Interesting concept and execution of a physics based puzzle/challenge game but I still find it enjoyable.

Why would you want to control your character in a platformer? Thats clearly too much to ask. Getting stuck against walls and not being able to move forward or backwards is great as well.

Neat control scheme and chill vibes while you scream at ball. Camera a bit of an issue, especially in the spiral mountain stage

what if a ball game wasn't any fun
Recommended Dec 22, 2024
Definitely a rage game lol. Trying to build momentum and to get the ball rolling in a straight line is frustrating. The screen itself is not your friend either, as it scrolls it scrolls your cursor too. So trying to stop the ball as the screen is moving is a pain in the butt unless you move your cursor against the direction the screen is scrolling. If the ball rolls off its back to the start of the stage and there is a lot of jumping to maneuver in later levels. If you are looking for a rage game this is a good one
Not recommended Dec 17, 2024
Certainly a cool idea for people who can work with it, it was a pain for me to move the ball and i couldn't even confidently beat the first few levels.
