The visuals are very distinctive and work together well. The sound design is absolutely incredible from the sounds of the board to the swooshes of obstacles and the satisfying thwap when you hit an object. Love the arcade feel of the near misses. Levels seems to increase in difficulty as you progress and the ramp up feels nice.
I really don't have any notes on this one, I think you all did a fantastic job!
The one problem I have with this game is that the controls were very confusing when I was at the ceiling. Suddenly my left arrow key went to the right and vice versa. This was especially confusing when I flipped sides with spacebar, which meant I rarely used this cool mechanic. Unfortunately I also dont really know a solution to this, since swapping the controls halfway is probably also weird :/
That being said, I really did like the gameplay! I had a lot of fun :D
the graphics are wild, very cool effect
Idk don't really have any criticisms. Solid game
It's a really polished and fun arcade title, very well made! Graphics are unusual and stylish!
I like the little bonk effect when you smash into a wall. :P
Great job! Very nice in every aspect.
