Hazard Ball 1.0

Hazard Ball is a real-time arcade puzzle game for any age group. The game's objective is to guide the ball to the exit, but this is much harder than it sounds!

You find your fate as a ball stuck in a labyrinth realm in which you need to guide yourself with the mouse, keyboard, or joystick, in four directions (north, east, south, west). The inertia of the ball has a very realistic feel to it and gains speed as it moves. The ball will bounce when it hits obstacles, lose energy when caught in a hazard or die when it falls off the platform.

The 5 worlds are packed with challenging puzzles and hazards such as: speed arrows, ramps, breakable floor tiles, fans, magnets, pipes, jump pads, pressure pads, teleporters, and much much more! The ball can collect helpful items to avoid death and solve puzzles. Items such as regenerators to rescue the ball when its falling, coloured keys to open gates, construction blocks to build over holes and bomb detonators to arm bombs. There are also elemental protections to help the ball past elemental hazards such as explosions, water, poison thorns and much much more!

Also featured is a two-player mode where you can choose to play a battle or a co-operative game! And the game level editor which will add extra hours of fun.

Hazard Ball requires skill and patience, have you got the balls?
