Me sad :(
It is VERY difficult though, me playing alone and wanting to just shoot the ball in one goal, I lost 23 : 31 :(
I only tested it with myself, but I imagine this to be quite enjoyable.
It was somewhat difficult to intentionally hit the ball correctly, having that auto-target in there was a nice touch and probably helped a great deal though. Perhaps the ball was a bit too sensitive, since touching it sends it flying all over the place... creating a nice bit of chaos... but at the same time making things a bit haphazard.
The idea of limiting the player to jumps was a cool avenue to explore, though that in addition to the overly sensitive ball creates a loss of control which I found to be somewhat discouraging.
I didn't mind the lack of direction, I ended up trying to only score in the right goal since it made a more positive sound.
Staying in the place to where you jumped and the screenshake make for great feel, but some effects like the trails in the characters take a bit away from it.
It could be a fun game if toned down a bit. Good job!
