Probably my favorite game yet! Some levels are very difficult but everything feels good. The only thing that I don't like are the customers eyes that stare into my soul lol.
Foon → Ludum Dare Explorer → LD53 → Pizza Slingshot

Cool gameplay! The artwork was super neat. Didn't quite complete all the levels, but was fun playing the first few.
Super clean style, intuitive mechanics and level design that ranges from brilliant to devious. To top it all off, the music absolutely slaps.
The art assets are really cute, but for accessibility purposes, the colors are really unkind to sensitive eyes. The gameplay and physics aspect are well-done! Especially the audio!
Impressive scope, nice work! All the levels had interesting solutions.
The art is incredible good. The game play is fun, simple and easy to understand. You also made a good bunch of levels to play. Nice job!
I like how the new mechanics are progessively introduced to the player along with some excellent puzzle levels for each mechanic. I had some issues with the slingshot automatically firing if the cursor went outside the edge of the screen. I enjoyed the game quite a lot, I managed to get to the green pizza levels. Well done!
Never have I thought that someone will make Angry Birds like game with pizza throwing!
- Delivery theme is strong with this one - Graphics and animations are very good - Music in compo is always a + - Like the puzzle and level designs! - Different pizza flavours only adds to the gameplay depth and loop - I like the first slingshot hint, so you know what you're dealing with
Like some other players here, I had a problem with my cursor going out of bounds of the game and the slingshot automatically loosing the grip or firing because of that. Not a big deal.
I now have to ask Dominos to introduce pizza catapult for delivery... :pizza: Great job!
@mikoziq @rendow sorry about the cursor issues! It seems to only be an issue on the HTML5 version, and I unfortunately wasn’t able to find a workaround. The windows build shouldn’t have that issue though!
Great art and audio. The physics feel great. Had a lot of fun. Different pizzas keep it entertaining all through out the levels. Awesome job!
You produced so many levels, it's a shame not to see them because I'm stuck at level 6, but in any case excellent work, art, sound everything is perfect
@tasakasama sorry to hear you got stuck! Here's a complete playthrough video that might be able to help you get past it :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Hw20c50Qmo
Wow, some of those levels were tough! It's innocent art style gives the illusion of an easy game, but it the difficulty really sneaks up on you. Nice work!
I recorded a video or myself playing the game for maximum feedback: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6s5gDEpN7rM
@100th-coin thanks for the video and impressive that you were able to beat the whole thing! To answer your question about why some levels have more pizzas than required, it’s partly so that you don’t have to wait as long between shots, but it also makes it so one miss in a level with multiple customers doesn’t automatically end your try, such as in the 2nd to last level. Sorry about the issues with dragging the cursor off the screen, it seems to just be a problem with HTML5 unfortunately :(
Thanks again for playing, it was a pleasure to watch!
Nice game! I hope my next pizza will not be deliver in this way :D
Impressive!
The ricochet technique can be quite challenging but I managed to pass all the levels XD

The level design is solid and rich in content, especially for a compo game! Besides, it is nice to see the trail of the last shot, since missing a shot in many levels is usually unforgivable. The soundtrack is also great and goes well with the art style.
Nice work!
Gameplay is simple but efficient, I loved it ! Still need to pass the last 2 levels though hehe
Had really fun with this! I stopped at level 16 but I liked that it kept adding mechanics and it got pretty clever. Took me a while to figure out you could switch which pizza to use :sweat_smile:. Nice polished art and sound too and a fair bit of content!
enjoyed every second! but pretty annoying when my mouse is over the playarea - pizza automatically starts fly
Really fun mechanics! Felt satisfying the fling the pizzas and the slingshot felt very accurate! c:
I think the graphics are amazing!
It is a really basic core game with some twist. I missed some explanation about the new things, but overall it is a good game.
While it might be an angry birds kinda clone, its a good one. Nicely done and you made it your own. Beside the html issue of automatic throwing pizza, I would only add, that it would be cool to shoot pizzas at the same time, so to speed up the process ^^
Awesome work!
I liked the art in this one. Reminds me of Kirby's Dream Course in a way. One thing I'd change, which I guess is pretty nit-picky, is the clients dialog ballons having the separation from the origin of the balloon. Doesn't change anything in the game but it feels weird for some reason.
Anyway, the sound as a whole is very fitting and I like how addicting it is. Most of the time it feels like you were this close from advancing to the next stage. And when you have no idea it is hard to just let go because it makes you feel like testing stupid angles!
The powered up pizzas really lacked some explanation mid-game, but reading on the page's description was enough. Also, it's rather easy to figure out by yourself.
Kudos on such an addictive experience.
Wow, how'd you design so many levels during the compo? I enjoyed the different pizza types, although I think it might have been better if they'd each had their own thing (destroying walls, bouncing) instead of having to share those attributes with others. I appreciated the way you made use of the different wall-destroying behaviors of the sausage and pepperoni pizzas, though. Nice work!
very fun game. Reminded me of something i would play on armourgames in ye olden days
This game is so polished! Amazing visuals and audio as well as solid gameplay! Good job, nothing to complain about :)
What a fun game! As far as jams go, this is the full package, and then some. No complaints from me!
I don't know but that's exactly how I get my pizza, standing in a field and getting it flung at me! Loved the graphics, audio and the gameplay. The unique different style of pizzas was fantastic, loved that addition, so it didn't get repetitive and plus it made me really think. Really loved the graphics, they were so simple yet cute and well done. Easily one of the games I've sunk the most time into, got carried away trying to beat it, great use of physics too, nothing seemed off ever. Fantastic stuff!
Very cool little game. The idea is great, graphics are neat and the puzzle build up quite nicely. Really solid entry for a compo. Nicely done.
What a delight to play! I've played a lot of games like this, even before Angry Birds. I always liked to calculate the routes. The art is simple and very beautiful (point to the strong colors) and the music is very good too. Blends in with the Environment.
Congratulations on the job.
This game was super fun to play, the angry bird mechanic was well derivated to fit the theme and the universe you created. Multiple levels with great difficulty! Minimalist graphics and overall polish make it a wonderful game!
Wow what a well polished game! Great music and graphics. The gameplay is fun too! I wonder what the pizzas are made from :D those are some really durable pizzas!
Oooh, I really like the bobbing heads - not sure where my nostalgia for that comes from tough. :smile: Really well polished, I enjoyed it!
This felt very polished for a compo game! Good idea to have the limited bounces on the pizzas :)
