My very first jam participation.

You play a dude fending off hordes of alien robots using your squash racket. To do this you have to bounce the ball atleast once off a wall and hit them. By using the up to 3 bounces multiple enemies can be hit in one attempt.

Took a while to figure out the ball had to hit a wall to kill aliens... Cool idea.

Surprisingly fun. The ricochet concept gives it a nice twist.

I really like the concept, but I found the controls scheme a bit difficult.

I like the concept and the fusion of tennis/hack-n-slash. I think it would have landed better if it wasn't so hard to attack. I would have liked to hit the ball without bouncing, and save the bouncing as a cool trick. Essentially I think the action needs to be sped up. Just my two cents. Nice work overall.
