Promising ! Would recommend trying it even if very early in development.
Has lots of customizations (player title, sounds, ball skins) and achievements to unlock too if that's your jam
Performance is good, game is lightweight, and the dev cares about our feedback too.
Suggestions to the dev :
- The game is a bit hard to find, I typed "Terry ball" and couldn't find anything :/
Had to type "terryball" which is a bit less intuitive to then find it in the s&box list.
- The background music with long lasting high pitched notes is plain horrible, I had to mute it - The other one is much better
- I'm not fond of the default goal/countdown sound effect either, it feels low quality and is just loud (air horn is better but still loud and sudden)
Also no ingame volume sliders, IMO it's better to have an integrated one rather than sticking to the default s&box one
When customizing sounds there's almost no audio in the left ear compared to the right ; And "Ping" doesnt seem to make any sound?
- I don't understand why there's "Start game" when create game does the same but better because of custom settings?
IMO you should keep "create" game, it's very intuitive and the default settings seem to be the same as "start game" anyway.
- The jetpack seems broken, it gives me 25% fuel but as soon as I use the jetpack it goes to 14% then 3%, it's not smooth
25% seems good enough to not be too OP but right now because of the bug it lasts 5 seconds at the very best :/
- The ability to kick the ball is great gameplay wise but I don't understand why we gotta touch it in order to charge and keep the kick
it's just frustrating, I think it'd be better if you could charge it fully no matter where you are or at least a little bit (like 50%)
- The stadium themselves are good enough for now no need for rocket league level of details but the lighting is uniform and not very good
There's no player/ball/fuel shadow for example :/ Maybe it needs SSAO too to look prettier as well? Anything would do wonders really
The game could benefit from having more visual effects too, when you run/kick the ball or when you use jetpack for example.
- Like I said in Discord it's not clear that there's a button to start the match.
- The bots are very easy to beat, IMO you should increase their running speed to match ours.
Seems fair to me else we always outpace them, also it will be more fun that way :)
