My only wish was there was an AI, honestly even one that placed a block at the top randomly would have been fun. Or even a challenge mode where it placed two randomly and you had to get there.
Either way, it's a good concept and I hope it gets a bit more love.
Actually I remember the date of Ludum Dare wrongly, so when I know it has begun there's only 8 hours left. Therefore I made this all in a rush and its really imcomplete. I'll add an AI and domore polish after LD is over and re-upload it. :D
The balls were too bouncy for any real strategy to form as is. With the ball being able to be placed anywhere, the whole board just explodes into a chaotic mess. With some physics fine tuning and restrictions on ball placement, I can see this being an enjoyable strategy multiplayer game!
Good job overall!
