The corners of the paddle would do it, but it is really easy to miss, and they also glitch out a little. This may be your elements moving too fast for you collision code. One suggestion is to alter the balls trajectory more the closer to the edge that you hit it. If you hit the ball centre, it stays on course. If you hit closer to the edge, it will bounce more in the direction of that edge. Another method (one I used in my game this year, Beat Bricks) is to alter the direction based on the speed of the paddle when it hits the ball. The faster it is moving, the more the ball deflects in that direction. You also had some issues with the two paddles overlapping each other.",

"message": "It would be nice if the movements happened faster... it seems to lag. It plays like a puzzle game in that you can't outrun the monsters but have to think around them. As a puzzle game it would make more sense to restart the level when you hit a monster instead of losing a life it makes it more satisfying to solve it properly rather than have the option of losing a life to power through. Unfortunately since the levels are randomly generated there is not always an ideal solution so it is unsatisfying in that way. If you don't want it to be a puzzle game you need to give the cat more speed than the monsters or a way to defeat them.",

The tips and descriptions are also concise and well worded so playing this through is a breeze, from the first time. The sounds also make it feel nice and reactive. If you are to develop this, I would love seeing more background elements and see more of the journey side of things! I also think the drag-and-drop creates a sort of uneven pace, but I feel like that was probably a convenient approach for the size constraint. This would be great for mobile.",

It's a little hard at first, maybe one way to make the game more easy to approach would be to have a visual cue when you reach the top of your jump?

I'm sure you'll get lots of positive feedback from everyone so I'll give you a few negatives (even though I really like the game):\n- the graphics could be improved a lot: the character is too simple, it could be animated, its legs are disjointed when flipping (you can see the distinction between two lines), you cannot see the character past a certain height, there could be a parallax background, the resolution could be increased, the trampoline could be animated much more nicely (currently it's only moving up and down, it'd be nicer if it was a curve, maybe if you could see the waves when hitting it)...\n- the game doesn't scale really well. At some point I reached a height at which I could just not fail anymore. It became super easy to flip and then I had several seconds to adjust to make sure I landed perfectly\n- sound effects would be nice\n\nOverall a really good game, but more polish would have been nice, given that it probably doesn't use the whole 13kb",

"message": "This game is actually quite a cool concept, but is a little frustrating to play. I'd suggest a few tweaks:\n\n- Enlarge the graphics (scale up) so it's easier to see.\n- Give the player more time to adjust to the controls -- for the first 10 seconds you can't move so you don't know if the game even works, then suddenly you have 3 seconds before you're dead.\n- Make the robot slightly slower, or add some kind of mapping hints to indicate the bot is \"looping around\" - it moves so fast that if you explore into it it's impossible to escape.\n\nGood job!",
