Hamster Ballers

A short, hilariously unfair, two-player obstacle course that'll more than answer the question: "Would I lose my sanity if I were trapped in a hamster ball with this person and had to climb a stupid hazard filled mountain to get out?"

About the Game

A friendship-ending, physics-based, ragebait game where you and a friend are hamsters trapped inside a hamster ball and you can't get out until you complete this obstacle course.

Two Hamsters. One Ball. Zero Coordination.

Get your best friend and roll through an impossible obstacle course, with two twists:

  • You can't just hold a button to move. Each press instead shoves the ball, so you have to be constantly reacting to your speed and direction.

  • In co-op, you have to match the number of inputs you make with your partner. If one person presses five times in a row without any input from your partner, the ball explodes.

Online Multiplayer

Can't complete the course alone? Grab a friend to "help" you out!

  • Play online co-op with one other friend.

  • Or play solo and take control of the hamster ball yourself. It is slippery. You will fall many times.

Ball Physics

We modeled the hamster ball physics after the hamster ball that your pet hamster played in when you were a kid.

Good Luck

You will fall and explode... a lot. Good luck, and may hamster speed be with you.
