LaVonne's Bouncing Idle

LaVonne's games are good, well thought-out, and complete. Bouncing Idle is fun and I play it from time-to-time, and will try beat it to completion. Their other lemon game is OK, and if they made another game I'd play that too. Bouncing Idle I like better than the Lemon game, it's half decent. Worth checking out. 👍

The game is poorly balanced and has pay to win elements. The only way to progress is through the lab, which is a time mechanic. Most of the remaining upgrades are an illusion of choice.

LaVonne's Bouncing Idle is a casual incremental experience that turns a very simple idea into a steadily expanding spectacle of physics, destruction, and enormous numbers. Developed and published by LaVonne, it revolves around releasing balls into an enclosed play area where they bounce between surfaces, strike blocks, generate income, and gradually become more effective through upgrades. The premise is intentionally uncomplicated, making the game easy to understand within minutes, but its collection of progression mechanics gives players several reasons to keep checking back as their automated setup grows increasingly powerful. The central gameplay loop is built around kinetic damage. Balls repeatedly collide with blocks, and successful destruction produces money that can be invested into additional improvements. Early progression is relatively modest, with individual collisions and upgrades remaining easy to follow. As the player's setup expands, however, the screen becomes considerably busier. More balls, stronger attacks, faster movement, and increasingly durable targets turn what begins as a small physics simulation into a chaotic display of constant impacts. This escalation …

Utter trash. 30+ achievements in 15 minutes, "bosses" that are AI generated static images of random orc and goblins, no tutorial/onboarding, stuffed with microtransations.

This game has severe bugs, like the cost of upgrades skyrocketing after closing the game than coming back, probably something to do with offline gains but this game is unpolished and a waste of time for how much shenanigans there are to deal with.

Really unique idle game with bouncing ball mechanic. It's satisfying to look for bouncing ball destroy the blocks too. The upgrades makes more rewarding to achieve too to make the game loop more easier on the next levels. But it need more changing for the images to make it matched with the bouncing ball concept. But overall it's great!
