This is great. I clearly made the right choice when I chose to play this instead of study for my final tomorrow :).

This is great. I clearly made the right choice when I chose to play this instead of study for my final tomorrow :).
What a great game. very fun to play. cute graphics nice music. Well done. Thank you for that game.
wowowow, spotco, this is amazing!
Not bad. But cant find connection with theme. Seriously.
Anyway game has interesting game mechanic. Like the hybrid of RPG(?) and pinball.
@SaintHeiser the idea was to have the "one screen" the world map in a rpg. a little abstract, but still happy you liked it :)
I loved the pinball/rpg mechanics on this one, had a lot of fun playing it :D.
That was excellent. One of the best games I've played so far. Extremely clever genre mashup and I love both genres. I didn't see any indication of how many balls I had left, that would have been nice. Otherwise, very solid. Great Work.
I might have missed something, but how do you pass the second village? When I get that 1st fork on the road, my "throws" are not strong enough to pinball around and reach the other side.
Also, when a hero gets stuck between trees, it currently dies. Consider changing that mechanic to just making it come back to the village you were in.
The game seems fun, but I can't get pass the beginning, so I will not rate it for now.
Pinball RPG! Sounds grteat!
I like this entry!
Wow! Very good effort here! Music, sound, graphics, all great! The tilt mechanic could use a bit of polish but overall a great experience. I could see this being on the appstore. Great work!
The concept of a pinball RPG is really cool. The tilt mechanic is perhaps not clear enough but I had a good time.
Died in the second screen after the gate, it's pretty hard to go up with the mountains and the bumpers. Good job anyway !
It is the funniest game i played so far !!!
I play game twice to the end !
Great music too !
TiagoJDFerreira: you need to tilt (there's some text telling you to press arrow keys or wasd)
Wonderful much wow such brave ahaha! I love this game! Very well made :) Great entry
Wooow such wooow !!!
Really good idea of gameplay RPG/Pinball well realise !
Good work !
Great ping pong RPG! I love it!
Holy cow what a good game.
It doesn't fit the theme, but excellent marks in all other categories.
The Kirby-like music brought tears of nostalgia t my eyes :')
I've played it through. It's got a super innovative game mechanics! You can feel many things are happening if you are familiar with RPG games. Though sometimes it becomes kind of hard to keep track of everything.
The game is very polished, too. The audio is good. But the most impressive of all is the unique game mechanics.
Very cute, polished, and a unique concept! I have no idea how to work the "tilt" though. :(
Great game! Unique, innovative with nice graphics and cute sounds! Not sure exactly how this fits in with the theme, but it's extremely polished either way! Well done!
What a brilliant idea! So much fun, and really well executed. Excellent art, music, the whole shebang's quite dandy! Only criticism I have is that I wish the camera were a little smoother; not sure if that's possible considering the multiple objects + distance you're tracking, perhaps just zooming out slightly more would help?
Anyway, fanastic work. Unique!
Innovative concept and well polished, nice job!
RPG pinball? Excellent! So much fun!
This is pretty awesome :) I like all the sound effects! Great job!
You made an awesome game. Wow. Cute graphics and music, great idea, and it's really fun to play. Well done, Sir! :)
I had to play this through. This was fun! Loved the audio and the humor.
OMG this is one of my favorites so far! Such a great idea and so well executed! Really well well done on this!
Clever mix of genres and liked the way you have the different players as your different balls, fun entry.
Awesome! Great music, great homage to Final Fantasy, and a surprising mixture of RPG and pinball.. that works! It even perfectly represents the typical RPG story structure. Impressive and funny :D
Hahahahahanother castle! Thanks for this funny game.
This was fantastic! My only gripe might be that once a hero engages with an enemy, even by tilting you can't seem to escape. I lost heroes to bears every single time, and no single hero seemed able to kill one.
That said, you've combined two genres so, so well here, your visuals and audio were both excellent, and I had a lot of fun with this!
Cool FF-like title screen, and a very funny gameplay mechanic, pinball RPG, nice :D The controls to "tilt" are a bit random I feel and your game didn't fit the theme. But it is a great game. Good job :)
Very cool mechanics, and excellent graphics. Fun game!
This is amazing. Seriously, if this were a full game with more polishing and content, I'd pay some serious bucks for it. It kinda reminds me of Half Minute Hero. I loved this. Great job!
Fantastic game! Absolutely loved the concept, and the graphics were cute. Personally, I wish there'd been less reliance on tilting, because I am bad at it. :p
This is a game I really enjoyed! quite an interesting concept, Awesome entry!
Overall very cool entry. Art, Music, Humor and Idea are great. I don't see any connection with the theme, though.
Reminds me of half minute heroes with a twist!
This game is really really cool. I love the FF touch !
Totally genius. Pinball meets RPG. Wow. Just wow.
Great remake on ff!
Great Game!
Nice mechanicals!
But I didn't saw the use of the theme
OMG THIS IS AN EXCELLENT GAME! *****
My only drawback is that there isn't a lose condition. Hopefully, if you'd add this, I'd definetly buy this on the Play Store!
Bloody genius. I've seen slightly RPG-ey takes on pinball before but nothing quite like this. Love it. Fun to play, and nice presentation too. Only problem is it doesn't really follow the theme, but otherwise excellent!
A RPG-Bumper, classic.
Wait, what ?! O_o
Incredible idea, and good realisation, well done. :)
Brilliant idea, although a bit hard to link to the theme. The visuals and music are perfect, too, a wonderful tribute to FF games.
I could see this concept made into a bigger game. Great work!
I love this game. I was pretty frustrated at first, but I should have read the directions more clearly. I didn't get the tilt until unable to make it to village 3 for 3 minutes. Great visuals, great mechanic, great music, great controls. The theme is a bit of a stretch. I see where you're coming from though.
i think this is my most favorite game of the jam
Omg, this game is so great!
Crazy fun game with cute graphics and music to boot. Great work on this.
Lacking in theme, but really great game! Super fun. Great music and art too!
Great entry, i love the game mechanics!
cute and cool game.
Remind me of "squids".
I love the "extraball" feature...
Definitely one of the best games I've played! Well Done indeed!!
I would buy this so fast for mobile or even just on my laptop!!!!!
This is BEYOND amazing and fun. I found the tilt mechanic a little weird and unpredictable but it was still cool.
Two things I'd love to see:
1) A combo meter that keeps building like pinball
2) RPG elements like different stats for party members and shop or towns to upgrade stuff!
All together, this is EASILY in my top 5 games! Please, please, please make a post-jam version!!!!
Wow, really neat idea to combine final fantasy, pinball, zelda and mario. You executed it well too - it was paced well, the music was great, the physics weren't too frustrating, and there was a neat graphical style. As far as improvements go, I'd say adding some more variety in mechanics would be nice - the inns and guild houses were cool, but a larger variety could keep the game going longer.
Nice, I played it to the end :) but I can't give 5 stars because it's not respecting the theme.
So much for the theme, but thqt entry is awesome (wow, such fun. Very idea. Wow)
The control could use some work though.
My favorite entry! This game is really awesome. I really hope you made a full game with this idea. Congratulation !
Fantastic idea, really pretty with nice sound and good mechanics, great job!
A gameplay I haven't seen before, that was really refreshing. My only comment is about the bouncing, it feels a bit weird. You should consider making it a full game, I am sure that if you add a story it will sell.
This game was a lot of fun! I loved everything about it!
Very fun but a bit confusing come times. Love a lot the music and the graphics. Very nice game!
Lovely tune, weird and confusing gameplay but still really fun.. 4/5
Wow simply amazing.One of the most innovative games I have played.
