What a unique concept. I had fun playing it. I think the progression is a bit slow and when shooting angle get more random range it become difficult to know when to kick back

Developer

Thanks for Playing! I was hoping that during first 15 points, players will be able to get their timing down. And then I can elevate the speed and difficulty.

This was awesome! Something about avenging Dave kept me hooked, and it was really fun kicking the enemy team lol. I also liked the curve balls and the referee coming in, it added a lot of depth to the gameplay. Awesome game, keep it up! 

Developer

Thanks for Playing! I'm glad you enjoyed hitting them with their own balls XD

Super fun to play! Returning the ball and getting a hit on them is very satisfying!

very well executed!

Pretty cool game. Very impressed you managed to make this many levels, and art assets in such a short amount of time. Easy controls, but rounds felt a little long. Otherwise great stuff :)

Would love if you could also check out my submission!

Developer

Yeah man! Thanks to my wonderful teammates for the assets. I made configurable parameters for the game. Which made making levels easy!

The round speeds up after score 15 when it increases to 2 enemies and again at around score 40 at 3 enemies.

I checked your submission too! Great game!

Just as I got the hang of it, the game started throwing curveballs at me! I really liked how the game starts out simple but keeps adding twists to keep you engaged. The sound design was solid, and the menu was polished. Unfortunately, the leaderboard did not work for me, so I'll just put the score here

Developer

I am really sorry! The issue is fixed now.

No worries! I think there are more broken leaderboards than working ones this jam

Making a 100 levels in a 3-day jam is crazy. The crazy thing is that all these levels are very unique. For example, levels have different amounts of players, referees watching your every move and ball speed changes.

The fact that the player can shoot the ball back at the enemies is a cool idea and that "bam" animation text looks very neat.

I love the ball physics; although, sometimes when the ball hits my character, the ball will go through them and the fallen guy too.

Also, I don't know if the leaderboard system is working because I feel like any score I get won't show up in the leaderboard and the fact that playing levels in the level selector won't register your score in the leaderboard either.

The sound effects are amazing.

The leaderboard system broke at the last moment. I have fixed it. just unable to upload. Thank you for your kind words. Our team including myself worked very hard these 3 days
Edit: Fixed the leaderboard System now.
