Ball Drop: A Fast-Paced Puzzle Platformer
Ball Drop is a single-player puzzle platformer game developed by Puffin Forest. The game is set in a minimalist gear and cog aesthetic and consists of fast-paced action. The main objective of the game is to guide a ball to the goal line using platforms and broken cogs while avoiding hazards. The game features eight levels, which are not level-locked, allowing players to navigate to any level they want.
To play the game, you must use the mouse to move platforms to guide the ball to its destination. The objects in the game rotate following the mouse, and you can use them to solve puzzles and navigate around hazards. The game is relatively short, taking about an hour to beat, and does not feature any items or leveling-ups; instead, it offers simple puzzle solving.
Ball Drop is an excellent practice project for Puffin Forest to learn Steam and game design. The game is perfect for players who love puzzle platformers and want to spend a relaxing afternoon playing a game that challenges their skills. Feedback is appreciated, and it is evident that Puffin Forest has put a lot of effort into this game.
