I started game maker under the File Cracker account, long since banned as a double account to this. Me and my cousin build a quick little game, called FallingBalls with our limited GM experience. I have since remade it with a much more fluid gameplay. Its called Falling II.

Play throught 6 finished levels (soon to be expanded to 10) of kinetic hell, where dodge balls are deadly and mercy is a sick joke. Corners may seem safe, for a little while.

I know its not that great, I spent like 4-5 hours on it max.

The premise behind the game is actually pretty good. So +1 for a good idea.

The game just needs cleaning up... and dressing up.

1. better looking character
2. smoother movement
3. background / scenery changes every few levels
4. sounds / music

You might also consider adding some new gameplay features, such as occasionally mixing in a few balls that you catch (instead of dodge) for power ups. Or have occasional "safe zones" you can briefly hide under. Or add some terrain features you have to jump/climb over while you're dodging.

But this is the start of a good game. It just needs polish.

Oh thanks for your comment and I will take everything you have said into consideration. I like your mod ideas and I think I'd be very beneficial to it um I like your terain ideas and everything. After some polish would you consider a decent mobile game?


Edit: I added speed up and down power up/down.

It is somewhat fun. Needs smoother jumping, tho. ANd I don't really understand, how do you advance a level? It seems to happen quite at random.
