Great game and really solid tutorial overall! I struggled a bit with the red marker though, so adding a quick tip or a secondary tutorial specifically for markers would be super helpful. Great job!

Got it! Thanks for playing :D

Thanks for playing :D the selector can't go to the other sides but the objects can! Try exploding a bomb near another bomb, you'll see that the bomb moved just like the ball and in the end, it explodes too. As for level 4, it is beatable, just a little tricky. Try the top right corner, that's all I'm gonna say :D

That was really fun! There's some pretty clever puzzles, I could totally play more of this. Definitely needs a lot of polishing visually, but it's understandable. Good job!

It'd be great if you could check out my game a leave a rating! :D

Edit: I just saw you're on mobile, if that's the case you should press the skip button in the main menu as I don't think the start button will work properly. The game is technically playable with touch, but some parameters were not built for that so they might be somewhat off.

Thanks for playing :D already did!

A really cool game with just enough difficulty for someone empty brain like me. I didn't encounter most of the bugs mentioned so it was a really good experience for me. Hope you can make more levels for this game!

Developer

Will do :D thanks for playing!

Done good game dude

Developer

Yeah! Finally, a game solely based on kaboom! and boom!!! The difficulty wasn't high but took me 3 tries to understand the mechanics and complete the first round.

It's a fun game, though the music gets a bit annoying with its repetition, and—to be honest—the levels were really easy.
Developer

Aye Aye Captain! Thanks for playing :D Though being honest, if you look at other comments, they wouldn't agree. I tried to cater a wider audience with the difficulty. Otherwise they'll just not play.

Nice game, creative puzzles but I had trouble completing them. The marker kept getting stuck against the walls. Good stuff, well done!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing :D can you explain what exactly is the getting stuck bug. I'll like to fix that later.

It's probably me just getting it wrong but I couldn't seem to get the marker off the walls. I tried both types of bombs but the marker would just go to the edge and then you cannot get it off that wall to get it to the destination.

Developer(+1)

You place the bomb between the marker and the wall to never let it touch the wall in the first place :D the ball is stopped by the objects too.

Ah I see, my bad, I didn't think of that. That's smart game design

I couldn’t figure out how to play and the selector was skipping over blocks the tutorial wasn’t clear either but nice idea

Developer

Huh??? How did I not encounter any of those bugs. Are you sure it's correct? Try playing in chrome I guess. Cause I really don't see any. Thanks for playing I guess.

Really cool game! The puzzles were fun and I really liked the SFX. The only small thing I would improve is letting the selector go faster in a direction when you hold a key

Developer(+1)

I did try that but the engine kept giving a massive error for no reasons what so ever. So I just kept it like this. Sorry :'(. Thanks for playing though :D
