interesting spin on an old game!
some levels were ridiculously hard though. levels where cannons were right in front of you gave you almost no time to plan an escape route. this is even harder if enemies are floating around nearby as well.
i don't know why controls seemed to stick at times, but moving from one direction to another would sometimes freeze the character, and that made the game even harder.
i started with the explosion build, but found out it was too hard to focus on both the area i wanted to attack and defense. the mini orbs are way better in most cases, especially in enclosed areas.
one bug i found was on the level where indestructible blocks enclosed an area. i guess my ball entered at the right angle and went into the enclosure, but it couldn't escape. i just kept using the explosion thing and got out eventually, but it might have just been luck.
for those playing, the game is definitely possible to beat, but i would go for the shadow orbs over the explosions.
