I like the idea.
I think if the meatballs had more weight, it would go a long way in making feel less frustrating.

Thanks for playing! Yeah I was messing around with the mass of the meatballs, i tried to make the small ones very light and the big ones heavier for better control. In the early stages the meatballs would fly very far when i hit them.

The environment felt very nice and i loved the concept very much! I felt a lot of frustration trying to get the meatball past the first obstacles.

Developer

Thanks for playing! Yeah testing the game was frustrating for me, that's why I decided to place meatballs throughout the level to give the player a chance to get some points :)

Very weird game. The design of the spaghetti man is amazing. I really enjoyed it and if it was your first game jam props to u. I liked the setting in the kitchen as well. All looked great. The gameplay is quite hard although satisfying if you get lucky. Maybe making it longer with more traps while u could grab meatball and go through the traps towards the pan would be better and with larger ones you could push them with your hands or grab it but move slower. Still nice weird game I liked it.

Very hard game but rewarding when you finally get a meatball into the pan.

Cool Idea. Tough game for sure.

Spegettiman might be the scariest thing I’ve seen since ManPac. Is the objective just to kick and push the meatballs into the pan? If so, this is hard as hell.

Yeah its mostly down to luck, would have been better but didnt have the full 7days to use due to work. Mouse and keyboard is easier than the controller :)
