Ballmaster - Demo

Version: 1.1.22 days ago

What is Ballmaster?

Well it's a callback to older arcade games we don't see much today. 
You take control of Ballmyr, a pure-hearted knight of Ballencia. He was sent out under the order of King Ball to do some nasty work to innocent people. As he returned, King Ball ordered his execution! Betrayed, Ballmyr had no means to run because he followed his King. Unknown in the shadows, Death Ball was watching.

It was the perfect timing for Ballmyr, because his soul was both pure and corrupt, so Death Ball gave him a challenge for his soul only known to God and Death Ball, the Challenge of Ballmaster!

If Ballmyr can roll his way out of Purgatory, up through Hell and all the way to Heaven to plea to God Ball himself, God Ball will award him the title of Ballmaster and his new chance at life.

Simple right? Well there are 3 ways to get him to the finish line.

Relax mode has the "just finish the game" mentality. You don't need to rely on any simple gimmicks like a counting timer or points system. Play, pause, come back and try again later. No fear of any system fighting back at you.

Countdown mode has a timer ticking down every second. You have to find hourglasses to refill time, but let it reach below 0 and it's OOPS TRY AGAIN.

Points mode is just like the name suggests, points based. Find point balls to raise your score, but UH-OH, every death will take you down a chunk. Don't let the points reach the negatives or it's lights out for you!

What is the gameplay?

Well, you roll. There is no jump button, crazy missles shooting out of your ball, none of that. Just WASD or Joystick. 

Well that isn't exciting. Well that's where all the different in-world gameplay elements come in.

Checkpoints, Tubes, Elevators, Moving Platforms, Spikes, Wall-Pushers, Spinners, Fan Blades and Laser Fan Blades,  Rails, Ball Minimizer, Cannons, Arrow Shooters, Pitfalls, Glowball, Death Hourglasses/Balls, Speedpads, and MANY MORE.

The first 10 levels act as a tutorial, a little slow and easy but once you reach Hell all that you've learned become dialed up to 11! Once you reach the Caves and so forth even new gameplay mechanics come into play.

Ballmaster has, 100 Floors, 10 Unique Level Themes. Each with their own Musical Scores.

In Ballmaster you will experience the locations of Purgatory, Hell, Caves, Catacombs Graveyard, Forest, Ballencia City, King's Castle, Mountains, and Heaven. 

Each floor within them are handcrafted and themed appropriately. Expect lots of lava deaths in Hell, pitch black settings in Caves and homes to explore in Ballencia.

Ballmyr can also be beautified with 50 different Ball Skins!

You can totally change the look of Ballmyr by the 10 default unlocked Ball Skins, and uncover 40 more throughout the world. I believe defining your look improves overall gameplay experiences. Finding unlockables is also a rewarding feeling.
