Hello, a really nice platformer! I managed to get a D rang in my first try although I did take some more risky paths. I though the controls are a bit heavy and the jump too high - at least I felt that on some points I jumped super high and on the others not that much - maybe it has something to do with the slope or speed - idk. I also liked the explosion when you fall from the course, it reminded me of Zelda Windwaker.
Also, an interesting choice to program in unreal engine, respect!
Wow, amazing game!!!!!
Reminds me of a game from way back called Marble Madness. Played yours several times but couldn't get more than two minutes out of it. Art looks good. Music wasn't hurting my ears. Gameplay was intuitive. The only issue I had was one time the pool cue knocked me off the board and I didn't die. Just kept falling into the gray haze.
Saw your post in the "very long rate for rate" thread. My downloadable game is having the same issue of low ratings. Hopefully I can get you to try it by rating your game now.

The art in this game stands out the most to me. Very good job on that. The main menu/opening scene was chefs kiss lol. For the gameplay, pretty enjoyed this one! Not too much and not too little. Simple, yet enjoyable. Overall, you guys did pretty well for a week-long jam! Nice work!
I really like your visual style and level design, and the music is well-chosen too. Due to the ball's rapid acceleration, the game feels quite challenging. Perhaps it could be made a bit slower?
I really like how the movement feels tricky, especially the jump — it makes jumping feel risky to use, which fits the theme well. The only issue is that sometimes the jump goes way too high.
really liked the casino astatic with all the gambling machines and the pool tables. And there is a great opening screen is impressive.
The gameplay itself is simple, but fun and reactive.
Good job
The whole casino aesthetic is SO up my alley. Great job on this, I had a good time! The art was super cool!
Good job! I like it :)
Quite enjoyed the theme and visuals of this! Found it challenging and risky to get the higher stake chips
i really loved it and how you implemented it as a ball on that rolling gamble thing, game reminds me of Balance the old game i used to enjoy alot, i felt that same vibe from this game and it was really cool how you implemented it into the theme, Great submission.
Wondered why the game file was so big for a Jam game and then I played it. Visuals were stunning!! Really fun game, the Casino theme was spot on! The start menu art is really good too. Good job! 🤗
Yeah maybe its a little big XD, glad you liked it!
Very Fun Game! Challenging and the casino theme is great ^^
Thank you!
The casino theming was fun on this. Casino levels are always the best! :)
They are always the best! Thanks for playing!
The art for the cover/main screen/startup bit are so good. Solid Monkeyball style game, could use a volume slider though!
Yeah the volume is a little bit high, thanks for playing!
Cool game
This was pretty fun! :) I thought the level design was pretty well done and I appreciated you guys taking the time to develop multiple obstacles (darts, billiard balls, moving platforms, etc.). It kept the game feeling fresh.
I felt this game really nailed the theme cuz I found myself consistently wanting to risk my life to get a fair amount of chips that probably weren't worth risking a life over haha.
After multiple attempts, I got an 'E' rating. 'E' for "Excellent", I presume? Don't correct me on that :D
Awesome job, overall!
Thanks for playing and for the feedback!
I really enjoyed this! It really worked with the theme both gameplay wize and thematically!
Thank you!
This was fun! I've always been bad at Monkey Ball style games, but it definitely felt like I was playing one XD
Glad you liked it!
Good art and captivating gameplay.
Thank you!
