Delayed Trickshot by LDJam user 219121

[raw]
made by LDJam user 219121 for Ludum Dare 50 (JAM)

Make a little contraption that gets the ball into the hoop - your goal is to make it last as long as possible, while still getting it in! (8 seconds minimum in order to complete a level) Level2.PNG

There are 6 levels, and after that, you can just mess around with the blocks.

Had an absolute blast playing this! At the start i could actually hear myself thinking "i wish the ball was more bouncy", and then you delivered immediately with the bounce pads. I would say this is stretching the theme a little bit, but that didn't make the game any less fun.

Enjoy my solution for level 4

This is really fun and well made. I beat the whole game without noticing that you can rotate blocks. My only complaint is that the zone affected by the fans is very unclear. It seems to include an arbitrary space above and behind them. This is one of the best jam games I've seen, though, nice job.

This is a GENIUS interpretation of the theme! Excellent work. Absolutely love how clean and polished it is

Great game, I spent way too long playing it. I like how there are many different ways to complete each puzzle. Good job!

Suuuuper smoothly put together. Wasn't sure on the theme at first but then it clicked - very clever! Reminds me of similar games from the past but with a new twist. Also the bouncy block's visuals are hypnotisingly nice haha

I think this is my favorite use of the theme - the delay mechanic really encourages you to play around and come up with silly solutions instead of just going directly to the goal, which was really fun! While playing I was thinking "oh a sandbox mode would be great", so it was nice to see you added one at the end too!

I did not immediately understand what to do, but after a couple of days I understood the whole essence of the game, and I liked it. No wonder I collected so much time playing it.

Hits all the right spots. I think this is my favourite entry so far. There's quite a lot of thought put into the design and user experience which I absolutely appreciate. The past trajectory really helped and more.

This is such an amazing puzzle game. The mechanics are really simple and intuitive (although somehow I missed that you could rotate blocks until lvl 3) and it is so satisfying when finally one of your weird "contraptions" works out. Really well done!

Awesome work! Besides the overall concept I really like the fine little "quality of life"-details, like the trail! Everything just feels great to fiddle around with. Great entry!

Love the puzzle game element. I enjoyed that it was done in 3d versus just using 2d sprites. I like how you connected the theme. Great job
