A well made game i had fun playing. The game idea is neat but the game is maybe a little too challenging.

Interesting idea, this seems like it could be really fun and maybe even a good mobile game. It's just a bit difficult right now. I know you can use the walls to balance, but maybe if you could hit them at a slightly higher speed and still keep going that could help.

I like the game idea and I think it could do well on mobile but like @pvp said it's a bit too hard.

The idea for the game is really good, but the controls are too unforgiving, and the game is too hard. It also would have done well with some good audio.

It's very difficult to play. I like that collecting a perfect row increases the amount of point you get. Very interesting, and for 8 hours it's solid!

Interesting gameplay with a clean visual. It fits with the theme. Controls work well as expected, but it’s too hard. You display your game in a strange frame using an unusaual size, but when I play in fullscreen, I can cheat because all obstacles are out of the main frame :) However I had fun playing. You made a solid entry. Well done ++

PS : rate games - and you get some feedback for your own project. Don't rate game, and you are now in the danger zone :/

The balancing of the ball mechanic could be fun but the obstacles make the whole thing so hard that I can't get anywhere in the game. Seriously, this might be one of the hardest game in the whole jam :D

Also if you go in fullscreen everything becomes totally broken.

I really like the general concept and art, but the game in its current state is just way to difficult. I would recommend shorting the stick you need to balance the ball on, and maybe turning the gravity down.

I had similar issues with my game, so I know the balancing struggle!

Overall, though, with some work, it would be really fun!
