About the Game

Grappling Ball is a platformer game in which you control the ball which is equipped with a grapple gun. By utilising your grapple gun to get through the obstacle courses your aim is to complete all 10 levels.

You will begin with Level 1. The rest of the levels that you'll see will be locked. By playing through the levels and completing them at the start will unlock then next level. At the beginning it will be a chance for you to understand and gather a feeling for the game. As you progress the levels become increasingly longer and harder providing a bigger challenge

As a ball your grapple gun will be key to completing the levels. Some levels will be obvious when to use the grapple gun however even those levels which doesn't look like it's required it will always be useful.
