For being made in just two hours it's pretty nice. But I would like to see your other strategy game finished. I enjoyed the prototype you uploaded.

Hempuli

Haha, You should totally tell about the jump button! ;D Quite fun, but indeed, requires more meat.

shockedfrog

Jump button very rarely chooses to work in the Windows version for some reason. The web one works quite well though. Got as far as 114, is there a max possible score/'end'?

Hah, well it was quite amusing, and certainly pretty great for a two hour trainwreck style thing. As so often with physics-y based things the simulation causes the gameplay to suffer significantly. It's just too hard to predict the causes+reactions to get all that much fun from it.

Wow, it's actually pretty fun for being made in two hours. But, a bit too frustrating.

Like it's namesake the trainwreck, you can't look away. Oddly compelling for a two hour game, but, I'd still like to see the entry you had been planning to do, fleshed out.

I really enjoyed that, great job.
And only 2 hours?!

well for 2 hours its definitely something, and is interesting in some ways but I couldnt find a place where I enjoyed playing it I'm afraid ^_^;

Obviously a great game for only 2 hours. Very impressive, good idea and mechanic, even with music (despite being repetitive).

Hoping to see a stronger entry next time.

I think that with some more control and difficulty tweaking this trainwreck would be a really good game.

I tried your last RTS build too. It looked good. I know what you mean about getting paralysed because you want to do something with the game but you know it can't be finished in time.

Cool but... Yearrrgh! The spacebar often fails to jump for me! Other than that I like it. Might be more fun if the ball was bouncier/lighter/faster...

Endurion

Really good for two hours.
The controls are rough (Web), you basically have to jump yourself to speed when starting out. The ball speeds up too slow. If you just roll you sink.

Entar

Friggin hard, but neat idea. Could use some polish, but good. Nice music :)

demonpants

Pretty fun little diversion - good work for two hours. I enjoyed it.

dertom

I like it very much! And even it was that simple it was very challanging. Ok the music is still killing my brain, but the game was excellent. Nevertheless I didn't get more than 60 points... Maybe later :D

Pretty fun. I would have liked it even if it was done in 48 hours.

2 HOURS?!
