So good I was sad the ball dint keep geting bigger every win
I found an intresting glitch. if you buy 3 anti grav balls, and don't move them, they make infinite money. you can buy more of these balls in twos, but don't move them or buy another kind. if you buy over 9 balls then it will just break aswell. sooooo, if you want to cheese the game, do this, or if u are the dev, then maybe fix this?
Edit: you also have to buy the grav balls right after one another i think, or maybe it just doesn't always work
ReEdit: nvm, just buy the third bounce upgrade and hope
I feel like the moment you get 1 zero gravity ball, the game becomes a lot easier i would nerf it like the ball gets a certain amount of zero g time,e like 10 or 20 seconds, and when there's no more zero g, it just falls and acts like a normal ball and repeats but that might be too big of a nerf so idk
the game is perfect except for one thing, i beg you to add some sort of time stop storage area off to the side so it is possible to stop the balls and set them up in a specific pattern, or just remove them and stop them from interrupting a setup you have.
I just learned it dosent save :(
Just finished a run, im already hooked, help also imagine custom balls or fanmade balls lol like baller ball or something like that
don't understand anything.
It doesn't make you want to go any further at all.
wont let me play
oh no! what platform are you on, and does the game fail to load or does it crash? maybe i can fix it
I'm on chrome and it just fails to load
The game is fun for a short time.
However … with the current prestige system the other balls apart from the starting ball become obsolete quite soon … as do the upgrades.
If you want to keep exponential growth, you might consider using a smaller base like 1.1 or 1.2 instead of 2.
Here are a few ideas for (prestige) upgrades—in case you find a good way to keep the other balls and upgrades interesting:
You could also add different perimeters. E.g. start with a triangle and after every prestige add another corner …
thank you for the feedback :] i definitely think there's potential to keep the game exciting over a longer period of time, and your suggestions help give me some starting points for experimentation!
Another idea: Balls inside balls
You could use a smaller version of the first perimeter and all the balls inside as the new starting ball after prestige. (This was probably done somewhere before already.)
It could be fun to watch, but regarding graphical processing power and points generation this would get out of hand very quickly …
So you would have to limit it to maybe 1 or 2 "inception" levels and scale up the costs of upgrades and balls after every prestige or reduce the point generated by the smaller balls.
This would be even more interesting with more variety of "builds", i.e. more types of balls and upgrades that do not necessarily have to be maxed or bought at all.
For the player this could require a bit more planning ahead, which might lead to a more involved gaming experience—or frustration.
63 levels appears to be about as deep as you can go :)
u hit the integer overflow!!! congrats haha
I somehow got to 64 …

Maybe using an autoclicker for the upgrades+prestige has something to do with not always starting at 0 after prestige.
An option for "buy max" or a "max all" button/key would be nice after a few prestiges.
Funny little Bouncers :p
32 prestiges!!!! insane!!!
HAHA i was wondering how crazy the numbers would get with the exponential prestiges, thank you for showing me!!! ...perhaps i could do with some scientific notation, though i do kind of love seeing the numbers break the UI itself
Had me hooked for half an hour, great game.
fun!
a lil bit attracted..
oo perfectly elastic bounces !!!!!
this is a really interesting game, i'd love to see it updated with some more things (more prestige system, permanent upgrades, maybe even helpers to flick stagnant balls??)
fun game !!
thank you for your feedback!! i'd definitely like to update it if there's interest :]
boing boing
pop pop!!
STOP POSTING ABOUT BALLER, I'M TIRED OF SEEING I
LMAOOOO UR SO RIGHT
big W
thank you for playing :D congrats on finishing a run
i love it!!
hope to see more work from you
thank you for playing!!
The popping sound feels so pleasant, and this work is fun for both the eyes and ears! The fact that it also has replay elements is nice. When I play using only the zero-gravity ball and the initial ball without the normal ball, it is the most relaxing experience. This game has a relaxing effect! ๐
my playthrough
thank you for playing! i'm so happy you enjoyed the game, and i really loved watching your video!
the auto translate was so helpful: when you said "็ใๅนๆใใใใใพใใง8ๆ้ใงไฝใใใใใฎใฝใใใ็งใฎ็ฒพ็ฅใใใใ็ใใฆใใใใ" my heart was warmed!!
I like this. I think it cured my headache
happy to help!! :D
