    I play with my balls constantly, even when I'm at work. It feels great but It makes the people around you uncomfortable to say the least.
    Oh, its a game called "The Ball". Nevermind.

    @NekuSakuraba: To be fair its a niche game that's only on steam. Try again in a couple months.

    You gotta loosen those purse strings dude. Its 20 dollars. That's impulse purchase territory. Just blind buy if you're so interested.

    I'm considering getting it, still debating though its not expensive at all and seems like something different.

    Not too sure, but I can say this game seems like prime steam sale material, so if you aren't too hard pressed to get it now, maybe wait until the holidays roll around again.
     
    Such a time of magic on Steam.

    @NekuSakuraba: I actually got it, and am currently playing it, it's not super great. 
     
    It's mostly just really plain, the whole ball mechanic is not really used in any kind of interesting way and most of the "puzzles" consist of finding a button and touching it with either said ball or yourself. 
     
    To be honest the main difficulty has been trying to figure out the problem rather than the solution, I'll see a big old obvious button and hit it, then try to figure out what door it opened or what it did.

    I do not have it. I am curious about it, though. I'd try it, myself, but my computer is far from being able to run that on even the minimum settings.

    That is perhaps the most English sounding review I've ever read. 
     
    Also: No, mate. Any time Five Live, M25 and rushhour appear in one sentence, it does not bode well.

    If you don't mind me advertising myself, I just finished a Let's Play of The Ball, you can judge for yourself how good it is. Personally, I liked most of the puzzles, but I could have done without the combat. :P
