I love the visual style and the squishiness of the ball and the sound effect are really satisfying. I did find that it was too easy to stay balanced right in the middle of the beam, so maybe having some sort of external effect (i.e. - wind or something) to make things unbalanced would make it more challenging. Nice job!

A cute idea executed well! I really like the simple and clean graphical style, it communicates the mechanics well.

Very minimalistic but quite fun. Clever use of the theme too.
Also, the visuals and the audio do a good job of setting the mood.

It took me quite some time to master the floaty physics but I suppose that's by design.

Wow this was really hard! But I enjoyed it a lot
Controlling the ball is a bit diffult, especially when it moves down after jumping and the platform is almost vertical

The ball animations were so satisfying, love the squash and stretch, and the style is groovily on point; fonts, music and everything. It was very unstable (haha) but very smooth to play.

I was expecting more colors for a game with Disco in his name :stuck_out_tongue:
Maybe the ball is too floaty, but it's still fun to play !

The little animation really work well and sell the "power" of the movement, and the physics, even if a little weird sometimes, is still fun to play with when moving around.
I take a little time to understand what you want me to do in the game, but the score help me understand it and it became a little fun to do (frustrating some times but it's part of the game !)

The only really down side is the fact that the music don't have that much important in the game ... but it's still good

Fun game but very hard! I enjoyed the flashing of colors but felt their could have been more variety in the colors.

It's a good start. Could have done with either a bit more time for each angle, or a faster moving ball - if you're at one side and the target angle is on the other side you can pretty much guarantee you won't get there in time. Nice presentation though, good job!

The concept is simple but so efficient!!
And I like the little detail but make all immersive , it is the deformation of the ball.
Music is totally disco ahah
Good job!!! Thanks for your game!
