Fun game! Unfortunately the physics are pain but its challenging and fun!
Thanks! :).
the movement is very clean, also very nice sound design
Happy to hear! Thank you! :).
Love how the camera is being used, such a great game!
Thank you! :).
The idea is really unique and i enjoy how the game sounds, it has a lot of potential to be built upon.
Happy to hear! Thanks! :)
Very original submission!!! I liked that the curling ball itself was also a countdown and that you had to be strategic with how you used it. nice job
That is very kind! Thank you! :).
cool soundeffects, gameplay was alright.
Thank you! :)
Nice! I finished with 11 seconds left. Love me some Pico-8 fun. Nice job!
Awsome! Thank you! :)
im pretty satisfied with the gameplay. Cool concept!
Thank you very much! :)
we are big fans of pico-8 games great job and a cool idea!
Thank you! :) very kind!
Done with 15 durability left ! Really nice little game, only complaint is the stone hitbox should may be a little smallest since to go though 1 space crawl if you don't place pixel perfect you can bounce to hell ...erm between walls (I lost ~30 durability to the second to last level because of this)
Thank you for good feedback! I agree with the hitbox problem. Really appreciate it! :)
Cool idea, but the movement feels a bit lackluster, but REALLY COOL!
Thanks! :)
Fun idea! Besides the polishing already mentioned by the other, having more levels - each with its quirks - would be interesting too. The artwork and sounds were pretty solid too!
Very kind! Thank you for your feedback :).
cute little game
Thank you! :)
It's quite short but still enjoyable! Some parts that felt like could use more polish is the durability, if you move up against a wall it will still decrease your durability, which doesn't make sense since you are not moving. It could be improved by accounting for speed in the durability I think. But still a fun concept!
Thanks for helpful feedback! :) appreciate it! I definitely agree with the walls. Happy you liked the game!
Short, but fun! I managed to complete it on my first try, though only just. The physics worked well for the most part, but the single-tile gaps could be a bit frustrating to fit through with how quickly you move up and down, and once or twice I accidentally got stuck vibrating against a wall for a second. Those are small issues, though; otherwise this felt quite polished :)
Really appreciate your feedback! :). Yes, the controls should be tuned a bit haha. Glad you enjoyed it!
Love the old school vibe, and the funny super speed you have. Small scope, weel executed, good job ! It was a bit frustrating on keyboard as sometimes the path feels stuck between two inputs :D But It kinda looked like a rage game a bit so I didn't mind. :)
Thanks for the kind words :). Yeah, had another idea first, but kind of went for a different approach during the process haha. Happy you enjoyed it!
I like the ball bouncing; it's very satisfying.
