How does your game fit the theme?
It's a game of billiards, but some of the balls are bombs that explode after a brief countdown.

The "clacking" sfx was solid, nice work.
nice game. Love a little bit of Billiard
Managed to put all the Balls in
Fun game! Pool with exploding balls is such a creative idea! I could definitely see this idea being built out further with different types of balls, pockets, and ways to unlock them (and would absolutely download that game). For some points of feedback, it would have been nice to have some extra margin on the edges to pull back the stick when the cue ball is on the edges. Also, once all the bombs exploded, the game essentially turns into a normal game of pool. Maybe there could be some way of bringing bombs back? Or turning other balls into bombs? But this is a really solid concept and I had fun playing it! Nice work!
Cool mechanic and the explosions were super satisfying. Wish there was a few more sound effects but felt really polished. You kinda get stuck however if there are no other bombs.
I really liked having to unlock the pockets and the physics of the explosions and the visual effects of it were really smooth. It was hard to get the power I wanted for some shots as if your ball was close to the edge the power was capped by your mouse going off the screen
nice physics and fun concept! kind of wish it was a bit more on theme though
nice game add full screen
Love the bug reporting lol! Seriously though good effort considering you don't know billiards. I appreciated the extra pockets.
That's a really creative idea! Let's trade ratings if you have time!
Billiards + bombs is such a fun twist 😭 The chain reaction panic when you’re one shot away from disaster is real. Physics felt crisp too. “I do not know how billiards works” on the page is way too relatable haha.
I like the concept of billiard balls exploding to reveal the holes but definitely feel it needs to be more developed. The collision physics felt perfect however!
Also this made me laugh from the game page :D
Fun idea! I enjoyed it but I would have liked to see a few more added mechanics to keep it interesting and differentiate it further from regular billiards.
Solid implementation of billiards mechanics. SFX felt good. Nice job.
