Quick Look: Pool Panic

I bet Dan pees in the pool.

P.S. This game looks great! Good pick guys.

This game got style. I like the look

The ability not to zoom out sounds problematic

Oh man, this game is obnoxious in the best way.

This game made a very strong first impression but it seems like you have no camera control at all and that seems super aggravating. No denying it's visual style but as a puzzle game it seems like you just don't have enough control over the camera for this to be a really fun experience.

Like the game's isometric view actually makes it hard to see if you are going to make the shot or not. Here it would have been nice to at least have the option to switch to a top down view or be able to rotate the camera. But the developer clearly went with a very specific look and a locked camera no matter what. It just seems like a neat looking puzzle game with a frustrating camera sadly.

Not sure if I'd like actually playing this, but it sure looks great.

Great Quick Look! The game seems neat on visuals and gameplay mechanics, it's a shame there's no way to zoom out the camera, but it's not a huge problem. The versus mode also seems fun, wouldn't mind watching them play it a bit more on UPF with four players.

@janman Hey, might want to take a look at that deck, or not, no biggie.

*Update* We good!

Cute game with frustrating mechanics, that's going to be a hard no for me dawg...

I was super put off by the style and feel of this game. The gameplay seems like it could be cool but the lack of camera control seems like a problem.

Man, that style and that jaunty music. I just want a dynamic theme of this game or something.

This game has styyyyyyyyyyyyyyyle

Damn, trying to line up a shot on a moving ball when you also can't zoom out to see where you are hitting sounds STRESSFUL

Looks annoying to actually play, but I love everything else about it.

I don't see what people like about thus especiakl y after having played it it's like a flash game in terms of gameplay but with worse controls somehow

i dont think i wanna play this game, but this QL still owns and the devs have nailed the humor

dang. was looking forward to this since the direct that announced this. it's got the best look and music/sound, but controls are off putting. looks to be another game i'll happily watch others play but never touch.

I'm going to mirrow mostly everyone else's opinion here: The game does look great, but it just doesn't seem fun to play. Why you can't zoom out in this is beyond me.

@redpandagamer: Thats what the lock on is for.

some top tier out of context voice clips on parade here

People seem hung up on the "no zooming out" thing and as someone who has beaten the game, its really a non issue once you've been playing it for awhile. The white lines from the balls turn yellow when they'll hit another ball or go into the holes and that's to be used on your tell of where the ball will go. Most of the levels are small enough that the whole level is all on screen already and if it isn't you're meant to walk around and explore the levels gimmick like that shoot out one. Speaking of gimmicks, a lot of the later levels either have frustratingly annoying gimmicks or fun quick ones. If you don't want to buy it now, i'd say wait for it to go on sale.

They should’ve called this game “billiard bollocks” or something.

Well, buying this immediately.

This game has got some serious style, no doubt about that.

The premise and look of this game is excellent. However, the controls look to be frustrating. Also, it's a no-sell for me when you can't zoom out the playing field or have an arrow indicating where the holes are.

I'm really liking this game's s style, Adult Swim can publish some good ass games.

This game looks amazing. Wow.

Nice style, bad camera / gameplay

Style reminds me of this music video, the artist did similar artwork for Vans stores at one point, maybe more, so I wonder if he/she is here as well.

this looks like an adult swim ass adult swim game
