Game inspired by QWOP and Fruit Ninja
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IMPORTANT: Use V and B to move your character left/right. if I were you I'd ignore the point system once you teleport out of the first room but if you want to score points you have to throw a toy in a pot on a tree.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ball velocity determined by previous ball velocity, Low throws reduce the Y velocity and raise the X velocity, High throws raise the Y velocity and reduce the X velocity, movement of the arm on release also plays a heavy factor.
The pole on your head is for catching Rings, which spawn every 5th prop.
Enjoy my little interactive-toy! It's a bit challenging but if you're the patient type of person perhaps you can appreciate where the idea was going.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-A little buggy, if you run out of props and you want to keep playing, you will need to relaunch.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thoughts post-mortem: Didn't have time to add achievements or objectives, so this is more like a proof of concept for a potential mobile game or console game. Would have been much better with touch or joystick controls for the arms, but hey it works, I added the point system with plans to add an aesthetics-shop but ran outta time, and it's kinda more fun to just keep throwing and catching them anyways. Would have liked to have more sound effects, but I always get impatient making sound. Considering that I have a cold and slept for 24 hours of my 48, I'm pretty happy with what I have
