i got a time of 34.02 seconds on the second to last level. im pretty sure I now hold the world record for longest time on that level 😎
Great game idea! Love the whole builder aspect and the variety of different possibilities.
Thanks alot!
This has some serious bugs. At times the obstacles seem to get "stuck" with the mouse and no matter where you click, the object jumps to that point, even while trying to pick up another object or click the play button. This happens after letting go of the mouse button, placing it at a specific location, and moving the mouse somewhere else before clicking again. It happened in level 2 and now I'm stuck on level 3 because every time I click the play button, the last obstacle I touched moves out of the ball path.
Thanks for the feedback! We are aware of the bug and are trying to fix it! stay tuned!
This is relaxing and fun at the same time!
Thanks! glad to hear that you enjoyed it!
