Scored 430! That was fun! Would be great to have a dev score to aim for so we know how well we're doing. A gradual build up of momentum might be nice to allow for minor balancing adjustments instead of a sudden velocity change.

Simple, but well done! The music is really great, and the presentation is nice. Could do with a bit more variation in the gameplay to stop it getting stale, but it's a good start.

Beautifully frustrating! I kept being too greedy and trying to catch more stuff before heading to the stable, only to drop it all when the doors closed. Brilliant.

Great job with the theme! The gameplay is very simple, but done correctly, so it's interesting to play.

Hey @shawn-beck That's a great score. I think my best is ~650? So, getting up there!

Nice art and fun high score game! I was getting nowhere until I realized I should move slowly. Good usage of the theme, too.

Interesting little game, I love it!

I like the score setting in the game. Items that are difficult to catch have way higher scores than simple items, tempt you to challenge yourself. Well made and fun.

I am not sure if the game made much sense but the idea is pretty cool :D For me the controls felt a bit too floaty and the horse kept going when I thought it would have stopped. The graphics are pretty cute and fit really well to the game.

Charming game with a lot of attention to detail! I really appreciated the small touches like the counter growing large and red as time ran out, and the horse changing color on restart. The art was great, too. I like the idea of a wooden horse named Mable (kinda like maple, plus it rhymes with stable)! Also, great job with the theme; horse games are great and I love the use of a very unstable rocking horse.

It was definitely challenging. I do wish it had been possible to stack things a bit higher; it would have been fun to try to carry a precarious tower all the way to the barn. Otherwise, though, a lot of fun and I can see the thought and work that went into it.

I like the game, it's a nice simple concept that's been executed well, I especially like the graphical style. It feels like it can be quite dependant on luck sometimes though - I always want the higher valued items to drop. My highest score was 490!
