Interesting technical concept !
@bowen @efilheim There's a big ball guy you can feed the ball plant things to and he gives you more seeds and a bird like every 20 of them. I was going to make em give you other random 3d objects and fun things to play with but ran out of time even though I pulled an all nighter the last day. I actually invented this pseudo 3d trick back in 2018 https://voxeledphoton.itch.io/lovebug but it wasn't as effective since I just made it more transparent and was using some 3rd power distance manipulation instead of just using a sine wave. I also got all the depth stuff sorted out and 3d audio so that was fun. Thanks for playing guys I'll play yours too in a bit.
It was fun to play the game and it has an interesting concept. I didn't get what the goal of the game was, so after punching a few of these balls into the big boy I stopped. I liked the background music. My friend got seasick from watching my stream :D
I was pretty disappointed that I couldn't punch the balls that said hello. It's obvious that my only form of communication is my fists of burning passion.
Really gorgeous looking game, I love the pseudo-3d and the limited colour palette you used. The blues, whites blacks and reds were really used to good effect. I was honestly quite surprised when I hit the plant balls that they did actually react with some sort of physics, I'm so used to pseudo-3d games being very limited in this regard. I will say that as much as I loved the visuals, that did not stop me from feeling physically motion-sick when moving the mouse, maybe having a more controllable rotation would have reduced that. I also really enjoyed the tech, but found the actual game itself could have used a bit more. It felt a bit like a tech demo. Was still a lot of fun to punch balls around and I was impressed by the effect, nice work!!
An uncommon top view, which is very interesting. The music and atmosphere were great.
