Eyy, thanks for playing! I completely agree about the item cannon being annoying. I'm currently working on the next version of the game and I think I've come up with a solution that I'm happy with. In my current work in progress version the items freeze in place after you let go of them. This also has the nice side effect of giving you something stationary to push your other items against to adjust their rotation which is pretty fun. Really glad you enjoyed playing and I hope your buddies do too :) . (I'm also planning on adding an endless mode so you can compete with your buddies to see who can get further :O )
