Concept is cool, the controls seemed inconcistent to me. Does the dash multiply movement? I would be jumping then immediatly dashing to get height, which didn't seem like the right way to use it. But the wall jumps were so hard to get, maybe because i really need to hit the wall and then get a precise timing? idk or did I need to press into wall? It seemed weird to me. Really like the wind sfx though and the squash and stretch on the ball

i liked how the ball rolled and interacted physically with the environment, but i found the wall jumps to be way too tricky for my part! i did discover some hidden tech where you can lunge yourself really far if you time the wall jump and the dash

Love the idea of the ball, it had good weight and physics, just couldn't get passed the wall jumps.

the game mechanics were unique but very difficult to execute. I only tested the browser version. Not sure if the game had audio.

As people already said, it was super hard to understand the walljump mechanic, I can't quite put my finger on what felt off. But I never had it consistent. Even after several minutes of gameplay. I still manage to get through level 1 and 2 but at what cost for my mental ahah.
Besides that, I kinda like the inertia the character has, especially with these intense fight I had with these TOO CLEVER gold balls damn. Very cool enemies, good job on that, i'm not sure how they felt so smart. :)

The bounce mechanic seems like it would be really fun if I could figure it out, but I tried for several minutes and couldn't get past the first wall :( 

(maybe this is just a skill issue haha)

Was hard but had fun

Nice one! Took me a while to understand that I should just be jump + dashing all the time but it felt pretty good after that. I thoroughly enjoyed the chaos of that one level.

It was hard to get used to the controls at first, but after a while, it got a bit easier. Very fun! I loved the last level!

Submitted

Very difficult. I had a hard time getting past the first jump, and barely managed to finish the first level. I'm not sure how the controls and the momentum are supposed to work. If the idea is you're a bouncy ball, that kind of appeals to me, but it doesn't really come across. The control you have feels weak and sluggish.
