I love the animation and sound of the duck waddle. Fun game too!

This was an interesting play on the puzzle game nice. The music while they are marching is cute along with the animations! Good entry:)

I love the animations and sound effects. Well done!

This was really fun! I really liked the audio and how the song would play longer the longer your streak was. I felt the time pressure made me make irrational choices that probably did not help my score. I felt like there was a strategy that I could figure out but didn't have the time! Would love to see if the round was limited by moves rather than time

the concept is very interesting, the idea of having a direction with the arrows adds something extra, I like it a lot! I think the animations are a little too long, by playing it must be a bit long, but very good job bravo!

Very nice game! The twist by changing in what direction go the ducks is a very good idea to give some fresh air to this concept. The game also sounds nice, and I love the music when the ducks are moving :smile: One tiny suggestion: I feel you can earn more points by just clicking whenever it's possible to a position that maybe will make you align duck, rather than actually trying to find the best move. It feels a bit like cheating, maybe you can find a way to prevent that?

Good game anyway!

Fun game!

A simple premise elevated by the clever of the direction. I did screw up a few times either not realizing the direction or just making a dumb mistake clicking the wrong duck. A mouse-over on the duck making them look afraid to get destroyed would help much of the problem where I'd select the wrong one to die.

The art looks great, I like the little flame animation and the ducks walking (nice swoosh effect on their eyes). The music is fun and whimsical, but I wish there was some sound there where it's currently silent.

Really cool twist, great example of how to approach a gamejam!

Poor ducklings! Wow, it's a fantastic game and a hidden gem! I hope it gets the attention it truly deserves. The concept is quite original, where you have to line up three ducks, and in each turn, they move north, south, east, or west depending on which gate opens. I might suggest starting with fewer colors, then gradually increasing the difficulty. The game could really expand with combos, power-ups, for example. Since we're already destroying ducks, a power-up like a bomb that clears the surrounding ducks would be great. It's a very good game with a lot of potential, and I hope it gets 20 or more reviews. Great game!

love the game, super fun. Good job!

Haha, very fun game: Quak Quak BOOM! x) I love the animation when the ducks walk. But if you continue developing this game, you should add an idle animation too.

Very cute take on a classic game mechanic. I love blowing up ducks, just for new cannon fodder to come dancing in!

I really like these ducks; they are truly adorable and quite fun to play with. I hope you can also enjoy our game.

Wow, great take on the match-3 formula! Really liked the idea of the ducks coming in from different directions - plus the little waddle animations and sounds really brought everything together :boom:

Great work!

Creative idea with the shifting directions! I couldn't really tell if the order of the directions were random or not. Even when you knew/guessed the next direction it was difficult to lay good groundwork for the next turn. I think I was most often just lucky to get great combinations. However, the feeling when you got those combinations was really great! Sweet animations and good game feel!
