MASSFALL

Weld parts to your ball to change its shape, weight, center of mass, and bounce. Drop through procedurally generated pinball wells, correct your path with limited midair moves, and bank HEAT before a hit to your core halves it. A physics-driven pinball roguelite where the ball is the build.

About the Game

BUILD THE BALL, NOT A STAT SHEET

In MASSFALL, upgrades are physical parts welded directly onto the ball. With up to 12 sockets, you can reshape its silhouette, alter its weight and center of mass, and change how it bounces. A hammer makes one side heavy and dangerous. Balloons slow the fall. Spikes crack armor when you land the hit at the right angle. For nearly every part type, filling every socket with copies of that part activates a powerful set bonus.

DROP, NUDGE, BANK

Choose a drop point with a live trajectory preview, then descend through wells generated from a seed on every run. You have a limited number of midair nudges, slams, and spins to correct your path. Break gem nodes to recharge those moves, use wall launchers to bounce back up, and turn a bad drop into another scoring pass.

RISK YOUR HEAT

Breaking nodes builds HEAT, but it is not SCORE until you bank it. Pass through golden bank rings to convert it into SCORE. Push for a larger payout, or cash out before a hit to the core cuts your unbanked HEAT in half.

DESCEND 99 STAGES

Descend through 25 zones spanning nine well themes, including climbing stages, wraparound arenas, loops, glass depths, and flooded sections. A boss awaits every fourth stage. Thirteen boss archetypes become more dangerous as you descend, and each difficulty has its own final boss.
