Is there actually anything to do as the player?

I was thinking of the multiplayer marble race games that streamers sometimes stream where their viewers participate, get allocated a ball, and then the streamers commentates but all everyone can do is watch. It’s chill and fun. In that case you would have been assigned a ball and your name would be attached to it. I didn’t get that far. I realised after submission that to make you feel more engaged it would have been good to require you to choose a ball before the race starts would then give you a ball to cheer on which would have been more engaging, but I ran out of time. So, as it is, you just spectate a race.

I saw your posts on Discord and was wondering what you'd end up with. I'm not sure qualifies as a game, but at least it's pretty! The shading (lack of shadows?) makes it a bit hard to understand the topology of the terrain.

Someone called it a toy. I felt like that was an appropriate classification. :)

Great song choice, and really enjoyed how some of the events are timed to the music.
