Snookers a pretty fun game. I had trouble with pretty much every aspect of this game though. Might be good to list your controls in the game description. With a bit more work this could be a fun snooker game... definitely doesn't fit the theme of the jam.
Hey this game taught me how to play snooker which is cool, love the vibe, voice acting and music. Controls could be a bit better but it deos it's job!
The vibe is really cool and i really love the sound design! Keep it up! But I just realized.... I don't know anything about snooker, but making balls go plong is also fun. :D You nailed the game feel! Could be improved by adjusting when holding and dragging the mouse, but other than that, no complaints here!
A relaxed little game of snooker! I noticed a few times that the trajectory-line didn't predict the direction of the ball very accurately, as it aimed directly at the hole but then the ball veered off to the side. That might have to do with spin, I don't have much experience with actual snooker.
The balls rolled to a stop *very* slowly a few times. A mechanic to hurry that along a little would be nice, keeps you playing instead of waiting.
Personally, I would've kept playing this a lot longer if there wasn't a 5-lives-maximum. If missing would just affect score instead, I could've enjoyed this game for quite a while!
Visually everything is pretty clear, though the green and brown balls don't contrast much with the green of the table. The colors themselves look pretty *standard Unity palette*, a custom or more distinct color palette would've helped set things apart.
Brings back some ancient memories of playing snooker147 (is that what it was called?) more than 2 decades ago. Amazed at how much technology has advanced since then.
Really great snooker game i managed to get 8 points if only real life snooker has laser pointers telling me where the balls go...
Nice job with the math, but no combos eh?
Thanks for the great play
That's a wonderful game, I like it! Relaxing and challenging at the same time. Thank you!
I was pretty bad, but I still had fun trying the game. Well done.
Pretty good snooker simulation but it does seem like a big stretch with regards to the theme 😅 Music is a nice fit, even if you opted out of the audio category, as are the sounds. Graphics are a little wonky as you say yourself but it works quite well for this tbh; you don't need more for this kind of game. The one thing I found weird was how the game controlled. Unless it was a bug I couldn't hold and drag to aim the cue, I was only able to click and have it rotate instantly. Usually a game like this would let you control power by how long you hold the button or something, so setting it with a slider felt strange too. Definitely had a vibe too it and it was enjoyable just to play tho!
It sure is a snooker game. I didn't find anything new to complain about, apart from issues mentioned above (like the ability to speed up time and "hold to select strike power" feature), but unlike other people I did actually like the controls.
Nice game. The physics is pretty good, and the graphics aren't *that* bad :grin: Ability to move the camera would've been good. Good work.
