My inner gambler loves the game! Tho I couldn't really understand the difference between kicking and not kicking

Hey! I am glad you liked the game. The system secretly decides whether the next round is goalable or not.If you kick the ball, while the system decides the ball is not goalable, then it’s a wrong guess and vice versa. So each next round has exactly 50/50 probability of being right guess. I hope that makes it clear.I wish I have made that more clear in game but we ran out of time.
I don't understand the difference between kicking the ball and not kicking the ball, when I kick and monster goes to the right I win, when I don't kick and monster goes to the right I also win which is weird, isn't it supposed to be like, opposite? like Kick: goes to left loose, goes to right win, Don't Kick: goes to left win, goes to right loose.
Hey! Thanks for playing the game. About your question, the direction of kicking doesn’t determine anything for now. It’s a probability type game where you have to guess whether it’s okay to kick the ball or not. If you kick the ball, while the system decides the ball is not goalable, then it’s a wrong guess and vice versa. So each next round has exactly 50/50 probability of being right guess. I hope that makes it clear.I wish I have made that more clear in game but we ran out of time.
Game is cool, i like it. Visuals minimalistic, pleasant, grate. Gameplay is pretty interesting. Sounds and music is good, but for sound on hover card is very unpleasant. By the way, is the game infinit?
I didn’t like it. Why does the monster catch a ball I didn’t throw?
And also, the right choice is almost always not to play…
Hey! It’s okay you didn’t like the game. It doesn’t catches the ball, it’s an animation to show what’s right choice and what’s wrong. It’s not literal physics we just reused the animation to avoid making more animations. And No, the right choice is not almost always not to play. Every shot has exactly 50/50 probability by mathematical calculation. I hope you understand it better now. Thanks for playing!
You nailed the theme, aesthetics and sound! I like the limited color palette and how everything is moving. Hovering over a card feels good.
I love how this game looks, the art style is one of the best i've seen so far in the jam!
