Reviews for "Leila And The Magic Ball"
Awesome game
This is the kind of game I enjoy immensely. Simple, to the point and great controls. Surprisingly many platformers are unplayable because of the controls but this game does that just great.
I noticed that if you jump on the ball and keep on calling it, you can jump higher and higher until you get into space and start floating. That is an amazing detail, thanks.
Lovely
Very cute game :)
It's very good
The physics are especially nice, although I'm sure you'll be hearing that a lot. The water also impressed me quite a bit.
This game is at the point it's core is very solid and it just needs nitpicking, if at all. I'd say the biggest concerns I had was the fact I couldn't control which way the ball was launched, and if I had to shoot it midair I was forced to time the throw in such a way that I wasn't descending by the time I was lined up rather than having a separate key input like: "press the up arrow while releasing the ball midair to have it arc".
The water also made for some unnecessary challenge in a few levels where the realistic physics had some unexpected things happen. For instance in "Leap of faith" I had the girder fall on the wooden bridge, breaking it and trapping me in the pool with no way of escaping. A similar thing happened in "Dukes of Hazard".

Great review! Shooting the ball is one of those things that should ( i hope! ) become second nature with a bit of practice, i can shoot baskets on the basketball level ( number 14 ) from all over the place, and because you can tap the magic button while the ball is in the air it gives you even more control, can do some cool tricks once you get used to it. The water on those 2 levels are supposed to be traps, but i can see how it might be frustrating. I will see if i can give her cool ways to escape.
Great game
It was overall a fun game, and you did a fantastic job on it. But I do suggest you separate the call and throw into two separate keys.. After a while I was starting to get a little angry because I kept grabbing the ball instead of just calling it.
