The idea of using 2 buttons for many controls is really cool and fits the theme well.I like the simple artstyle for the game too.
When I play I have a bug where the image in the top right hand of the screen keeps expanding obscuring the right hand side of the game.
Good game, love the difficulty (SPOILER: really hard!!)
The controls were a bit difficult to understand. Also the image on the top right kept growing an blocking my view. I couldn't finish. Nice music though.

The theme is used well, and the game is quite hard. But the game isn't really fun, because the ball is hard to control. (and yeah, there is a bug with the sprite at the top right of the screen, he's expanding)

Interesting use of the theme but it does make for tedious game play. The ever-expanding direction indicator in the top right is an interesting touch. Music and sounds were great though.

Nice game, but very hard to control well, the countdown is not very intuitiv ^^
I had a nice expérience overall ^^
Hard and Fun. Nice done.

Yup, 2 buttons it is, and it is quite hard. Not exactly obvious what grows - is that the movement force over time?
Maybe, you should remove the theme "Growing" in your game, because is annoying and give nothing to the game.
Btw, the game is fun :) hard but fun so great work

Hmm, it seems this game has been entered into the Audio category, but the music appears to be by Kevin MacLeod, which I don't think is you. Are you sure that's correct?

took a while to get used to controls but was pretty interesting once you do... little hard to make a precise move still
It took me a while to figure out the mechanics, but I think I got them. Good visual feedback, but I'm not sure forcing in the "growing" theme really made the game better. Nice job!
Damn you index finger and your automatic reactions to move an item.
Really nice and annoying (in a good way) difficulty, thanks for an interesting concept!

Two buttons theme use in this one is really great, but growing graphic is just irritating - in fact, I thought it was a bug at first. Graphics are very basic, but I get that they're not really a focus.

Thanks for all the feedback.I really like that people spend some of the time to look at my game.I know that the game is not close to even being perfect.But for now that is the best i can do.After i just staqrted programming games. Be sure that next round the game i submit will be much better.
This might be one of the better uses of two buttons I've seen so far. As much as I like the music, it feels sort of out of place.
I don't understand what the point of the growing button indicator is, and the point when it covers the "hole" screen looks like it will be sometime tomorrow at this rate. The game itself is quite fun to play, the problem is that things aren't making much sense right now.
