I tried hard to like this game, but the catch/throw mechanics are really unresponsive. I can literally stand where I spawn, repeatedly left click while balls are thrown towards me, and I would not catch any of them. In fact, all of them would go right through me. I did get an opportunity to actually catch and throw some balls while moving, but then actually controlling my throw back was very difficult. I recognize the effort put in the sound effects and music and the gym atmosphere. Just needs a lot more work on the gameplay and balancing to make sure the game can eventually be fun.
I actually really liked this, managed to get to wave 5 before getting beaten to death. I think the only problem with the catch and throw mechanic is that you have to click on the specific ball you want, which is a lot more difficult than it is satisfying. A really good foundation and concept though. If you wanted to take this further, I would make it so that to catch a ball, you have to left click just before a ball hits you, and then it will automatically pick up the closest ball to you, then give you an indicator to show where you are aiming. If you did this I would also put a small window on how often you can pick up a new ball after throwing one to stop people just standing in the middle and spamming left click.
One last thing, put a screenshot or 2 on this page, people are a lot more likely to download and play it that way
