Good job!' The game is fun, You put effort into this. I am proud of you!

I like the concept for this game. I've never played a pachinko-styled game, and I think this has a lot of potential for something amazing. 

I think this would be a great mobile game, something to just relax with in bed. Music is nice, I like it, it didn't loop though, so it stopped after a while, then resumed after I completed the apple level.

I would have loved for some different level layouts to make levels more interesting, maybe like pegs in the shape of a tree, or upside down tree, or other obstacles in the level that the faces follow to make me guess where they are going to end up. The different shapes for the pegs was interesting and fun, but doesn't change too much on a per-level basis, the smiles still travel in the same directions. The level with the squirrels, birds and dolphins in the third area is good, exactly what I wanted. I loved the space level! the starts lighting up surprised me. I would have loved for some levels like these to appear in the earlier areas to have some variety. 

When the eyes appeared, that was a fun and surprising moment. Guessing what it is they are looking at, and seeing a gold smile drop down but then miss it was really engaging. Definitely the kind of thing I was hoping for to change things up. 

I didn't realize you could click on the smiles to get bonus points, I only figured that out after two got stuck on some pegs and I clicked them hoping they got free, and they did! Smart design! It also makes for some interesting min-max gameplay, trying to click on them as they fall to get a lot of points. (funny thing, you still get points if the game is paused and you click on them XD)

Sometimes the smiles go much further outside the range that I can catch them, the basket wont go to the edge of the screen, that part I don't like a lot. 

Overall, I really enjoyed the game. It was really surprising and fun, and definitely refreshing as Smol Beans says, this is a kind of fun that I never expected or had before. 

Excellent controls . . . Interesting Art Direction?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I for one can surely resonate with the message behind this game. We all have busy days and need a break. I can't tell you how many games and devs I need to review and how refreshing it was for me to play this. 

The gameplay is simple, but solid. You don't need fancy physics to accomplish what you were aiming for and to that I say good job. The controls feel a bit loose at times, but that could be due to my mouse's extreme calibration. rather than shotty design.

Now for the level difficulty . . . It's fine. The difficulty ramps up just enough as to where the player's not being bombarded with ball after ball, but essentially eased into the challenge. Nice balance.

Now my only real complaint could be labeled as subjective, but I feel that the art design, while creative in its own right, needs to go. Everything has this weird Salvador Dali aesthetic to it, which creeps me out instead of calming me. Now again art design can be argued up and down the street, but I feel that you should try to aim for a more soft and cartoonish look. 

Something that doesn't have so many hard edges and whatnot. Now for my final piece of advice . . . Please change that U.I(User interface). While your artwork is strange yet intriguing, the U.I is so stock and unimagined. Now I can tell that you're still working on this game, but you'd need to really shake up the menus if you plan on getting serious with this game.

So in conclusion, we at Shock Site gaming give this 3.5 stars out of 5. Keep working on this, it's not the end, but only the beginning.
