Hi everyone — I’m Ren, helping document and review the interaction design of Coreball, a small browser game built around a single action: launch a pin into a rotating core without colliding with the pins already attached.
The game is playable here: https://coreball.gg/
What I’m specifically trying to evaluate is whether the timing window feels readable rather than arbitrary. The early stages keep the rotation easy to follow, while later patterns ask the player to anticipate spacing and rotation changes. There is no install or account requirement, so a complete playtest can be very short.
I would especially appreciate feedback on three points:
Does the first click make the rule immediately clear?
When a shot fails, does the collision feel understandable and fair?
Is the restart loop quick enough to encourage another attempt?
I’m also interested in how it feels on touch versus mouse input, because a one-button game can expose even small differences in response and visual feedback. Thanks to anyone who gives it a try.
