Keep your balls on the table for as long as possible.

Your balls are so heavy they will slant the table, causing all balls to roll towards the heaviest side.

So spread them wisely!!

I managed 199 on the first try. The way that you keep overshooting the balance is highly entertaining.

A very fun little ballance game. Well done.

Also saw a game called un stable, about horses :D. Anyway, I think my high score was 277. Add high scores in next jam!

UNS....TABLE!TABLE!TABLE! :laughing: Nice usage of the theme and I like how the concept is simple yet effective. Not sure why I can't vote for audio (maybe you didn't make the music?) because the music in this is SICK! Also.. Graphics: Powerpoint :thumbsup: :joy_cat:

@gus-the-shark, I mixed the music and sounds together but I did not make the samples myself. Which is why I decided to opt out. About 50% of my time went into the music mixing though xD hahahah feels a bit silly

I have to say, this is the first game where I've seen someone use Powerpoint for graphics haha

A fun small game with solid gameplay, that also sounds and looks nice. Fits the theme really well too! I have some difficulties with imagining how the table is skewed and it feels really difficult to get it rebalanced after the balls start sliding. Good job on the game! My best score was 288.

Nice music! And Powerpoint graphics for the win. 😂 I did have some difficulty understanding how the table tilting works. Would have been really good to have the table graphic indicate the tilt somehow.

:thumbsup: nice graphics i like the vibe.. i could not master the mechanics but its a fun little game :smiley:

I like the graphics here. Wish there was more of an indication of where the table is tipping, maybe a marker for the center of gravity or something. Nice job.

Since I can't see how tilted the table is, Im not sure if its behaving properly, I just had a feeling that after it tilted too much to one side I just couldn't fix it anymore by putting balls on the other side :)
The music is pretty nice!
EvoGenGamesauthor7 Oct 2021, 12:52
@barrier, I have done my tests for this since I sometimes also had this feeling. BUT all calculations should be correct. It is just that the momentum of the balls once the table is fully slanted, makes it difficult to come back from.

It's a bit mopping with the tap open. While you dropped a new ball on top of the highest side of the table, all other balls just moved that much closer to the lower side of the table and in the end the table did not budge :smile:

I hope despite the difficulty you still enjoyed? :smiley:

That was a clever idea. I think I would've enjoyed some kind of "table nudge" mechanism like in a pinball game. Not that it would've helped me, I'm terrible at these games :laughing: but I think the extra interaction would've made it even more fun. All in all, a nice game. Well done!

Interesting concept, and great music! Kept me occupied for a little while :D good job!

Yes! We had this title in our heads too but chose something else. Good to see someone actually made this title!!

Cool idea, simple to understand, unsure what else you could do to improve really, perhaps some more feedback to the player but that is more grasping at straws. overall well done.

Really interesting and simple concept. I like the graphics and the mood a lot. Great way to make a simple concept visually interesting and engaging. Interesting and humourous interpretation of the theme too.

Nice physics based game. Reminds me of when my cat used to knock things off the table for the fun of it.

the center of gravity of the table and the time it takes for the balls to lose momentum is weird to understand at first but i think i mamaged to get a decent score at almost 300 :)

This game took me some time to figure it out, but in general it was a fun little experience.

Interesting idea, although it felt a bit unintuitive. I managed to find the center of the table, though. I still have the game running, right now I'm at about 3000 points. :imp:
