RaBG is a game where you are a ball asking help from a greater force!

This was our first ever gamejam game and also our first time working with Godot.

What a fun mechanic! This is one of the best games I've seen simply because of how well it sticks to the theme. I feel some aspects of the gameplay could be improved, the ball for me is simply too floaty, but the text box mechanic to take away and add aspects of the game is so cool.

Great job keeping with the theme! This is the most on-theme game I've played so far and I really enjoyed typing to create the world. It added a level of discovery and was fun to see what was coming next.

Music was really good once I found it and I think this concept has potential to be something greater if given more time and puzzles through the key word system.

Awesome for a first game jam!

This game is amazing and thoroughly entertaining, this definitely was with the theme! I really liked this game, apart from some audio that could be added, this game was perfect! Overall, this is an amazing jam entry!

Innovative gameplay. I haven't played a game like this before. The humor part in this game is also good. I really enjoyed the game. But initially if struggled since i dont know that i will get new set of instruction, story by repeatedly typing help in command.

More options please. The game idea is brilliant! Thank you for making this game. It was inspiring! Please improve and publish this game after the game jam.

Very cool game! An interesting interpretation of the concept. I really liked the text adventure feel combined with the visuals. Very creative. I couldn't get the music to play in my browser - I assume it worked in the desktop versions.

Such a nice game! When it went 3d that was cool. Love the idea of adding things as you go, such a well made entry!

That was really neat. I enjoy adding pieces to the game as you go, and I really enjoyed the gameplay too!

That was nice, but having to type help so much time was quickly annoying >

Interesting idea, I enjoyed watching the world build as I played. Agree with @hellper that I grew a bit wary of typing "help" over and over again.

This is great! a really interesting idea, add some story and work in it!! There's great potential in this game. You did an amazing job!

This is great, especially once i figured out all feature toggles are separate, like turning of gravity.

Great job!
