The idea for the board game (reverse tug-of-war?) was really original, I liked it!

One thing that I would improve, is that the first screen of the game has too much text - you can probably get rid of most of it, or present in a more appealing manner.

Thanks for the game!

For how ridiculous as the AI is, it does a lot to give the game a very frantic feel. I enjoyed it.

I enjoyed the storyline setup, and the game itself is simple but fun.

Great idea. Turtles a bit too fast.

Great Idea! Very original, I like it ;)
Little challenging and fun :)

This is a fun kind of crazy. I feel like if the controls weren't quite so binary it might be more interesting. Nice work though.

:D This was some really good arcade frenzy ! I clicked on your game thumbnail because I was thinking I will play some kind of strategy game. And I was also thinking it after I read the game explanations. This was basic but fun as hell. Well done !

Very simple and original, I liked it. Though it was annoying I could push huge metal balls but not small turtles.

Quick and fun, though getting stopped by a turtle walking in your way was irritating. Either way it's a good job for something made in less than 24 hours!

Quite simple, and quite fun.

Fun game, well done. (And finally! someone has chronicled the terrible battle between men and turtles! ;)) great work - especially for under 24 hours!

Nice game. Controls are difficult sometimes and could be balanced with a little more time perhaps.
Well done anyway!
