Nothing makes me happier than the way Bowl stumbles around.

I got a good laugh from the peek behind the scenes in the back room :) Thanks for sharing!
I legit couldn't stop smiling. Cute, funny, and with a banger ending.
It worth to see the ending) BG Music a little bit annoying, cuz of repeationg and volume)
I like the raw feel of this game — sound and graphics go together well. It'd be good to have a damage meter for the door to see how much progress I'm making.
Love the artstyle and the simple-but-effective concept. Silly goose status: confirmed. Music definitely could've been more varied and/or quieter. A better framerate would've been nice as things looked choppy as I moved around (interpolation!). And don't take this the wrong way... but my "bawls" got stuck in the maze area and I couldn't get them out! I was able to wiggle them free eventually, though XD
@dovodx yeah the maze was a bit last minute lol
Delightful little entry. It is very fun to go around the bowling alley and defeat the pins while getting more and more bawls, and the payoff for the ending is very good. This little game knows what it's about, and doesn't waste any time getting to the "good stuff". Great work! (PS: Oh- and the graphics and sound fit perfectly, too! Little details make it all come together...)
Fun game! The ending was a great idea! Thanks for making.
Very sweet game. I'd argue that the bawls shouldn't collide with the player character, and maybe some bounciness would be nice to include some more controlled chaos, but I still had a great time with the game!
Wow, way more fun than it looks. I really liked the mix of brick breaker with pikmin. I think you should look into that. There a lot of things in this game though that could start to annoy you if it were a bit longer, like the little guys getting stuck behind every corner. But if you spend longer on this game you should be able to iron those things out and give the guys a proper AI and stuff.
Obviously the looks of this game don't deserve to be in a museum, although it wouldn't be too out of place with the crap they put in there nowadays, but at least it is coherent, which goes a long way in making it look pleasant for your eyes. Well done!
Pretty fun! (Even if I think I pretty much cheesed my way out of the whole game by alternating left and right click...)
The maze was an especially interesting concept; getting the *Bawls* out of it required a bit more strategy than the rest.
Loved the ending!

Cool game
Despite the simplicity this was actually a really fun game! Did run into some frustration trying to get the balls around corners in the little maze section. Overall fun little game.
Graphics were fun and music and sound effects are something most entries lack, good job
got a chuckle out of me with the ending, well done!
