  • I liked the idea, very challenging levels though. The game did glitch out quite a few times and I was never able to get the desktop version running. Fren liked to vanish off the ball a lot too. But still really enjoyed what I could play!

A bit rough around the edges, but I really liked it! I love how ambitious it is, it feels like it could be a whole damn game because I love the idea of rolling around a huge hub world with things to discover..

If you're ever going to update it (I think there's a lot of potential!) here are my biggest requests

1. Reduce camera motion in levels please, the camera swings way too far that it's really hard to tell how fast you're going

2. It would be great if there's an indicator for which levels you finished and how much hair you collected in them

3. It feels a bit weird that moving platforms don't move you or affect your momentum

But yeah, this is fantastic for a game jam game!

I'm impressed how much you were able to get in this game and also feel like monkey ball! Even to the point that i ragequitted in the spinning rainbow bridge level.....

Nice job!

Love the katamari reference!!

The windows version doesn't work at all it just grey screens.

What I got to play was pretty great, like other people said, the windows version is not working so hopefully you can figure it out later.

I am garbage at monkey ball but I had fun with this, played probably the hardest level first lol, sadly I couldnt finish the game because it frozes for me on browser sometimes and I have to start from the beginning, also there was this one letter that requires you to jump over a portal, but even if it visually seemed like I didnt touch the portal at all, it would always send me to the level.

had a great time with this! the music is great, and the monkey ball levels are fun. the snowboarding level was hilarious, though i couldn't figure out how to get out of it (skated all the way to the bottom and it just restarts). got the miku hair and the level timed out, after that i got soft locked as i watched my monkey bald disappear into the abyss... but yeah awesome job, great game, thanks for making it! i hope joel plays it!

also the windows build didn't work so i had to play the web build. i dunno exactly what's happening but usually if Godot is having trouble loading resources in the exported build, i check for case sensitivity (the exported builds are more sensitive to that than the editor). here's what the console said: pastebin

I loved the katamari references and also the physics of the game. I hope Joel plays this.

My friend and I had a tough time with the levels! Both of us have little to no experience with Super Monkey Ball or Super Monkey Bald... Sweet game!

Ragdolls make every game better!

pretty neat! I liked all the references to other games. some of the levels are pretty tough, and maybe I just suck but I couldn’t stop the camera from clipping into objects in the monkey ball parts. but I liked exploring and rolling around and seeing all the crazy stuff you put in here, nice work!

Incredible tribute to so many other games!

Awesome game, only downside is that I got stuck on the jerma-boarding section, since reaching the UFO kept respawning me at the top for some reason. Also for Madclown55, saw you attempting the half pipe to donut leading onto the blender UV testing path level, just take it slow and you'll manage, good luck with the rest tho!

It's super impressive that you were able to implement this in the ~2weeks time!

How do you get past the rotating DNA bridge?

It's both fun and hard (with mouse and keyboard)

Hi, having problems with the download, the game just doesn't launch at all and hangs on a grey screen? The console.exe shows a bunch of stuff failing to either load or parse. The web build seems to run fine (it doesn't capture the mouse immediately but does after you talk to the skeleton). I don't know godot so I can't tell you guys anything else, but I figured I should let you know
