1 request, could you add a hold-and-charge move that does a big hit or a wider swing? would add some variety to it :D
I really like the weirds effects the ball can have. Sometimes it just spin around me and I don't know what direction to face.
The precision meter is a nice feature, it remind you how much you suck at touching the ball :)
That's a really fun and addictive game, simple and fun.
Physics make this addictive and once I mastered (or at lest got used to) the controls, it lived up to it's potential.
I still suck at the game, though.
