Penduloom

"Never send to know for whom the pendulums swing; they swing for thee..."

Description

The goal in Penduloom is to release drops into the goal located at the bottom of the screen. There are pendulums swinging in an attempt to block the drop on its ride down. As you progress, more pendulums appear for a harder difficulty. You'll need excellent timing to get a score worthy or the leaderboards.

History

Penduloom started out as a really rough tapping game I wrote in a day while on vacation at my parents' house. I had been working on Vector previously and was getting worn out from all its complexities. Penduloom was just something I made to relax my brain a bit and have something fun I could mess around with.

Originally there was no swinging. Just little balls that moved back and forth across the screen trying to keep your drops from hitting the goal. After playing around with a logo I decided pendulums would be an interesting obstacle.
