  sizcoz Thank you very much for the capx! Concise and easy to read. I can't think of a better solution for this kind of problem.

  Yeah, looks like cola! Makes me thirsty. This could be useful for every ocean/beach fun themed game. The gold one looks also very good. You got talent.

  Hi, you mean the Impressions Games/ Sierra Classic? Wow, seems to be a real challenge! Do you have experience in game programming, because for a first project this can become quite confusing.

  Hi, I have played your demo. Here is my opinion:

  The graphics are an eye catcher and I liked the story very much. The whole concept gives a quirky, lively impression. For this early stage of development not bad.

  But the gameplay - so far - is to sloppy. Is there a possibility to reload my skills? I was unable to kill off the big pixs because I was soon out of ammo.

  I would also put a description of the game objectives into the demo itself.

  — Did you know that they made a remake 2013 called Speedball 2 Evolution? Link here:

  It seems to be an exact copy of the classic game but it wasn't received to well since it had no online multiplayer mode and the AI wasn't improved.

  On the other hand: Classic games are often more fun to play. The game objectives are more creative and the gameplay is often better developed. In modern games one has often either to many possibilities like to many options - upgrades, downgrades, enemy types, enemy options, tech tree options, etc. - or you the whole thing is repetitive and dull with tedious game mechanics. I'd prefer a good remake to a new game.

  — I haven't played the original but I just watched a gameplay vid on youtube. Looked fun to play! A remake with the opportunities modern physics offer would be great. I will play it!

  That's fascinating! You developed a compelling concept for the graphics. Even the gifs are immersive.

  Neat! For a first game not bad. I would put the the description of the objective of the game into some kind of intro.

  I find a two color palette appealing. They used it on Paper Sorcerer which was received quite well. In all reviews I read, the art style was commended. I think this game was a success but I'm not sure about it. They liked it on GOG. So I assume they sold some copies.

  Nice one! Played it a couple of times. Worked as intended with Opera and firefox. It is clever and addictive. I will recommend it!
