This was a very fun concept, I thought it was impossible until I figured out you can go multiple times and time slows down, I think the hint was trying to tell me that but I'm just dumb sometimes.


This is my first rating so not sure if im doing this right but I guess you just leave a comment?

I managed to do 143. Really good game, you need to be quite skilled with your mouse to get high scores I guess haha.

This would make a nice smartphone game.

@twinkietalks seems like now votes are open. So if you want to finalize yours :smirk:

@diccuric-sigeon good score. I'm not sure I can beat it :laughing:


@castitatis The game is mainly focused to mobile, so it plays better with touch screen. It should work on any device and you can install it from your browser as a PWA. In case you feel to fight for an high score even without internet connection.

Very fun! I played this on mobile which was very smooth. High score 193! The main synth sound got a bit annoying after a while — varying it up or adding other instruments would help. I also think there should be a sound when you hit the apple. Really liked the mechanic. I think a mode with unlimited time slow would be nice since it runs out very fast. Also it is hard to get your finger on the rock when you are flinging it especially if it has ended up near the top of the screen, so it was actually a bit difficult to use the time slow. In any case I had a lot of fun. Great entry!

Really well made graphics. I played it on my computer which definitely seems harder than playing it on a device with touchscreen. An easy mode would be a nice feature where the gravity is a lot lower so the game difficulty is lowered. Well executed idea! Congrats!

Nice fun game to play. Really like the slowing time mechanic of the game.

I think it would be helpful if the gravity would be smaller or the slow-motion a little more intense.

Really loved the slow motion. It is clever to make physic the center of your game. Also love the fact that we can play it on pretty much everything. Would of add maybe a leaderboard if you ever think about releasing the game.

Great entry!

My best score was 204 after many, many tries!.

The game is very addictive! I would want that one try lasted longer. Maybe with some items that rebound the apple when touched, etc.

Got hooked on it. Became an expert. Very satisfying game when you work out the trick to it!

Nice little game, I liked the effects for when you spun the apple 360 degrees. Great job :thumbsup:

Cute little game! I included it in my Ludum Dare compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/e8i89EcGrVo
