The ball-mechanics are fun. More of it! Jumping and evading isn't as good compared.

Thanks for playing! Some platforms could help to make the jumping more fun, a bit like Bomb Jack.

Fun game and nice gravity!
I'm guessing thats Leo Messi?
Too bad that Barcelona lost the champions league today :(

Nice clean graphics. Using the ball to get coins was fun!

Fun little game :)

It's a bit hard to hit the mobs with the ball; seems more a matter of luck than anything else. Also, I don't know if this is intentional, but sometimes I just suddenly stop moving to the side. Pretty fun idea overall, though! Super Mario Strikers has nothing on you. ;-)

Groovy little game. I liked the ball-weapon mechanic and the difficulty scales up nicely with the number of enemies on screen, time left, etc the ball becomes the more important tool.

I agree with Zener in that platforms and maybe barriers would extend the re-playability of the game post-dare.

Liking the ball mechanic and the non standard game play.

It's pretty cool that the ball goes all around the world :)

Curiós!! :)
I'd never expected to find a game about Leo Messi amongst this LD's entries, considering the theme.
The game is fun and simple, a great recipe for a time killer.
Congrats!

Fun game with an interesting weapon.

I liked the ball mechanics. Sucks that you die in one hit. Would love to this concept expanded.
