About the Game

BallMan is a smiley round creature who likes to spend its days rolling around the world.

But suddenly, during the year 1994, something weird happened and several bad creatures called BadBalls appeared, messing up BallMan's life. Make BallMan's world free again!

Guide it through 7 different levels, such caves, countryside and more, helping it clean up its world while enjoying the awesome old school MIDI soundtrack and the funny animations!

Challenge yourself and the other players making the highest score on the scoreboard!

This is a real arcade game where you have to insert coins to play!

...of course you don't have to actually insert coins into your PC :) Read the control list below for further information.

Default controls:

  • Up arrow -> Climb ladder up, look upwards

  • Down arrow -> Climb ladder down, look downwards, crouch

  • Left arrow -> Roll to the left

  • Right arrow -> Roll to the right

  • N -> Jump

  • M -> Fire

  • C -> Insert coin

Game managing:

  • P -> Pause the game

  • Esc -> Pause and go windowed mode

  • 0 -> Fullscreen mode

  • 1 -> Windowed (small)

  • 2 -> Windowed (medium)

  • 3 -> Windowed (large)

Everyone can enjoy BallMan! 

Why? Because it's only a few megabytes in size and you will download it in a couple of seconds! 

Also, you don't need a thousand dollars gaming PC to run it, your grandma's old laptop will be more than enough to play!

...true story, tested by myself ;)

Have fun, and follow me for new releases!
