has the potential to be addictive!
Oh, and my best record was just under 16 seconds.
