so its ok for what it is. its a easy little ball hitting game. the trajectory of the balls stays the same mostly which is disappointing but sill fun to kill some time. maybe make the balls faster as time moves on?

HenryExists responds:

I’ve tried making the ball go in different places, but it didn’t really work.

Maybe in the next update, the ball would get faster as time would go on.

you can stay in one position, spam space bar and z, and win the game forever.
there is no powerup or some type of enemy to avoid.
if this was a minigame as part of a story novel, would still be incomplete.

HenryExists responds:

Makes sense, in the next update (that’ll probably not happen) I’ll try fix the game.

there doesn't appear to be any goal... when you hit the ball it just goes straight up. The little wiggle the player does to hit the ball is hardly an animation... The graphics are okay and the music is cool . the game is playable but it seems like there's no reason to play it. Okay, I replayed and it appears the goal is to not be dead and get as many points as possible.. But that's kinda boring maybe add a bit of flare to the death animation. lol. And I think six lives instead of just 3 is a good idea, and having the ball move to more places on the screen would be cool with like.. a bigger area and faster moving speed. Anyway, those are my thoughts on the game I think it needs some work and maybe a score table.

HenryExists responds:

Maybe, but I’ve tried making the ball go in different places, but it doesn’t seem to work, and 3 lives are name of the game (actually)

It’s based off a game of the same name we used to play in my Tennis lessons, and this is a tribute to it.

And I like your idea of a score, I was planning on adding that immediately when I started exporting the game, and I thought “Dang, that’ll be a cool idea.”

I think your constructive criticism makes sense, and I might make that the next update.
