Pretty fun game albeit short, once I understood that the curve speed was relative to the ball's launch direction I enjoyed it enough to go for getting a hole in 1 on all of the levels. Seconding the other comment that the UI was really nicely polished. My main feedback besides the game's length is the gameplay visuals are a bit basic, but with the same level of polish that the UI has it could really pop.

Great game! 

As you said so yourself, the curving mechanism could be more clear. If you keep working on it (which would be cool since it is a very nice game!) you could try adding a 'reset spin' since it is difficult to find the zero. 

Last but least: Great UI, feels super polished, really nice!

 (i am always commenting on this i feel since i suck so much at UI, except for this jam, this time i just could not work on the game anymore and had to keep the temporary UI :)

Just noticed a slight bug btw. this seems to be curving the wrong way?

Developer

the curving is relative to where youre aiming the ball! shouldve made it more clear...

Cool game, with a fun mechanic! Kinda reminds me of pool crossed with mini golf!!

I feel like some more unique/harder levels would be cool and provide more of challenge, encouraging the player to lean more into the spin function. btw the screen change animation is pretty satisfying

I also think the theme of spinning could have been used more and I feel like more complex levels would defiantly enhance the game. I also notice that there is a small bug where on the 3rd level clicking next will restart the level instead of going to the final challenge. Pretty fun mechanics though

I think the game has some interesting level designs, but I think it could've done with some more sound and stronger use of the spinning theme.

Cool idea but the spinning aspect of the game was not that prominent, I was only able to play the first level for some reason but I feel like I could get through the level without even having to interact with the spin mechanic, maybe some levels where spinning around the corner was necessary? The settings menu was a bit bugged out (i could not go back to the main menu without closing the game and it had no audio) 

Developer

thx for the feedback! i was really rushed trying to complete this so this isnt my best work, but ill fix it up ty!
