Backwards Pool

This is the Web version of my GMTK Game Jam 2025 Submission! It doesn't look as good as the downloadable version, so this ones... not the submission. :P.

Anyways

Loop is, of course, "Pool", spelled backwards. So this game is Pool, but played backwards to match!

How to Play:
Each level, a pool shot will be made. Using your mouse, your job is to drag the markers to where you think the pool balls were BEFORE the shot was made.

This is a daunting task, but don't worry! There are a couple tools at your disposal!

The Cue Path
The full path the Cue ball took will be made available to you! It is a white dashed line that is animated in the direction the ball is traveling.

The Timeline
The timeline at the top of the screen has 3 hints available to you. Clicking on one will show you an additional 25% of each ball's path that it's taken throughout the shot. Once you've clicked on a hint, you've permanently lost the previous score modifier for the level, so think carefully
