Gotta enjoy some local multiplayer games :D I like the idea of making it a cannon instead of an... can't figure out the name. You probably know what I mean :wink:
I Pretty love this game ! First, gg to use Unreal Engine, its pretty rare !:D The graphics and lightning are really well made, so its beautiful to watch as a starting point. The Gameplay is pretty simple, shooting the ball and scoring with it, nothing much, so its really easy to understand. As soon as we start playing it, we have a much fun ! :D
Most of it, the sound ambiance is pretty funny > , and the music give to the game a good mood.
Fun for local multiplayer. Don't think the theme is that great. I get what you wanted to do here but overall fun game and local multiplayer is always a +1 :)
This is one of these games I would have played for hours with my brother back when we lived with our parents. Great entry! I delete most of the ldjam games after a few weeks but this one is a keeper! :thumbsup:
Good game and I like the audio in it, especially the narrator, and I feel it is very fun and replayable. I do think however the tie into the theme is fairly weak, but the game makes up for this. Great job and good luck!
Nice spin on an old genre. I found the two functions on one button (shoot and explode) a little frustrating, especially when I was trying to react quickly to something. Also not feeling the theme but the mood and whackabout style was fun.
I really like the concept of this game, having some sort of 'airhockey' style gameplay with exploding projectiles really adds another dimension to the genre. I unfortunately had to play alone, but I did get the chance to try the mechanics. I felt that it was pretty hard to accurately aim your canon. More slow movement would have solved this (maybe even fast movement whilst holding shift), and something like an aim-line? I liked the graphics, it looks pretty realistic and nice. One last thing, when you shoot at a distance, bombs tend to skip over the ball, which is pretty annoying, hehe. Maybe make it so they can't make any horizontal movements, or whatever. Anyway, good job on making a game this jam :)
@virtual-turtle-studio thank you for a detailed feedback. In my play testing, I found that a more slow rotation not was a good idea, because you then can't respond fast enough to fast moving balls. And I found that exact precision is not super important, because it is mostly the explosions that pushes the ball.
I have also tried making the bombs collision into a sphere, and this made them fly much more precis and they did not jump over the ball. But for some reason it made the game less fun to play.
Your game is so funny - I love these cheers "Goal, Goal, GOAL!!!". And I really enjoy your game! Moreover, idea to move ball by explosion is really fresh to me! Good job! :D
This game idea is really cool, had some fun playing it (: Nice graphics and music as well. It was a little away from the theme in my opinion but anyway, congrats on creating this nice entry! :D
Hi! Nice little game i had fun playing it with my gf, she got salty fast it means it's a good game x) Nevermind, well played for your work ;p (sound and music are very cool btw)
Great game! The mechanic is original and simple to control at the same time! Very challenging playing with other player! It's so funny! Maybe at draw situation you can do a "sudden death" xD. Also, the sounds explosions I think need more volume. Overall is an amazing game! Congrats!
A local multiplayer game?!?!?!!? NIOCE~! .. After badgering my house mate to play with me, we had a good 5 minutes or so playing, simple and Fun game. Not sure it fits the theme though
I am not sure that it is truly connected with the theme but it was very fun to play. Even better it was a local multiplayer game. That's really cool. After playing it for a while i wanted to turn off the music but overall it was so fun playing together with my children that music is something you can cope with. All in all a great entry!
@jevgeni-orehhov Thank you for the feedback. I know the use of the theme perhaps is not the best, but the idea is that the cannons sacrifices there friends "Mr. bomb"s. And I agree with you, that the music could have been better, especially if you play the game for more then a few minutes.
Couldn't find how it incorporated the theme, but what I'll tell you is that its a really cool concept with excellent audio design. I imagine it would need a bit more lighting and more responsive controls. But other than that, great job!
Accessible, efficient, playable with another person, polished, fun, good rereading of pong (or windjammers perhaps): that's what I were thinking when I played your game.
Beautiful game with a lot of polish. But where is my AI friend? :(
Cool game overall, I had fun playing but was unable to play with another person. I'll comeback to give a rating when I'm able to play with someone else.
Sound effects were funny and I see the connection to the theme but it could have been used in otherways where a sacrifice has a negative impact.
