Nice. I even got in to space ;) Cool idea

Nice. I even got in to space ;) Cool idea
Took awhile to get used to the controls, but eventually got the hang of it. Nice idea :)
Had fun playing, nice controls and bouncy things! I couldn't feel the relation with the theme thought..
Interesting concept, quite hard though.
Nice game. A little hard to play, but I'll get better.
I really like physics based games.
Cool little monkey ball like game.
nice physics and just the right music at the time the only think that i miss is some background music
Nice but the objective could be explained little better.
It is a bit obtuse, I concede. I personally think it's fun when a game is a *little* baffling, but I know a lot of people would disagree!
This was AWESOME! I could just roll around forever. I mean I was terrible at getting the balls in the holes but still I loved it. Great work!
This is actually a really fun little physics game, but as a few other people ahve said, the objective could definitely be made a lot clearer, well done. :D
Cool. Need a power meter or some kind of force feedback. GG
I think that the goal is pretty clear. I think that the theme is a little bit too far but after 5s the game became the best pool game i ever played!
Actually the execution is pretty simple, and maybe the game could be less "pool-looked", but after that the game feel is excellent, and you drive your ball with feeling.
Could had some GUI for information but even like that the game is fun.
IDEA : add other situation like golf to change from the same set.
very interesting concept end very fun to play, could have maybe some powerups or special balls ? needs some good music..
Well that was an interesting concept and definitely a fun game. I found that it was weird that after the others descend they come back up and I have to redo all my hard work again.
The sounds were OK but I felt it needed music. All in all, it was a really fun game and a job well done :)
Stuff comes back up because it's still active on the other side! It can be frustrating, admittedly.
Originally the idea was to have the holes branch to different specific colour-coded fields, each ball having a particular destination you need to get it to (and then it'd stay there); but I ran out of time before I could get around to doing all the interesting (ish) obstacles and stuff I was hoping to put in. So instead it just makes one new barely-different field each time you've potted all the balls and followed them across.
This is fun! Love it. Simple and efficient :)
Ah, playing pool but as the cue ball. Interesting. Could definitely use a power meter bar instead of having the screen shake so much.
very sleek! the big grey ball really freaked me out the first time it launched at me :P
Physics are great! Controls are challenging to play with.
Hard to control for me :(
Cool idea, very addictive! I'm still not sure if there is a way to win?
I agree that a power meter/UI would have helped, but without one this was still a lot of fun. Could probably translate to touch controls pretty easily. Hope you continue development.
There isn't a proper win state as of now, no. For now you can consider yourself to have "won"-ish once you've received and potted all eight coloured balls; I might continue messing with this and going in the kind of better-structured (but more time-consuming) direction I was thinking of before, we'll see.
At first I thought "where is the theme?" But now I get it. Nice game.
what a great idea.. kinda hard but very fun
This was surprisingly fun.
Fun concept and nice physics :)
Would be cool to see more done with the idea, maybe balls with different behaviors?
Yeah, see above - I had more complicated plans, but ended up going with this very simple (and nevertheless sort of buggy) version because I was running out of time. Something to possibly get back to later.
Fun idea, I liked it.
i'm not really sure why i like this as much as i do, but it was really fun.
Man... I had no idea what to do in this, possibly due to my lack of experience with pool in general. It wasn't just a "little" baffling, I had no idea what was going on ._. I think that if the controls had been a little bit more sensitive or I'd had a UI to fool with, more feedback, I might've had more fun. Really liked the zooming SFX on the 8-balls, that was actually pretty damn funny and almost made getting wrecked by them forgivable ;]
Seems like a neat concept, though. Thank you for the game!
