We represented the theme with the gear switching mechanic, always swapping to the next color in a loop. The gameplay structure is also infinite wave based, a loop.

It was very enjoyable!
Fun arena brawler, I loved the art style and the gear mechanic, altough it sometimes felt like I couldn’t switch as much I wanted, maybe if it cost half an AP orb instead of the whole one. But overall an enjoyable experience.
Thanks! I'm happy to hear you enjoyed it :D
This was a really fun little arena brawler and the color changing gear-bat mechanic was fresh enough to keep it interesting. The BGM had some neat little touches in it that felt really cool, like the "play ball" organ progression during the breakdown. Very nice little game
YAY! Glad to know the music felt engaging :D
Great artwork and intense battlefield haha
Cool game!
Thanks for playing!
Dang, super polished game! Artstyle is cute, player feedback is great and game loop is solid. Very impressive.
Thanks a lot! We appreciate it :)
Wow! Impressive assets for this jam! Really enjoyed sluggin away. Great take on the theme.
I'm also very glad with how the game ended up aesthetically! Thank you!
Tough game but I found it surprisingly fun to beat up enemies while dodging their attacks. Btw the web build also worked perfectly fine for me
Thank you for playing and letting me know! Good to hear
Fun and very polished considering you made everything yourselves! Worked fine in the web for me.
Well done
Thanks for the compliments! Glad to hear it ran fine
oooh very nice and polished for 4 days. great music and satisfying hits!
Thank you! Really appreciate it :D
nice game! i liked that each wave is kind of a puzzle
Thanks for playing, glad you enjoyed
Never played baseball before, will be swinging at people in real life now
As intended :)
OH, thats a baseball! Nice work
Hahaha we said the same thing when we came up with the design
Very cool game!
Thank you for playing !
really cool! was a bit hard and I wish the mechanics were introduced a bit more steadily. Otherwise really enjoyed the experience, graphics, sound, and was happy to see it preformed well in browser! great job all around!
Thank you! Glad to hear the experience was enjoyable :D
Neat idea, love the art and music! I feel like the combat could benefit from being able to move while attacking, as well as giving the enemies a better indicator that they're about to attack so you can dodge out of the way.
Thanks for the feedback! Definitely something we're gonna take into consideration for next jams :)
Loved the music, especially the main menu, gives off lofi vibes; the design of the main character is super polished as well as the animations, good job!
Thanks! Gab did a great job on the music indeed
YAY! Super happy to hear that :D
Insane quality! I would love more feedback before enemies hit so I could dodge easier. Otherwise really fun, love the animations, the controls are snappy, convenient arrows pointing to enemies, cool designs.
Thanks for the kind words! Indeed the enemies could have had a bit more telegraphing, if we ever update the game that's probably gonna be a priority :)
I really liked the music and graphics. It's a lot of fun to play! :D
Thanks! That means a lot to us :D
Really fun game with cool graphics specially the main character and the bgm that suits very well with the gameplay. Had a great time killing those enmies. :)
Thank you for playing our game and for all the kind words, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
WOW amazing, basically a finished game. just a lil more polish and good to go! really nice concept, aesthetics and music are great too, feels very retro
i just wish the player got rewarded with mana (or whatever that is) for hitting the enemies with the right color,
would be cool if every wave consisted of enemies of at least two different colors, so you wouldn't have to hit them knowing you have no damage, just to change colors.
Glad you enjoyed it! Happy to hear all this positive feedback :)
