The movement is ok, so are the shooting mechanics. I feel like the second level is too difficult but the AI works well so that's a plus. Rudimentary sounds and programmer art bring this game down a bit but when it comes to game jam creations mechanics are more important than the look of the game. On the whole, I think ShootBall has very solid mechanics and it follows the theme. Good job!","likes":3,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"natpat","author_uid":"1077099","time":"2018-04-28T12:23:24Z","epoch":1524918204,"modified":1524918204,"text":"I think it's a great start - the AI seems to work well, if it was more balanced it could be a lot more fun, as it's almost impossible to hit it at the moment. I also found picking up items hard - you have to get very close to them and be very exact about where you're looking.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Mektidas","author_uid":"1007869","time":"2018-04-30T14:57:54Z","epoch":1525100274,"modified":1525100274,"text":"very entertaining, with a little more polishing you can have an excellent product. good job!\n\nyou should add some screenshoot","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"kittyinthestudio","author_uid":"1009042","time":"2018-05-06T17:32:57Z","epoch":1525627977,"modified":1525627977,"text":"this game needs some work. The idea is so awesome. The execution was awesome too. The part that needs work however is teaching and difficulty curves. When i started the game i saw a gun but had no idea how to pick it up. The game had never illustrated to me how to do so. I never figured it out unfortunately. The AI works really well for what i saw. The First level however is a bit to hard for someone starting. This game is very great overall. A lot of polish and touch-up would help tremendously.

I am kind of confused why you had a gun model but still shot dodge balls but I guess that is to fit with the theme.\n\nI also agree with @Mektidas you should add some screenshots and a cover image, but I understand you were busy the last few weeks.\n\nAnyways, congrats on finishing your jam! :)","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"MacDoom","author_uid":"1078881","time":"2018-05-06T20:08:53Z","epoch":1525637333,"modified":1525637333,"text":"Ultra cool concept!\nThe idea of the game is really interesting!

The only thing he managed to do is the guns and I am happy because I wouldn't want to shoot from a cube.
