Great game! Although the art style is simple, it's executed in a really stylistic way!

Reminds my of gym class back in the day.

I absolutely love how the controls are apparent and the game explains itself pretty naturally.

Minor suggestion: I'd like to use a different hand to press the Jump and Smash buttons, but E/R keys are too close to WASD. Maybe change to space bar for jump and Ctrl or Alt for Smash?

I like it! I didn't had any one to play with BUT the ai did kick my ass a few times which is good! Definitely would have improved the controls a little bit. Also maybe adding cooldown to swings would improve the game, as it is easy to just spam the buttons :P Non the less, an awesome entry, glad you could make it! ♥

I didn't have friends to play this game with 😢. However, even so, the game was exhilarating and fun.

I really love the lavish animations and the rich variety of player expressions. Both the art and the music have their own unique atmosphere that I find captivating. :)

well, the goal of this game for me was to take revenge on the AI and throw a harder ball at it) cool!

Except for the music, it's a really great game, but luckily you can turn that off :). It's really fun and I think the graphics are great. It's also great that you can play against the AI.

A great entry, controller for player 2 was defo better than keyboard controls

Its a very nice and cute looking game. I really like your hand drawn sketch like graphics. The theme was developed well and the gameplay is fun. Great work!

Very stylish graphics. I like the music, I think it suits the style of the game very well. It was very fun to get two AIs to play with each other! Perfect

Very interesting & unique style and super fitting music - I really liked the slowdowns when the powerups waned :D

Fun little game!

Nice twist on the Pong formula, it's true that the AI could use a bit of improvement but I had fun with it already. The art reminded me a bit of McMillen's work, it adds character to the game.

reminds me of one of my favorites of all time: Slime Volleyball! seems like a game that would really shine with an actual other person to play with : ) liked the art too!

I liked the artstyle. Keys is too close, if playing with two hands.

At some point I start to quickly smash all keys to get my revenge with AI opponent))

Attractive art style! I didn't have to think hard to grasp the controls. Not sure if jumping did much but it was cool to see cube guy bounce all over the place!

Lovely artstyle. The controls felt somehow both intuitive and wonky, which might be because I'm not used to moving around as a square. I personally would have preffered the jump to be on button push rather than on button release, but that might just be me. Fun entry, keep up the good work.

Awesome game! I only wish I could "smash" using the mouse button or maybe space bar as it is a little awkward for me to switch between moving and smashing - could just be player skill issue though! Loved the art!

Differentiated original graphics. A really different idea. Personally, I didn't find it that fun, but it's very functional for a jam, a good job
