The Ball
Game » consists of 3 releases. Released Oct 26, 2010
The Ball is an indie game developed by Teotl Studios on Unreal Engine 3. It features the player solving puzzles and killing enemies using a large, ancient artifact known only as 'the Ball'.
Anyone got it?
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. "But seriously, someone should have gotten it!
" You gotta loosen those purse strings dude. Its 20 dollars. That's impulse purchase territory. Just blind buy if you're so interested. "I suppose you're right...
Or are you? I don't even know. -__-

Review on eurogamer.
Now I have to figure if it will go on Steam sale.
"The Ball is about as much fun as Five Live on the M25 in rushhour "
What the fuck does that even mean? it sounds like a good thing, right?
I'm considering getting it, still debating though its not expensive at all and seems like something different.
" I had it, but then I dropped it. "I both love and hate this comment so damn much...
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.
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.
@NekuSakuraba: I actually got it, and am currently playing it, it's not super great.What is good about it?

" "The Ball is about as much fun as Five Live on the M25 in rushhour " What the fuck does that even mean? it sounds like a good thing, right? "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.
