How does your game represent "Slick"?
Slick isn’t just the surface of the the ice. It’s the idea that the best move is never touching the curling stone at all.

Very nice idea! it took me a while get learn to move fast enough to solve the puzzles. id love more complex, but maybe slower levels.

Slick ShineThe game is pretty fun and well made! The gameplay is also quite unique. My issues are mostly that sometimes the bumpers cause a lot of lag and that sometimes you want to setup more before the ball starts moving.

Slick HackingThis was a really cool and unique take on the theme! The web player got a bit laggy with the more complicated trajectories, but I had a really fun time!

Getting out of Handwhen i first switched to the other brooms and saw the trajectory change in real time i thought, "yeah, this is slick" the levels were clever and it definitely took some time to get the hang of it but i thuroughly enjoyed it!

Polar IcecapadeReally interesting idea, I can't say I've ever seen someone attempt a curline-like game but this was fun. It's a little rushed early on trying to get down the mechanics before having to restart, but once you figure it out it's interesting. FYI it got pretty laggy on longer paths, I'm assuming because you're recalculating the path every frame, when it only really needs to be recalculated on an update. Nice job with this!

Grease Man100% agree with Mr Speaker, Broom shakalaka is the best possible name for a game like this, having to decide the direction on how much you want to lessen the friction is awesome. Good game, super smooth in all senses of the world.

Street ShredderAs someone who has twice tried to make a curling game I feel I'm qualified to say... not only is this an incredible game, but "Broom Shakalaka" is hands-down the best video game name of all time. You must now make it your mission to track down the guy from NBA JAM to do the voice-over.

Nowhere WestCrazy how people are like "oh yeah let's make a curling game" and then it's actually good.
Really cool concept, good level of challenge. Short, sweet. Nicely done!

Shootin' yer ShotVery unique mechanic that incorporates the theme perfectly! I love the polish of the golf-clap and confetti celebration on level complete.

Adventurer Supply CoThis in an awesome idea that is executed really well. Great interpretation of the theme! :) I love how hexagons movement isn't a binary 'clockwise' and 'counter-clockwise', rather a whole gradient of movement options. Honestly I haven't seen anything like it. Good job, you cooked!
