I'll start with the technical side, so to speak. I really liked the mechanics, the environment, and the music — it fit the atmosphere of the game perfectly.

But emotionally... I also went "Arrrghhh..." when I saw that I had lost all my fingers. I honestly don't even know how I'm still able to write this comment. 😂

A really well-made game, and the theme was absolutely "insane" in the best possible way. I'll stop writing now so I can save the rest of my fingers for the next replay. 😄

Amazing game! Everything about it is so great. There were some optimisation work that it needs. And I did not really like the body horror, I know CloverPit did it, but I think you could have taken this into a different direction. But that is a creative call you as a dev choose to make, I did not take any points off for that.

Thank you for the kind words! 100% there are optimizations to be made haha
Yes, this game was inspired by CloverPit so I wanted to dip my toes into something a little darker, appreciate it!!

has potential but it was pretty laggy for me and the upgrade shop was confusing

Developer

Good points! I definitely need to work on my optimization and the shop explanations haha

A one-button, physics-driven arcade roguelite.

Drop a rack of magical balls into a rotating carousel of tubes. Time your button presses, climb crazy multipliers and effects, beat the round target, and collect your tickets!

Spend those tickets at the Prize Counter on repeatable specialty balls and stackable passive toys. Clear three acts — two regular rounds and one boss per act. Each boss adds another twist to the game.

If you lose, the machine may look for a price only your hand can pay.
