Really fun game! I couldn't get mouse to work on the web or windows version, so I just used a controller. I've never played a katamari game before, so this was a fun introduction! Great work with this game, I really enjoyed it!
This has such a colorful presentation, and the music is fantastic (I would honestly listen to it outside of the game).
I did run into some issues, though. I couldn't get the aiming or the ball mechanics to work at all (I'm using mouse and keyboard), and I was expecting the ball to roll up props Katamari-style which I couldn't manage to do that. I noticed on your page that you ran out of time for a lot of tweaks and features for the jam submission.
I'll be checking back post-jam to see the updates. I really hope you get to finish your vision. Nonetheless, great job!
Yeah the main “starting” props are actually towards the left side,, which means that if you can’t aim (due to the mouse implementation being broken af + not having an alternative, such as a gamepad) you can’t really find the right things to start off with! It’s a bit of an unfortunate coincidence/circumstance really…
(P.S. I’ll poke Mort to publicize the music in a way)
interesting idea, my ball didnt really feel sticky like in the katamari games, but the idea is there. some polish and i think this could be pretty fun, good work! :)
A fresh and original game with a lot of charm. The controls take a little time to get used to, but once they click, it's a really fun experience!!
Very nice Katamari like, the sound and graphics are nailed tone wise.
The mouse controls were buggy for me on web version, but controller worked.
Also music is fire, anyway to get it somewhere?
graphics are super cool but I couldn't figure out how to play it on line It did work after spaming the buttons.
There's something really interesting here! I'd love to see more with polished controls
I love this, controls were a bit tough but overall the art and music is great !!
Very creative and unique game!!! A little hard to figure out controll at first, but after it becomes very enjoyable!! Well done!
played until the ball was too big for the pitcher to handle lol. really nice game!
Love the concept of Katamari and baseball. Was a cute experience and really enjoyed amassing such a large bento ball. Mouse controls seemed a bit buggy, but controller worked ok. Good entry!
Fun game! I'm glad I had a controller handy so that I could play it, 'cause mouse didn't work at all, even on the desktop version.
I’m glad you enjoyed it and thank you so much for sticking through with it!! (Especially how scuffed the mouse input ended up being!)
It was a bit difficult to understand at first. But cool stuff
Played this for so long, ball got so big
I didn't understand all things but it was very fun ! Like the Katamari thing haha.
Played on the stream today. It was really hard to figure out the controls. Loved the "The Stunts" 90s look but fresh. I have to try this retro-new painterly style of character's with 3D.
the music is so so so fire but i had to give it 5 minutes before i gave up; i wasn't able to stick to anything and it wouldn't let me aim to hit the ball in any other direction. cute art tho!!
The art's great but I couldn't seem to stick to anything, only the broccoli looking stuff. Also would be good to be able to add direction to the swing.
