The basic mechanic has potential, but personally I think it's way to hard.
A bit of leeway in the difficulty (Maybe with a healthbar or something?) would be nice in terms of balancing.
Or maybe I just suck at it :D

The game is fun and I like graphics. I get a better score by staying in a corner without moving rather than trying to dodge (but maybe I'm not good at it).

it was fun, i would have liked a smoother difficulty curve. i didn't use the repel button, only the attract one. i liked the visuals!
good job on the jam!

The game's pretty hard but there's a nice feeling to it
I really like the hand-drawn assets, gives it a cool atmosphere, really tactile and cute
some way to survive a hit would ba great but overall it's a sweet game :)

I liked it! personally really dig the ballon dude and how everything has that hand-drawn style. It was fun, congratulations

Absolutely love the paper cut out style, and I've never thought about using the mouse controls in that way. The speed and feel of the player character was perfect. My only note would be to start with only one bad guy to allow the player to get used to the controls. Even after 20+ tries, with four bad guys I could get past 8 as a high score. Besides that, well done! A very beautiful and smooth game! Please do more jams!

well done! maybe a bit hard :P

Pretty hard hahaha I did 14 :D

I loved the audio and paper graphics. The gameplay is very smooth, but definitely very challenging, would love maybe a levels 1 and 2, and the current level be 3 in terms of ramping up the difficulty.
Awesome work!
Awesome work!

Very difficult! My highest score was 12 seconds. I love the aesthetic, great work! :smile:

It feels very satisfying when you manage to succesfully dodge those spiky things. I got 18 in score. I don't know if that is good or not? :)

Really love your pencil and paper style art. Nice entry!
Laughertes20 Aug 2018, 02:10
Love the art style. Great job!

Fun game, but a tad too difficult, highest score I got was 10. I really liked the graphics, very cute and charming.

Game feels complete, graphics are nice, music is nice. I like that you have stuff like high score and a quit button. These are things that a lot of people forget in game jams.
However! You suffer from another issue that I see quite often in game jams. Your game is way too difficult. Remember! You have practiced for 72 hours. What you find easy might be really difficult for someone who has never played your game before. Try to let someone play your game before you submit and see if you should tweak something. This game would be great if you had set the number of enemies at the start to 1 instead of 4.

I agree with everyone before, the game is nice, the controls are innovative, and the graphics is unique and elegant. The high score was also a very nice touch, it made me want to become better. However, the game is too difficult, it is very hard to dodge the spiky balls. A lower starting difficulty and smoother increase would make it better.

i love this concept and gameplay ..,... 5 stars man

Lexyvil24 Aug 2018, 23:17
Simple, yet a very fun, and addicting game! I couldn't beat my high score after a while. I ended up spending 20 to 30 minutes on it.
Rodrigo Molina25 Aug 2018, 04:06
Very interesting game, I liked it a lot, most of the observations I had well already mentioned, so, I only gotta say that, if polished, this could turn into a really nice mobile game.

CristiHKJ25 Aug 2018, 09:58
Great game! Very cool and interesting! :D

bradleypollard25 Aug 2018, 14:39
I love the way it looks, the hand drawn art goes really far. That said, the game gets very hard very quickly and I can't see the benefit of having both push and pull. Once you start using one you don't really have time to switch to the other because if you ever stop moving its very hard to not get hit! It would be good if it was more obvious which part of the spike balls will kill you, since it feels like a lot of it is safe to touch but that isn't obvious from the art.

Great art style and sound. Good job. I like the mechanics as well. Keep it up!
