Fun game! sucks that the itch.io version doesn't run all that well but still really fun! I found myself messing around trying to find the exact angle haha! I would suggest a restart mechanic as I kept getting frustrated at the fact I had to kill all the dummies to restart the level.

All in all fun game! good job

Nice! Super fun. Originally I played the version uploaded on ld and was frustrated I couldn't get all three stars on the last level. The left room just seemed impossible. Then I saw you had uploaded some fixes to the itch version and I was able to get all three stars on the last level. Nice job!

Really enjoyed this! Such a neat idea! And I couldn't stop a level until I had all the stars. I didn't realise you could move the character until the final level... (That's on me). But I did manage to get 3 stars on the first 5 levels without ever moving the character!

Fun game! Original concept for the theme :)

Realized you can move on the last level xD. I really liked the feel of game and fun idea. I really think this could work on as simple fleshed out puzzle game or even puzzle/stealth where you move around and do crazy trick shots.

Very fun. It was kind of hard to tell sometimes if a shot would actually hit or just barley miss a target as you can still hit something even if the line passes just slightly to the side of it.

Good game. I enjoyed playing it. The only thing it lacked was a restart button after a failed shot. I had to finish off the characters and then replay the level for 3 stars.

Fun puzzle game! I managed to 3 star all levels :smile: Gameplay is simple and rewarding. My only criticism is that sometimes the trajectory line was not accurate to what happened after firing, which made it feel unfair. For example, on the TwoWalls level there were many times where I was trying to line up a precise shot that showed it would bounce 3 or 4 times only for it to bounce once off the corner of a wall and disappear. All in all great fun little game that has potential for expansion! I'm already thinking about the possibilities for exploding assets that do radius damage or scatter shots that split upon bouncing :sweat_smile:

Good little puzzle! I did find the camera angle a bit low, making it hard to tell where the trajectory was exactly. Still beat it regardless though - nice take on the theme!

I thought the game was fun until I discovered that you could move around. Now it's even more fun!
