About the Game

peg-physics chaos in a candy-coated wrapper.

gumball is a rogue-like peg poppin' blast where you dispense gumballs from a magical machine, fire them at boards full of pegs, and watch physics do the rest. clear the special pegs, survive the run, and choose which of your gumballs gets a wild new stamp between every level.

every ball is yours. every stamp matters.

you start each run with 6 gumballs. they never get replaced — they get upgraded. stamp a ball with heavy to crash through pegs. stamp it with ghost to pass through walls. stack triple on top of fire on top of click-bomb and watch the board detonate. each gumball builds its own story across a run.

30+ stamps. varying rarities. infinite combinations.

from bouncy and magnet to chain-lightning and anti-gravity, every stamp changes the way a ball moves, scores, or interacts with the board. curse stamps lurk in special events. mythical stamps drop after boss encounters. no two runs play the same.

features

  • 30+ unique stamps, across common, rare, super rare, ultra rare, mythical, and curse rarities

  • satisfying peg physics with rolling marble shading and chain-reaction chaos

  • online leaderboards, everyday, compete against other gumballers (cool name btw) to place at the top of the leaderboard in the daily seed.

  • level creator, design your own boards using many different tools to challenge your friends.

  • boss boards,that reward you with mythical balls

  • cosmetic progression — unlock new ball/background/peg skins, change how your game feels.
