Check out Kabocha Game (I made it)

So in retirement I'm looking to find things to fill my day but also provide my brain some growth. I created this game that will be on mobile devices soon. You can play it in your browser now.

I'd love any feedback you have. It's feature complete at itch.io. Just click on the little graphic to start the game. -Casual play for a high score and pumpkins can combine to make a great pumpkin. -Challenge mode is just like Casual play, however, instead of getting time to choose where to drop your veggie you get a couple seconds as it moves from left to right. -Timed mode it's a race to get to a pumpkin. See how fast you can get there.

You can either touch or click where you want the veggie to drop. OR you can use arrow keys and space bar to move/drop the veggie.

Feedback is very much appreciated and welcomed. Thank you.

BTW: you can also play this now on your mobile device (in your browser). Not sure about iPhone though as I haven't tested it there. If you do try it on your iPhone please post and let me know.

Seems to work OK on iOS 17’s Safari browser on iPhone. I dropped some veggies...no time to learn how to really play! Can try more later.

I played it on casual for a bit.

LOOOOVE the little popping sounds! Very satisfying. Loved that I could move the veggies around in the bag with the veggie that was dropping. Never got to pumpkin, but I did get to eggplant. Then it started spinning and all the veggies popped out.

Only suggestion would maybe be able to see the next two veggies that are coming so I could plan. I liked dropping and making the peas flip onto another pea.

Thank you very much for your feedback.

Yes that physics thing (where they explode) is annoying. What is happening is an object is either fused with the other or there isn’t enough space so it goes bonkers. I’ve got support questions in with the team that makes the game engine I used. So far they really don’t know how to fix it :-(.

I’m still trying a few things. And it happens less often now than before.

It got glitchy when the bin was nearly full.

Fun!

Got this far before Firefox puked. So close to the pumpkin.

It does have a bug in Firefox, if you mute Windoze but then click back on the game, it unmutes Windoze. Probably some non-handling default in DeFold.
