Solid basis for a full game!  The art is zesty and I happen to enjoy playing stuff like  Elf  Bowling

Some nice-to-have QOL features:

  • a button to restart the level (instantly)
  • a way to force load the next bowling ball
  • multi-use abilities
  • a level select / level editor (probably only if u commit to making this a full release)
Developer

Thanks for playing, totally agree with all of these! but as is the life of a game jam had to get something working before release ahah! Thanks again!

Pretty fun game! The abilities being one use felt a little limiting sometimes as you feel out a level, but still overall enjoyable! Love the art style, and the neat abilities and no stakes just make it fun!

I love it! Very simple, fun and clear objectives. The physics are satisfying. The opening dialogue was something else!

I love the graphics, really reminds me of old bowling alley animations that would pop on the screen. huge nostaglia hit for me. good job!!

Cool idea, it's like golf with your friends but with bowling mechanic.

Improvements: Make the floor texture/Color different from the sides where the ball falls, its kinda hard to see.

This is a really clever game! I really love the concept of mixing a little golf and bowling lol.

Had fun playing this one! I also agree that upgrades would have been great for this. Exploding just became repetitive when hitting the pins. Great game!

I am so bad at this game! It was fun to play through though. I did have a handful of times where the ball would stall and I would have to reset which doesn't feel great having to reset the ball. But overall a great fun game!

I am in love with how nostalgic the whole game looks and feels! The gameplay is very creative (platforming + bowling) I did run into a bug however in the third level where the ball would just infinitely roll slowly without anything happening... amazing work though!! Really fun 

Developer

Shame! Glad you enjoyed it still

Got increasingly more creative, well done!

Developer

Nice artstyle, it really all fits together in a pleasing way.
Just as I was thinking "why does the arrow go so far left and right" 
Next level I could choose which way to go!
Cool Game
Good luck in the Jam!

Great look and some really neat full screen effects ! Had a lot of fun, the potential is really there wish there was even more levels and more variety ! Amazing job

Developer

Thanks means a lot!

Really fun game ! I encountered a bug with the pause option, which persisted after I reset the level. Overall a good experience though, good job !

Submitted(+1)

Awesome art style ,though I enjoyed the gameplay even more!

Submitted(+1)

Loved the artstyle, got a couple of bugs during my playthrough but it was still pretty enjoyable! 

Developer

Ahh that sucks! what were the bugs if you remember? 

Submitted(+1)

ok, one was i jumped on the second level and bonked the ball into the plank leavbing me kind of stationary and it dindt reset, i might be missing a reset button.
And another one was me frezzing time at a weird moment towards the end of a throw and it restarted but with the freeze still active, and the ball just lauched with the arrow attached to it lol.

pretty obscure stuff,  nothing obvious or trully game breaking! 

Really good job regardless!

Enjoyed it way more than i thought i would, quite fun, i think it would shine even more as a mobile game.

Developer

Thanks!! Yeah this form of the game would work quite well like that im sure!

I really like the style

Developer

Appreciate it, thanks!

The ramp up in challenges is very interesting. and the art style is pretty nice

Developer

Thanks, wish I had more time to think about the level design and flow of the levels, but had to get it submitted early as no more free time this week!
