Niavlys ! Great game just like I said before, I love how the movement feels.
Haha! This is surprisingly very fun! It's only a sphere and some dots on a screen and still...I can't stop playing! (can't beat level 7 though...)
Those mechanics are really funny, I can't even understand how it works ^^
Fun toy! I could feel my laptop getting warmer and warmer as the game progressed :P
Nice!
The louder sounds work great.
I love the weird gameplay. My favorite combo is to start by moving the mouse slowly to have a great control, and as the time is running out I increase the speed of the cursor, trying to control that thing :)
@supermaximo93 : Yes, I guess it needs to be optimized… Glad you had fun with it!
@Agamgad : Thanks, I'm happy I started over with this idea, I was totally disliking the previous one.
@Pierrec : Thanks! The mechanics are conceptually very simple, but very hard to master, it seems! :)
@nitramgc : Glad you liked the audio and gameplay. I hope I won't get too many bad ratings in Audio because it can't be heard in Firefox (or other browsers)...
Thanks for your playing tips!
Interesting concept.
I got to phase 9 by just swinging mouse around at random, then (after 10-12 tries) I wasn't able to get past phase 9.
Probably it was because I didn't understand how the ball movement actually worked.
I'm a sucker for anything with spring mechanics!
I got up to 233! Then my laptop started stuttering :)
@Muu? (lanoiadimuu) : The mechanics were pretty simple to program. In fact, it's the first thing I came up with, I wanted to change it and actually couldn't make anything better, so it became the difficulty of the game: mastering the controls. The nervosity of the ball movement can also add to its "vilainous" aspect.
@mrspeaker : It's meant to be incontrollable! If it were too easy you would get to level 20 without any effort and your computer would crash.
A rather different idea!
Addictive and simple, once I got the hang of it I came back for more. Well done :)
Weird, but fun :)
It's a little hard to master the ball movements, but still fun.
Btw, I temporarily voted n/a for audio, 'cause I can't play with sound on atm. But I'll definitely play again tonight and re-vote ;)
Nice flinging-mechanic!
This is a real angry red ball. Nice game!
@LTyrosine: I'm glad you found the theme in my game. Thanks! :)
"Four lives and a fucking flamethrower."
Fantastic.
Oops, that comment was meant for a different game.. Move along, nothing to see here...
Now for the real comment..
Neat little physics toy here, hard to see a game in it yet, but it just needs some goals or scoring added.
Made it to the level 7 :)
The controls are weird, I couldn't really get the hang of them and I think the game is too simple.
Nicely done, challenging and rewarding experience. :) Love the mechanics.
