The mechanics simple enough once I spotted the `X` *and* arrows for angled bouncing. But basically I found that I never had a chance to bounce one off to the side without the next falling down costing me a life. That was I managed to get to level two, but then died promptly. One way to fix this would be if the pipe gave a warning that the package was on its way. So I had time get back to center. And also to have packages for first and second level come much less frequently. At least give me three extra bounces not really needed if you know what you are doing per package on the first level.  And maybe the packages in the beginning should have parachutes?\n\nFun idea though.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Liquidream","author_uid":"1047713","time":"2017-12-07T06:19:23Z","epoch":1512627563,"modified":1512627563,"text":"@local-minimum:\nThanks for this extensive feedback, it's both **very** helpful and much appreciated. \nI originally planned for a countdown\/warning when the next package arrived, along with the color to expect (so you can plan ahead - like Tetris) - but I kinda liked the *panic* of having to make a quick reaction\/decision to sort while it's falling out of the tube.\nBut you're right, I still need to add an actual warning of *when* the next drop is, even if I withhold the color.\nI also love the idea of extending the drop intervals between drops for early levels - will think more about the parachute idea tho! :D\nAgain, thanks for the great feedback!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Gurbx","author_uid":"1010425","time":"2017-12-07T13:29:46Z","epoch":1512653386,"modified":1512653386,"text":"It took a while to get used to the controls, but once you did it was really fun and challenging!
