i got every star in the 6 levels and its was good thime

Hello Vaibhav

I tried your game and here are my thoughts.

How smooth does the movement of the ball and overall game physics feel?

The physics felt slightly odd with how high jumpy could jump. I realized that its in his name, but a little animation could go a long way to make him feel like he is generating his momentum and that its not coming from thin air. Apart from that platformer physics was fine, you could jump off ledges and stuff. Good stuff.

How is the music and sounds in the game?

Sounds are fine. Coin collecting sound was very satisfying. Jump sound was alright. Maybe different balls should have different jump and roll sounds? Music was good but very repetitive. It fit the theme very well, but you could spice it up by changing a few tracks

How can I improve the puzzles in the game to make it more fun and challenging?

Have more puzzles less parkour. I played 3 levels and I got stuck at that parkour thing in level 3. I know I have to double jump off the ledge but missing the jump is absurdly punishing. Almost gave me Getting over it ptsd which is something I was not expecting. That can be ok if that’s what you are going for. Anyway, based on the artstyle sounds and the switching balls mechanics I assumed there would be more puzzles that would utilize this. In the first three levels we have parkour which is of much higher level than you would expect for initial stages and practically no puzzles. We always know exactly what ball you have to switch into to clear some parkour thing.

Positives

• A very optimistic vibe. Nice art and music.
• Nice challenges throughout.

Other observations

• Water ball doesn’t swim in water but gets infinite jumps. I found that a bit odd.
• I would like more puzzles that would require the player to think about which ball to switch into to do something. You could be going for a more skill intensive game, and in that case ignore this advice.
• I noticed a weird bug in level 3 where the ravine at the start seems to have water, but using even the water balls ends in insta-death. (when the map zooms out you can see the blue.)
• W is not jump, don’t know why.
• Silver Spikes blend in with the bg too much. Maybe higher contrast?

Overall, I enjoyed playing the game! Good job!

Hey, this is an interesting platformer, all the animations and sounds all work together. Just a couple things I notice. There's too much text straight away after loading, I think if you want a story to give a reason for being the balls and platforming, it should be spread out through the game or make it really short. Just so the player can get straight to the fun bits. Not sure about having a menu to switch between balls, I think it would flow better if you just switch between the balls with the C button. Animation wise, have some stretching on the balls jumping could sell the ballness, and maybe have more of a size difference between the balls could sell their different abilities. Cool game.

This is a fun concept for a platformer, I'd be interested to see what you can do with this. I couldn't get past the second level, couldn't find splashy anywhere. Physics felt okay, maybe a little rigid, it's hard to describe but didn't feel super smooth. SFX are okay, the song was a little repetitive but not bad. I thought the puzzles were okay, I think the potential for puzzles with the multiple different characters could be great. Finally the spikes were hard to see, I kept running into them without even seeing them, they could use a little more visual clarity.
