A little game about collecting items and jumping platforms. In this game you control a ball that can climb walls for brief moments or roll at high speeds to jump off ramps. The main goal is to collect all the icons in order to open the path to the exit. The controls are always displayed on screen and there are some hints along the first level. There is a password option, but the progress is saved automatically as well. Requires Flash Player 10 to play correctly.

This game was pretty intriguing. The best part about it was probably the music. The thing is, it was pretty hard for me to figure it out. Then again, it was just fun in its own right. You had a lot of freedom to do a lot of stuff. It was a really easy going game.

There's just so much space it's hard to get frustrated with it. You can really just play around with it. I didn't advance much, but it was fun. It's more complicated than you would think. It's just a nice little game.

Needs work

I have to start about the music... what in gods name was that?? You "composed" that your self didn't you? Next time just use some ambient stuff from NG libraries.

This also seems like an incomplete game. The graphics could be a lot better, the physics need a little tweaking and you could move the camera away a little so I can see where I am going.
You have a good start, don't give up.

great idea but too fucking tedious

It got really unbearable to climb the same wall a thousand times just because i kept falling down somewhere. either make it harder to fall 10 stories or easier to get back up (i realize thats what the teleport was for but still gotta be easier). also, bug: the first time i fell into the pit on the second level i got transported to another, much harder level (couldn't tell you which one cause i never got past the second level).
but i really like the concept.

I'll be checking that bug.

Error?

Got the following error when trying to play:

Other than that, decent game though.

DallenaD responds:

That started to occur randomly since the time I put that Newgrounds logo at the title screen. I'll be taking it out if it keeps giving trouble.

Thanks!

epic

but seriously it was hard, even in easy mode!!!

DallenaD responds:

OK, this game had a different aim during development, so even when I tried to lower the difficulty it seems like it wasn't enough... I'll try to make another one with easier levels and a slower progress.

Glad you like it!
