I like the game play and how the thame gets used! But if i play fullscreen the UI is to small.

Cool game but it had a gap between floor and a wall

personally i enjoyed the game! I didn't understand quick enough about Sisyphus cans waht they were meant to be obstacles but it's okay i got it after 2nd attempt. I enjoyed playing bowling in this game. It was easy, and interesting. But not much content, though it's understandable with the time we were given, i will say that's a very good game for that. good job!

Cute game! Didn't expect the cans to be so heavy lol. Wish we could change ball lanes after selecting the first time. Otherwise, a fun, quick game!

Interesting Game! I'm terrible at it but good job nonetheless!

I love bowling games, however this seemd a bit hard, as the controls were not easy to understand, some sort of help would be good to have, rest a good game

I really liked the music and the environment design. You can tell how much effort you put into the game. The gameplay itself is fun, and I liked how you have to choose your position in advance and play from there. A very original idea!

this was really fun! the ui makes it a bit difficult to use tho, maybe could be linked to some controls instead like e and r and using the mousewheel to make it easier to play. other than that it was fun!!

I love the gameplay, every strike spikes my serotonin levels. Kinda wish there was a sound when i get a full strike, but other than that its a banger / 5 for me.

Ahh that's a great point about the full strike! Your game was awesome btw!

I had a good time with this one :). I was absolutely trash on my first go-around, played through a few times and got most of the pins down throughout, but man those blue elephant pins are strong.

UI could be larger but I don't think it was hard to read or anything. Maybe this feature already is in and I just couldn't figure it out but after dropping a ball in a spot I couldn't move it. I placed the bowling ball in the wrong spot a few times and had to just send it lol.

Pretty fun game. I did feel like some levels could improvement though

Nice simple game, played a few rounds but couldn't score higher than 3000 overall (I'm a very bad bowler haha). Audio and SFX were nice and matched, the gameplay was easy to grasp and has a learning level.

I would second the UI Scaling, I played it in full screen and the controls in the lower right were somewhat small, nothing that stopped me from playing, but would be easier if they were bigger. The UI Images also had some certain pixelation probably due to the screen size, not sure if intended.

UI scaling something wrong (too small) 

game boring
