So happy to find this as the original is one of my all time favorite games as well. If I can drop a few suggestions...
-I think it'd be nicer if the pointer didn't jump to the other side when you reach the bottom. It makes it tricky to shoot balls on the bottom on either side as I'm often accidentally shooting in the wrong direction.
-I'd make any d-pad button work for shooting. Just even more convenient.
-A high score screen with name input would be a very nice addition.
La puntuación más alta se guarda y se muestra al final, pero la compatibilidad con el marcador compartido solo está disponible para los juegos del catálogo de Panic.
This is too cool!! Love the patterns on the balls, makes it a lot more intuitive played in black and white than I'd have expected. This is exactly what I'm looking for in a Playdate game honestly.
Great game, defently one of my favourites so far. You should put a price on it, its worth paying money for it.
One suggestion I would make - make it possible to launch the ball using the d-pad up arrow - makes it a bit nicer to play with the crank. A music track could be cool to :)
i'm also itching for a dpad launch button. really, all face buttons including dpad could trigger ball launch, as there's no other command to dedicate to the buttons.
the ball patterns are a little tricky to discern at a glance, but it is functional and i'm not getting confused often. if there's any bandwidth to devote to overhauling the patterns, this would make the user experience all the better.
Thanks, gg, for an excellent port of a great Pico-8 title. I hope to see more Pico games come to Playdate

entiendo, el punto es que no haya un top 10 por ejemplo, y asi competir con quienes comparto el juego viendo sus iniciales
I just can't stop playing. What an addictive game!!! Thank you so much

Thanks for an awesome game!
This is really fun!
Loved this early pico8 game and this is a great conversion.
I’d love to be able to use any D-pad direction or button to fire the ball as the A button is the trickiest to use with the crank.
My main critique is that the ball patterns are (for me) a little difficult to tell apart, but I know first-hand that is a challenge.
my best so far
Top game ! like it! <3 ... 5Stars
hey GBM! nice seeing you here.
