MonoRoll by SoumyaXeored

[raw]
made by SoumyaXeored for LD28 (COMPO)
Hi! This is my first interaction with Ludum Dare. I hope MonoRoll will please you. Here, a ball rolls down a slope and there are obstacles in the way. You have only 1 Life, if you stop, the game will start over :)
The obstacles are procedurally generated, so the obstacles are different everytime you play it.
Have fun!

Good 3d puzzle game. I enjoyed the rolling mechanic and the help text as part of the game is a nice idea. The lower walls looked a bit too much like high walls and maybe we should be able to roll along walls for a while instead of dying. Well done! (My game also uses procedural generation)

neat little game. Very difficult though! I wish I had a score

Very cool concept, I just wish there was some kind of score at the end to tell me how far I got. I finally got the hang of it and was going along very smoothly then I got hit with the ultimate combination: a wall with a hole on the far right then a wall with a hole on the far left. That combo sent me into a right/left/right tailspin that I never recovered from.

Thanks for your suggestions! Yea unfortunately I forgot to make a score system :(
(Pro tip : the more you move the faster you go) :)

It was pretty fun once I figure out how to play. I honestly didn't even notice there was a ball I was controlling until about 5 deaths because the color of the ball was so similar to the background. I think it would help a lot if the ball stood out more. Once you make one mistake its pretty dang hard to recover. Its pretty unforgiving. I also wish I could see a little bit more of what was coming up so that I could avoid overcompensating the next obstacle and then not be able to recover for the one coming up after. Pretty fun overall though.

Pretty difficult, momentum of ball is big, so it's have to be very careful with movings. Anyway it was to fun play this game.

Death is too quick once you hit a wall. Graphics are certainly alright.

Welcome to Ludum Dare! I always like this kind of game and you definitely added some challenge to the usual formula. I wish the ball was easier to see (it took several times before I even knew there was a ball). Keep it up, I'm looking forward to seeing more games from you.
