Pool Panic

very cool game. I really liked it. although in life I do not play billiards, but I liked it. but it is not convenient to play on the keyboard and mouse, so people who do not have a gamepad in their pocket ;) will have a hard time. but let's just say that the curvature of the control not on the gamepad becomes more fun because the outcome of the blow is not unambiguous ))))

I am giving Pool Panic a thumbs up even if it wasn't for me. I do believe that there are going to be people out there that really love everything about it. The art style is really cute looking, the soundtrack is solid, and each level I played through felt unique and fresh but there were some issues that just made the game a little bit of a miss with me. The prospective of the camera can make for some levels feeling much harder than they should because you just can't quite aim at the thing you want to. Small spoiler for one example. The fight against the bulldozer had me feeling a little frustrated because I just couldn't get my shot lined up to hit the back end of the dozer for the last piece. At times the controls can feel like they are working against you, and maybe that had something to do with the game feeling a little floaty at times. Not the biggest thing in the world unless you are going for the time trophy for that stage, then it's just downright frustrating. My last gripe might just be me grumbling but trying to tackle each stage and get each trophy can feel like a nightmare. Some levels have added effects (like wind) or a tool you need to work with (like a crane) and going for the fastest time or finishing the level in only so many shots just felt like I couldn't do it unless I wanted to be frustrated while going for it. Now, some of you out there will really enjoy this because I can see it adding a ton of replayability for competitionest trying to tackle all the challenges. If you are on the fence about Pool Panic I would say go ahead and give it a try anyway. There will be people who can look past some of the issues Pool Panic has and get a ton of time and enjoyment out of it.
