took me a while to get to grips with the controls, but it was a lot of fun once i figured it out! i love the chaotic fun of slinging around pieces of gum, it's a really creative and unique take on the theme

Developer

Thank you supermike. Love to read that!

I liked it, but I'm so bad at it haha, spend a lot of time to get a few coins. Controls are okay once you get them, but getting the correct timing and understanding how the gum will move when released was very hard.

The Visuals and effects were nice, matched well to the game!

I had a very bad skill issue in this game, so I barely got past the first level but I still think it's good even though that was just the first level, I think it's the camera mostly that can help and lead but I just went all over the place

Developer

Yeah the camera is a problem I should fix. Thank you for playing!

okay, this was really hard at the beginning and I'd say the first room doesn't really help you get the hang of the mechanics, but once you figure them out... it's REALLY fun. It reminds me a lot of “I Am Bread” and similar games. The camera isn't always perfect. Sometimes it gets in the way or gets stuck, but in a game like this, with so many angles and such free caothic movement, it's really hard to make a better camera.

I find the game very fun and challenging. I like the checkpoint design. The only downside I see is that the first room doesn’t do justice to how good the game gets later on, and it might cause someone to miss out on it if they don’t have the patience to get past it and fully understand the movement.

I agree with every single word in this comment.
And, yeah, I've never played "I Am Bread" but I really thought it may be a similar concept.

Thank you, i'll try to improve, and i'm glad you liked it!

Dang I wish I had the skills to figure out this game lol. It was fun but I found myself hitting a ceiling (or rather the floor) really fast. I was never able to get more than one coin and get out of the storage room. I never figured out what V or the clock in the bottom left was for. I thought maybe the clock was the direction you were spinning, but then I didn't know why that would be a clock, so I thought it was something else... I did stay playing for a while, determined to figure it out, which is a good sign it was fun even though difficult!

Developer(+1)

Yeah, it was the direction you were spinning. I thought it would be funny because of the "clock-wise" rotation, you know?

It is pretty difficult hahaha, but im so glad you liked it! I'll try to make the clock thing more easy to understand next time hahaha.

Oh my gosh I was cracking up when playing this game! I love how you can grab onto things and swing and change direction. Basically, the entire gameplay 🤣 Would recommend 

Developer

Thank you!!!!

If this is a rage game, you genuinely nailed it, and I have nothing bad to say. 

Otherwise, I feel like a proper tutorial would be really helpful, since I spent the first few minutes stuck on the floor. THAT BEING SAID, I was laughing during this a lot, and I definitely had a lot of fun with it. My #1 complaint is the camera. I felt like I couldn't see where I wanted to and where I could go to because of the fixed position. Being able to orbit the camera around the player would make this way more enjoyable. Overall, good job on this! Looking forward to the next one :)

Developer(+1)

Woah, thank you. Yeah, I didn't know it when I first started making this game, but it's definitely a rage game hahah.
I really appreciate your comments, I will take them "very seriously"... I'll try your game also...

skill issue from my part ngl.

I loved the ideia and the art style. Really unique and fun, but a little bit hard. I spent a little more time stuck behind the shelf that i willing to admit, haha. 

Still, very interesting and has a lot of potential, very well done.

Developer

Thank you! I really enjoyed reading your comment hahaha.
Also, you can always press "L" if you're stuck!

pretty fun to be honest just hurt my ears when I opened it.

A pretty unique game! Love the idea, even though it feels tough to play (at least for me). Most of the UI and things are pretty clear, except for some of the controls maybe. (W and S feels like they barely do anything.)
