I'm in love with this game, this is my favourite so far of the entire jam! I'm a sucker for a outside-the-box idea and cute character designs, this has both, and as a bonus, clever writing, well-fitting music and fun gameplay with different mechanics added such as the bomb and glass. Amazingly done!
so cute!!!
the character design in amazing!! all the art really!!
i loved the different mechanics too!!!
This is such a cute game that already feels full. The art is soooo adorable, the scene and vibes are great with very fitting music. Billiards is certainly a game of skill, and I love the narrative inserted in between levels.
Some bugs with the aiming but was neat nonetheless! Sure has a 40s crime film vibe to it. Probably the most creative interpretation I've seen of the theme too, so nice job! Ain't nothin' like a strike to swipe away the smoke, even for just a teeny chunk longer, aye?
hahahaha glad it helped get you into character ;) Thanks for playing!
Awesome game! Played it on a touchpad, so it was a bit tricky, but I still managed to beat it. Great job!
Yeah touchpad is a little rough. We definitely want to polish those pool mechanics. Thanks for playing and getting to the end!
lmao this was super fun, would definitely be down for more!
Thanks so much for playing!
Absolutely insane entry, everything is so good I'm still shocked! Great art, concept, gameplay, music. If this was a full fledged game with some tweakings and more levels I would definitely buy it! Great job guys
Thank you! We might consider developing it further! Thanks for playing :)
WOW. This game shouldn't work but it does. The art. The music. Incredible work! 5 stars all around from me!
Thanks so much :)
Nice Art the pool idea is fun for the character
Thanks for playing!
An armadillo detective obtaining information by rolling into a ball and playing pool. This is such a profoundly bizarre concept, but the fact that it's presented completely seriously makes me adore it so much.
The gameplay is pretty fun, though I think it needed a little bit more polish. Regardless, I very much enjoyed unraveling the loopers mystery. My favorite character is the frog mobster who "deals in chalk, not in talk".
Hahaha thanks for playing! Yeah definitely would love to spend time polishing the pool mechanics and boss battles. We just had too much fun with the story and art we ran out of time lol. Thanks for playing!
I really like the different variations of pool with the different characters. I also enjoyed reading through the narrative throughout the game.
Thanks a ton! Glad you liked it!
Well done my fellow detective!
Game page with the images are looking CRISP!
I really love your characters, your main-character is such a cool person!
Such a unique idea making the character cool/cute but also the ball itself.
I really like what you did here.
Simple, effective and fun! Good Job :D
Thanks for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed it :D
A creative spin on pool! I love the art style and its one of the first game jam games with a really immersive narrative. i love it, well done! :D
Thank you so much! Glad you liked it :)

Thank you! We had a lot of fun on designing the whole vibe.
