Another catapult game! :P\r<br\/>This game is pretty fun. It's difficult, but it looks nice and it's rewarding when the cats congratulate you when you finish a level. What confuses me is that the clouds go over the map instead of staying in the background.

I retried holding the clicking and i started to see the boulder. I recommend that you sho the boulder at a small size to let the player understand eh had a boulder.\r<br\/>Also, i find it annoying i couldn't restart quickly the level instead of waiting the ball stopped to move. Like in the second level when ball keeps bouncing on that damn trampoline.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>At a moment, screen was keeping move in build stage and i couldn't stop it moving. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>In the build stage, it can be more convenient to use right click to make the platforms rotating counter-clockwise.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Last thing to balance is the weight\/power of the boulder, it is frustrating to be forced to use only tiny boulder everytime.\r<br\/>Qside thqtm i reqlly liked the gq;e."},{"author_name":"repstyle","author_uid":"11700","time":"Sep 4, 2016 @ 12:41pm","epoch":1472992560,"text":"Sorry for the sentence :\r<br\/>Qside thqtm i reqlly liked the gq;e.\r<br\/>It was because i changed language of my keyboard.\r<br\/>And i wanted to write : \r<br\/>Aside that, i really liked the game and i played a long time.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>If you had good polish, it can make a very good flash game (even if it is not trending anymore)."},{"author_name":"GFM","author_uid":"7375","time":"Sep 6, 2016 @ 12:30am","epoch":1473121500,"text":"The game loop takes too much time upon failure.
