Cool, but sometimes I go through the ball

coderdozer 2013-08-26 10:32

Thanks for trying it out, The only thing I can think of is the ball is bouncing at the time and the car is just slipping under it. Had it happen to myself a couple of times and can be a bit annoying just when I think I have a shot at goal.

haha, this game is slightly frustrating. It gets a bit easier when you get the hang of it, but even so, I lost like 80% of the time :P I really like the exaggerated camera effects when the other truck hits you.

I MADE A GOAL!! The car physics are ridiculous! :D This was actually very fun for the small amount of time I played it. Only addition I would make - I think it would be no problem to you to make people able to swith to 3D camera. I think that would make the game even more ridiculous. Nice job! :)

It's probably an issue on my machine, but the car moves really slow, which frustrates a lot. Probably making a little quicker will improve the game play?

It's really fun, catchy and hard, I like it!
There's no way someone can beat my best-score(2).

The game is quite fun, though the slipperiness took a while to get used to before i could score a goal.

The only issue i have with this is the screen-shake effect. It adds a nice feel to impacts when done correctly, but here it's way over the top in my opinion. :)

The premise is great though :D I can't help imagining a full scale game where two teams of monster trucks completely obliterate the grass field while playing football, meanwhile the drivers honk horns and yell at each other :D

Man, fuck that other guy. Also, driving underneath the ball was exquisitely frustrating.

Good start. I like the headlights.

Awesome! Very satisfying to make a goal. Loved the camera shake and the look of the lights. I love the fact that the other driver is an annoying douche just making things difficult.

Funny idea, gameplay and graphics! I've enjoyed it :) "Shaking screen" effect is great, with it this game become very alive. However, I think you can make some improvements to this game to increase the "fun" (Yeah, I think you need to concentrate on it). Firstly, I think 10 seconds is too small time to perform a goal. Secondly, ball is jumping too high. I can't push ball from the beginning of game, I can only touch it after ~4 seconds late. So player need to avoid "berserker" for 4 seconds and perform goal in 6 seconds (not in 10 because ball is jumping).
But I think this game have a great potential to be a great time killer game. Wish you luck :)

Really really tricky when the camera doesn't orient with your car! And I completely failed to score any goals. Would be nice if the camera tracks, and the cars were different colours!

keinbaum 2013-08-27 13:43

hmm the car is so slow i did not get to the ball in 10 seconds...

zerot 2013-08-27 13:46

The ball bouncing made it just impossible to score sometimes.

It is a nice idea, but is too difficult. It would be better if it was easier to score so you at least get a sense of accomplishment after 10 seconds(instead of constantly seeing score 0)

coderdozer 2013-08-27 14:45

Yeah, you are right, I probably should have built in a sliding scale of difficulty like the blockers speed, ball bounce and the pitches friction. Thanks for all the input.

nickw 2013-08-28 19:13

Great fun, if it a little difficult to hit the ball at times. Controls could use some tweaking too. Good work!

darien 2013-08-30 09:25

The physics are fun, but the car moves a bit too slowly for a ten-second time limit. It seems my time is half up before I've even touched the ball.

brejlounek 2013-08-31 16:24

VERY slippery :) That jerk scored more than me! :D

kibertoad 2013-09-01 22:33

Haha, that was fun, if very tough!

hbocao 2013-09-01 22:49

Fun to play! I hate the other car!

jupiter_hadley 2013-09-02 05:54

For some reason I couldnt move very fast. Other than that, cool game. I featured it in my Ludum Dare compilation series, if you'd like to take a look :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6xfnRK2Anw

coderdozer 2013-09-02 21:55

Thanks for featuring it, that is really weird why the player car is moving so slow, must be something to do with unity's physics. Ah fuck, physics updates are meant to be done in "FixedUpdate" and not "Update".

coderdozer 2013-09-02 22:35

Nope, much simpler than that, forgot to apply delta time to my forces -_-

andresh 2013-09-15 00:50

Liked the light effects. But was difficult to see when the ball was flying in the air.

xblinkedx 2013-09-15 18:29

Wow, that was hard... The physics were hilarious though haha.
