About 87 Aftermath: A Rolling Ball Game
87 Aftermath is a peaceful and light-hearted rolling ball game with an ominous backstory. In the game, you assume the role of a nameless orbling and follow them as they wade through the challenges before them and work toward their ultimate goal - escaping from the ghoulish hellscape that once was a thriving futuristic Earth society, and returning home.
Features:
-Simple and responsive controls
-Incredibly fun physics-based movement (I've literally spent hours on the playground bonus level just messing around with physics objects - I promise, it's fun. Actually, that's probably why it took me so long to release this game...)
-40 challenging campaign levels increasing in difficulty as the game progresses
-Many bonus levels to unlock including a physics playground and several races (more coming soon!)
-Steam achievements
-Full support for keyboard+mouse or controller input
-Extensive customization and colorization features for the player character
-Built-in speedrun timers for the full game and each level
-Calm and relaxing music to help you avoid the realization that your planet was destroyed 2000 years ago
-A level of satisfaction you can achieve only through helping your relatable but expressionless spheroid friend navigate a hellish post-apocalyptic Earth and return home safely

✦ AI summary
Players appreciate the ball-rolling puzzle concept, customization options, and precise platforming mechanics, but find the execution underwhelming with inconsistent level design, underutilized mechanics that appear in only one or two levels, and uninspired visuals that don't justify the price. The most significant frustration is the lack of save functionality and no clear indication of completed levels, combined with various technical exploits like infinite wall jumping that undermine the intended challenge.
This is a game where you control a ball and guide it through a bunch of short levels trying to turn all gray tiles to orange. Let's look over some positives first: -Encouragement of customization -Bonus content -Idea that can be cleverly expanded upon Now, let's look at the negatives: -Inconsistent level difficulty -Inconsistent level quality -Some mechanics are only in 1 or 2 levels -Exploit where you can jump on a wall infinite times -Boring visuals Is this the worst game I've ever seen? No. But I don't think it's worth your $10. The developer seems to be a good guy, looking at some of their other products, and can put quality into their games. This game just doesn't seem it though. The idea can definitely be expanded on, and improved. I hope to see some quality games come from this developer. It seems like you will be updating the game. I will keep this game and make a new review when I think it has better quality.7 found this helpful

Pls Buy this game it has great graffix and good gameplay [REVIEW SPONSORED BY GOOBER PLAYS GAMES] play with goober's balls i guess idk man5 found this helpful
Sadly cant recommend this game despite many good things: +) Easy to get started: Roll over blue squares to make all of them red to complete the level. +) Good precision platforming +) Ball customization https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3333714385 +)10 first levels are opened right from start https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3333714440 +) Change POV as you want. +) Controller support Story is a bit unclear though: In 4129 the Zenith landed. What is Zenith? "87 Aftermath is the story of a nameless orbling" When and why did it came on Earth? Did it surive 2187 until 4129? Did it came with Zenith? What for? The reason I cant recommend this game is that it does not save gameplay and does not show you what levels are already completed. Why?1 found this helpful
