This game was so fun to play! You did a great job.

Who made the music? One of the standout tracks from this jam, for me - so good! (Game is great, too!)

Would be nice to have a little icon to show when the curve is active, bc it kept not activating for me. 
Besides that nice game, visuals and music match well and overall good game!

I love this game! Graphics were really nice and I really like how i had to remember where the hidden objects were b/c I couldn't revel them and aim the ball at the same time. The curve-ball and jump were nice additions to keep it feeling fresh as the levels went on. 

The only control related complaints I had (and maybe I was missing something on this, so these could just be my mistakes) were 1) I wish I could cancel my shot once I clicked on the ball and 2) It was sometimes hard to get max power on the ball when I got stuck in the corner. Neither of these were a huge deal though to be clear. More qol stuff than anything. 

Really enjoyed this game! Great job!

Man, this one was tricky! It was really fun, though, especially when the curve was unlocked. It was very smart to add the shift feature because some levels were a little too tricky.

it looks and sounds great, the gameplay is fun, but the “seeing” mechanic feels kinda tacked on if that makes sense? the main game is “score in as few hits as possible”, and the “reveal hidden objects” feels like an unnecessary layer on top of that, I think the game would be just as fun without it. I still really enjoyed it though, the curved shots were a nice addition :-)

Thanks !

The game is to big to play on my display resolution, sad the game seems cool.

Developer

Sorry about that... I was worried the resolution would cause issue.

Maybe try zooming out in the browser (ctrl and - for windows; command and - for mac). I think that might be a potential fix.

I loove the assets on this game and that curve ball is really polished. Nice :)

Thank you! I was initially going to go with a fully 2D style using only sprites but I thought more of a 2.5D with a pixelated filter would be better. I'm glad you like the style! the curve ball also took a decent chunk of my time so thank you for the reassurance :')
