This game is so fun!! I love Morvin's evil laugh, it made me smile. But like, who is this guy and why is he so evil? And why does he take such delight in ruining perfectly good houses? I think tt would be so cool if there were a bit of dialogue / story at the beginning, even if it was just text.
Bear's games get so popular, no room left on leaderboard for a mere 78k.
Tutorial was nice, and the gameplay simple. Essentially a stream of 7 fruit wheels, with an addicting laugh.
I did find the controls a little flawed as I would drag the mouse way off to steer sharply, as required, only for Morvin to revert to the centre. I like I didn't have to click my mouse (or keyboard) to smithereens though.
Now we Morvin, that was fun. His evil laugh brings me joy.
I kept going till I got top spot, needed to be the best Morvin possible.
The more people play it, the more I realize that I am terrible at my own game hahaha!
As the top Morvin player in the world, what did you think of the difficulty? Did it overall seem pretty fair? Was it ever frustrating?
I think it was balanced fairly well, you only have to avoid the holes but due to the the nature of how the movement slings across the screen it adds a nice wrinkle where if you stop focusing for a second you could fail due to the balls momentum.
That was pretty fun ! Love me a good acardey endless game ^^
Morvin is truly the cruelest wizard of them all <3
The wizard cackle was so good, very fun controls and a fun arcade game, I love how the tutorial was presented too!
Fun game! My favorite part was when Morvin the Cruel said "It's Morvin time" and then Morvin the Cruel'd all over the place.
When you are in Morvin Mode do the orbs do anything? If not they could extend the timer slightly to give you a reason to collect them.
Hahahaha thank you! So the orbs give you magic, which gives you more control over the boulder. But I'm starting to feel like that mechanic isn't the most fun. I love that idea though :)
I was excited when I saw the leaderboard. Then I realized I'm terrible at this game. 😂
Solid fun! I do wish the boulder movement was a little bit more responsive though. I get that it's intentionally not supposed to be instantly responsive, but personally, I would prefer to have tighter control, and you can make the level harder if needed. Good work!
That wizard cackle is one of the best sounds I've ever heard in a game jam!
It's Morvin Time!
But seriously, this is fertile ground for developing a serious mobile game, it just needs a lot more variety and juice.
We so appreciate you taking the time to play and for your great feedback! We really want to take your advice and make the Boulder faster in Morvin Mode and add some possible upgrades. You really pumped us up- thanks!!!
Great concept for a great game, really enjoyed my time playing it
You dominated the leaderboard! Thank you so much for playing!
Great game, menu is awesome, was able to adjust audio! The cackle of the wizard brought me joy as the boulder rolled over houses. Simple but elegant and fun!
Thank you so much!
