I made this game hoping it would be a bit better, but because I can not make the best graphics and only have paint, this is what I came up with, well enjoy whats here!

I can too but this is flash so it has code!
A nice start
The game has a nice premise and even has a nice beat. The problems are ...1 the game never gets harder. 2...The music is destined to repeat and annoy the audience. 3... the dog and the tennis balls are too simplistic. 4... The scoring is based on time not ball catches which 7688 points tells me I have been playing for at least 768 seconds not how many balls I have caught which the normal user likes to know. The dog could at least nibble the ball or its mouth could be aimed at the targets.

thanks for the decent review I barely spent any time on the music and as I said i am terrible with graphics. I also attempted to make it based on score but then if i got it it would be like - 1 collect another ball - 11 another - 111 and so on, but thanks for the starting complement
well, its not really a game
theres no way to lose, it just gets boring quick. it should end after a certain amount of dots hit the bottom or something
hallaby responds:
Yes the balls fall to the bottom of the screen makes you lose!
Room for improvement
Graphics: 2/10
Poor, as you stated. Possible improvements are added background with more details, varied colours on the balls.
Animation: 4/10
At least it was relatively smooth...
Sound: 2/10
Horribly annoying music, but I guess that's just my opinion. Might be beneficial to add the option to disable the music, or have more than one choice. No sound-effects upon contact with the balls - might want to add some kind of low-volume effect to indicate you actually hit something.
Gameplay: 3/10
Bland. I would recommend adding another gameplay element or two.
Average: 2.75/10
Lots and lots of room for improvement.
hallaby responds:
you are pretty much correct except I think gameplay deserves a higher score, but also I like the suggestion and may add some stuff to avoid in that categry
sweet!!!!
is that the song from pokemon?
hallaby responds:
yes
