Hello again. i believe i know how to fix the fling when playing on different refresh rates. I played the game on 240hz and it flings and rotates very fast. When i switched to 60hz however, it ran smoothly. I think you need to use deltaTime for this kind of problem
bro I already fixed that on the updated version here
very interesting puzzle game. As already mentioned, the physics is a little weird to play with and theres a bug where the ball would phase out the wall. I had this phasing out bug in my game too so idk how to fix it
I really liked the art and the music of the game so big thumbs up for you. Great game!
Fun puzzle game. The sprite of the ball looks to be lagging behind its collider when rotating the puzzle? But the physics still work predictable so it is enjoyable.
Fun little puzzle game!
The physics felt surprisingly responsive and consistent for the most part*, which I know can be a challenge in physics based puzzle games, so great work with that!
*The first obstacle in level 5 felt a bit luck dependent, but everything else worked great.
thank you for playing
Cute puzzles! Very juicy and polished. Good work!
Thank you for playing
Fun puzzle game! It felt like sometimes though there was unnecessary items added purely to make it seem more complicated that I completely skipped possibly on accident. Nice fun little game though, well done!
thank you for playing
Fun little puzzle game, i like the polish and juice you have got, really even the way everything ran was satisfying, ofc i wanted more levels and some more features but for a jam this is more than good, cheers!
Nice puzzle game. I liked the premise and feel it's got a good foundation to build on. The inclusion of the red balls were a smart idea!
Just need to fix some of the collision detection at the start of Level 3 and 5(not sure what happened but seems ok now). But it's good work still.what happened at the start of level three and five
At the start of both these levels, the player ball just dropped out of the box somehow. I'm not sure if it's the speed of the spin that cause it not to detect the collision?
* well i tried it again, it seems ok now
thank you for playing
BALLS
Cute simple game
thank you for playing
Great game! when reading the other comments I was confused I had no problems with the game at all and I thought it was great! for maybe future level ideas add two balls or more that you have to get to the end or maybe a yellow ball that destroys the red balls and you use it to clear a path!
the bug happens if you have a high frame rate like 120 or 240 fps so that's why it didn't effect you. also I had the idea to make it so two balls need to reach the end but I couldn't make it in time ): the yellow ball sounds like a really good idea though.
Maybe you he frame rate somehow? idk I know little about game dev.
I already fixed the bug but I can't change the jam version
ahhhh. oh no :(
This has neat artwork and the audio ties in well. Unfortunately I couldn't play the first level as the ball always falls out of the maze.
there is an updated version here which doesn't have the bug
Nice one!
thank you for playing the updated version
The almighty wheel selected your game to be showcased in my latest YouTube video! Hope you enjoy.
Thanks for making the game! You should definitely add some more levels once the bugs are sorted!
thanks to your video I found out what caused the bug the updated version is here hope you enjoy
Really liked the intersting dynamic of this reminded me of childhood toys got in christmas crackers. I couldent do levels 4 and 5 (maybe there was something i was missing?) Good entry!
The art is great but the ball is clipping through each time I turn on the left
thank you so much for playing
The art is very clean! I did have issues with the clipping ball like some others have been saying, but overall very nice
Thank you for playing
I had a really nice time with this game, it brought my memory back to those toys heheh! I thought the progression from level to level was very well-designed too, and the red enemies spiced things up very nicely!
I suppose my main "critique" is that the game left me wanting more hahahah, but that's just a good sign - great job!!
Thank you for playing
Great game! Really enjoyed! Some clipping issues stopped me from completing level 5. Nice stuff!
thank you for playing
This game reminded me of the old games I used to play when I was younger, and it brought back some great memories. 😊 The game was really fun, but my favorite part was the rotating map, it was a really unique mechanic that made the gameplay stand out.
One thing I noticed, though, was that the physics collisions seemed a bit inconsistent, as the ball sometimes passed through the walls. Other than that, I really enjoyed the game. Great job!
I remember these type of toys... Thank you for reminding me about their existance. Also good game! It's a shame theres only 5 levels
Thank you for playing
Sooo fun! I know there were only five levels, but this was a darling experience and I'm so glad to have come across it. The collision physics are a little strange--but honestly, that added to the fun for me. Reminds me of those little maze toys they would give out as cheap prizes or that one wooden board game with the holes and the marbles that you needed to guide through them.
Very fun. :D
it was based off of those cheep maze toys lol
