really fun game, good physics. A highscore would have been great

Fun game, the controls were a bit wonky but very enjoyable nonetheless! Great job! :)

Great take on skeeball and other skill shot games. The physics were satisfying, but I felt that sometimes I didn't have enough space to launch the ball properly.

Simple and nice :)

customphase 2013-08-26 10:50

That was pretty entertaining :) I wish you could reset the ball, so it wont take so long time for him to come back

It's a nice little game. I particularly like the graphics, and the music is quite catchy too.

Fun game. :)

One thing though: my score disappears when I reach more than 9 points. ^^ Guess it's a font issue ... I'm on Linux and my score number looks like some fallback standard font.

Oh and the background music seems to be played twice simultaneously when you play a second round w/o reloading the page.

I really liked the game. Nice physics and graphics!

Very nice game. I scored 10 points on my first try, but after that it went downhill lol. I really enjoyed it. A high score would have been awesome.

Very good game!

nice game :) physics are great, graphics too.
Nice job !

This is fun. Nice work!

I like how the game started with a traditional basketball hoop setup that one would expect, then evolved into wackier and wackier arrangements. Very clean art, nice job!

Greatly done, man. The graphics are really high-quality. +getting those physics must have been a real challenge :)

jhelle 2013-08-26 18:40

Thanks for all the kind words and feedback guys!

@sirtetris actually missed that one, thanks for the heads up

@comrad_gremlin that was actually pretty easy to setup in construct, without that I wouldn't have been able to make it in a weekend :)

A nice addition to physics puzzles!

I played this on Android, and like you said, it was pretty slow. I actually liked it once I got the hang of it, and could see playing a version of this after the jam. Nice work.

interesting game, though in one level I apparently through the ball hard enough for it to disappear, then on the later stages there were lots of areas where the ball would easily just get stuck and I had to just wait a while for the countdown to finish. It's an interesting take on a mini golf sort of game.

for a compo it's really impressive. It felt like box2d almost. great work with the physics.

I'd get sfxr/audacity and get some sound involved. a little noise can go a long way for the experience.

nice work and a real creative concept. I like it a lot.

uwap 2013-09-01 12:16

Final score: 7. Sometimes the ball just disappeared when moving the mouse too fast. But it's a nice and simple game anyways.

Fun way to make use of basket ball. Like these simplistic but entertaining games!

mrblade 2013-09-16 01:27

Nice work! It is a bit difficult to get the ball in the basket, but it is reasonable level of difficulty. Okay sounds, nice graphics. I feel like the ball falls A BIT slow, making it hard to get off more than one or two shots on most of the levels. Keep it up. 6/10.
