I had thought that also at first glance. I think it's because the walls are lacking any detail in the filled partI like the animation.
Edit: something about the dimensions has me thinking it's a side scroller every time I look at the GIF. Maybe it's just the lack of details in the room. To be seen..

He needs a rounder shadow. With this top down view, the shadow on the ground would almost appear as a circle, but here it's a sliver. Combined with the (common and excusable) stylized side-on perspective of the character himself, it really does feel like a platformer at first glance.I had thought that also at first glance.

As Canadian I would think a stick and puck is in order.Very impressive, dude. I love how the enemies can steal your head, that's fantastic.
I do sort of take issue with the enemies bowling the soccer ball heads like a bowling ball though
Have you considered having them dribble the ball with their feet and kicking it at you?
Oh, you could also have basketball enemies that bounce their basketball heads!
Those gifs show a lot of promise, the last one gives me hopes for cool puzzles and stuff. Nice work, dude.
Thanks very much. Loads of hurdles really. What seems to work for me is letting go of my original ideas, and just running with anything simple that works. If I get stuck on something for more than 40 minutes or so I ditch it and make do with a simpler effect instead. I was aiming to make a mystical game about sheep herding but I’ve got one about throwing a ball.Looks great! The walls and details finally allow me to see it as a top-down game. I can't believe you did this in such a short time. Any hurdles you had to face
Thanks, that’s really encouraging!Yes the walls help a lot with perspective.
I’ve always liked your games. They are always interesting and have unique art style.
Can’t remeber the names. The shadow people. The others reminded me of Eric Carle style illustrations.
Sadly you need a pc. You may be able to use a VM like parralels although I've never tried It...Hmmm. Can I build for Windows if I only have a Mac? I presumed not but I don’t know.
Download the developers evaluation version, and use either Virtual Box (free) or Parralels. That Windows version should include everything to build the Windows version.You can dual boot windows on a Mac using the built in Bootcamp app. You of course need a windows 10 license.
Yeah we come from a world of apple. It was a bit of adjustment to the windows world here.Hmmm. Can I build for Windows if I only have a Mac? I presumed not but I don’t know.
Didn't realize that was a thing, only just got my first Mac device 2 weeks ago, using Windows 7 32-bit on it as I had a key from years ago laying around. Good find. Still primarily use Windows on it, as it's an old Macbook so Apple removed support from it ages ago, but still has decent Windows support.Download the developers evaluation version, and use either Virtual Box (free) or Parralels. That Windows version should include everything to build the Windows version.
