Anyway, like I said, fun physics to play with that reminded me of pool. Shame there's no negative result to using too many marbles, and the skybox was a bit wonky."},{"author_name":"Deadlyapps","author_uid":"22933","time":"Apr 29, 2013 @ 5:27am","epoch":1367212920,"text":"fits the theme pretty well.

I think you need to shuffle your cube map faces so that the cube edges match up. It really wouldn't take much work at all to turn it into a two-player game. You shouldn't start looking into code up network multiplayer support - that'd be cool. Well done anyway. :)"},{"author_name":"Norritt42","author_uid":"22594","time":"Apr 29, 2013 @ 8:08pm","epoch":1367265780,"text":"Well animated.
