Managed to get  score 123! I like the way the arena expands with the score

The game runs very nice. No bugs.

The only suggestion is to make the player more responsive. It takes too much time to run and move.

My 1st playthrough, my score was 11 because the movement was slow and I couldn't keep the ball up in the air in time.

But my 2nd playthrough was even worse, only a score of 7. 

It's a nice idea to use the concept of heading the ball as a soccer game to improve player's coordination and motor.

I would say , simple and fun . Little bit too easy and the player movement felt kinda slow to me . Just my personal preferences . But it was fun . 

Developer

Thanks, I appreciate the feedbacks.

Loved the simplicity, the walls starting closed and then expanding were a neat way of generating difficulty. However, it's a little too easy to keep the ball on top of the character's head and farm points that way instead of trying to move around.

Developer

Actually, I did tone down the difficulty because I don't want people to rage quit. I really appreciate your feedback btw, thank you.

A nice and simple take on the theme. I think the gameplay should be a little more difficult because sometimes the ball just stays in place.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback.

The game was very simple, but also very relaxing, just keeping the ball on the character's head. It was actually a lot of fun!

Developer

Wow. Now I really want to see if someone can beat that score.

expanding this field was really unexpected and good idea to keep the game more dynamic! the controls are a bit "heavy"

Developer

Thanks. I appreciate the feedback.

cool game, we had a similar idea! The expanding walls is a really clever way of slowly increasing difficulty. Nice work! 

Developer

I just checked yours and WOW. That is cool.
