Feels like a really simple idea, but it's so much fun! Don't really understand why I go Game Over. Overall it's a great game.

This is awesome! So simple and innovative but perfect for the theme and for the fun. Congratulations!
Nice game, I like the implementation of the theme, the game is fun to play, and quite polished (which is good for a pico8 game).
Something that could really improve the game is a simple animation when the numbers go down, in the beginning I didn't understand that it was actually the same level. Moreover bonuses are reset, so it doesn't help. And I think I'm not the only one, because krammetje (a few comments above) says he didn't understand why he got Game Over.
I have had an infinite loop, as you can see on the picture a ball is bouncing horizontally between the 2 walls (it's not really horizontal because it moves a bit up and down and once in a while hits a number). Moreover it doesn't seem to get the bonus.

Overall I really appreciated the game ;)
Nice mix-up between Breakout and Puzzle Bobble! Really addictive. I didn't get past 51 though.
The Graphics are very nice, the sound effects fit well. The extras are meaningful and fun to look at. The speed-up button is a very important feature.
The only gripe I have is that it's pretty much the opposite of the theme, because the more balls you have, the easier it gets.
Overall a very neat Pico-8 game. Great job!
Very great puzzle game, I'm bad at it, but it's pretty fun and I love how everything shake. I had some issues understanding how the bonus where working, they should probably disappear from the board immediately as a feedback. The powerup only available for the current ball could change the background color. Anyway great job!
Awesome! I got around 298 and then stopped but it looks like once you get the hang of it it never gets harder. Is that something that needs fixing or a philosophical choice? Are you against hardcore players? What are your views on the latest AC?
I'm already spending way more time than I should on this game. It's very polished, there's feedback for everything and it's immediately enjoyable, congrats ! If you could also turn the hit sound a little bit down that would be perfect (I'm looking at you dozens of double boucing balls hitting dozens of bricks ;) )
Very innovative bricks game ! It feels so cool when we send tens of balls... congratulation !
Ok, this was FUN!
I got up to 33, which is where I somehow managed to make some of the balls go in a horizontal pattern and they would never end up in the bottom of the screen.
So far, this has been my favorite of the whole lot I've been playing this year :) Great stuff!
One of my favorite games in this Ludum Dare so far! The art was very charming, I like the style a lot. It functioned perfectly and was very easy to grasp, excellent work!
Really solid entry. Love the demake on Pico-8! Swipe Brick Breaker was really nice on mobile (and then came Ballz by Ketchapp)... Do you know the original? (I don't!) Anyways, this demake is absolutely fantastic. Cheers!
A very fun little arcade game. The graphics good, and the sounds is okay. The game begins to lag, when I had about 80 balls. Overall a well made game.
My best score was 158.
