Thank you!

This is really good! I like hearing those bopping sounds like popcorn, and great music too. The bowling ball is pleasing to watch, I dunno haha. The theme implementation is outstanding. What is more impressive is this is made in Construct on mobile.

My only issues are the buttons are too small and the game was locked in landscape mode instead of portrait. Here is a screenshot of my bloody bowling ball that managed to reach 109 score.

I’m really glad you liked it! I’m not sure how to make something in both landscape and portrait so I stuck with portrait on this because it just made sense to me. Also it makes me really happy someone mentioned the ball because I spend forever on that, it has like 46 or 47 animation frames and when I got done and watched the animation I was thinking “this could have been done in like 6 frames” haha

You can set the orientation settings in your game page. When you check "Play in browser", there is a checkbox for "Mobile friendly", check the box then from drop down menu you can select Portrait or Landscape or Auto.

Great concept! The game has some nice polish, but lacks in gameplay, there's just not many things to do. However it has some nice arts and audio.

Overall, it's a good game!

Developer

Thank you! Yes I would definitely have liked to have added more than just hitting pins and avoiding fouls lines but unfortunately I just didn’t have the time nor the creative spark to get to that point

I like the camera shake and particle effects as they really make you feel the gameplay. The audio blends in well, and I like your clever take on the theme. The only thing I would change is the size of the arrows as sometimes I have trouble tapping on them. Really nice game all around!

Bowling splits are a great way to interpret the theme! Great work.

The game is really interesting and I love the way you took the theme ! While everyone looked for splitting things, you thought about bowling's splits ^^ The graphics and the music are good. However, the game is a bit easy and would need other elements that could make the player lose or gain speed. I was only able to play the game in portrait mode on my phone which is a bit sad because the screen was therefore very small. Great job, continue like this !

Thank you! I’m really glad you enjoyed it and yes I do agree there could be a lot more done with it than what I did. It’s too easy to avoid the gutters and the difficulty spike jumps from too easy to impossible in the matter of seconds. I’m really glad you had a good time playing it though!
