Aim is a bit clunky, I think aiming with mouse will work better.
Suits theme well, but no online leaderboard, and I've seen couple of soccer pong games.
Looks are not very pleasing, that gate is pretty cool, everything else is too contrasty and doesn't work as coherent style.
Music is cool, SFX are ok.
Hello, thanks for the feedback! At first, I implemented the aiming using the mouse, but after a few playtests including having my girlfriend and a couple of friends try the game, none of us liked how it felt. I initially thought the mouse would feel better, but after playtesting, it resulted in worse gameplay compared to using the arrow keys. Because of that, I changed the aiming controls to the arrow keys.
The leaderboard requirement said it could be offlineor online. I started development on Sunday night and I was busy with Christmas activities, so I prioritized finishing the game. I thought that wouldn’t be a problem because the requirements didn’t say it had to be online 😅, if I had started the development Friday or Saturday of course I would have done it
I mean, online leaderboard is not obligatory but it adds a lot to competitiveness of a game, yknow, player wants to climb leaderboard and show off how good they are
I mean, I'm not saying the opposite, I would’ve loved to implement that, but I started solo development late on Sunday night like I said xD, I finished the game in that night and since the requirements said offline was fine, I focused on finishing the game, fine-tuning, search suitable music etc, but yeah, is something I would have loved to do and of course you totally right
Fun idea. I had an issue on my runs where no matter where or how i hit the ball it always went into the top right corner and i could not move it away from the corner or get it to go anywhere else.
Hello! Do you mean the ball got stuck in the right corner or the ball always went to the right corner? If is the second case, you need to aim the shots with the arrows keys.
Very nice game! The music is addictive.
neat game our games are super similar , great minds think alike !!! lol
