We had a same idea, while brainstorming on the first day, but we choose another topic for our game! Probably a bit faster gameplay would be nice! (Faster ball, or more slippery ground probably?) Anyway, nice entry!

Cool game and nice concept!  Good work.

Very fun game! It was very relaxing to try and collect all of the items, but I still managed to fall in the holes plenty of times. I can't wait to see more levels.

I've always been bad in these labyrinth games, Could work perfectly on phone using the gyro.

Developer

Planning on adding acceleration input on it in future.

Developer

Now added acceleration input and compiled to android also. Updated version will be out with this feature, new levels and main menu probably next weekend. Also a little improved sensitivity, but not much because I like the late response. That way you have to predict and countermove so it doesn't feel like you are controlling the ball in stead of the board.

Level one reminds me of Labyrinth (board game) that I used to play as a kid. Nice game.

omg another tilt maze! Though I have to say this one felt a bit unpolished with the controls and ball move speed, but it was still fun to play. But also it's cool to see another game like this since I also submitted one for my entry. Check out my tilt maze too!

Sound was pretty creepy, but well at least it is filled.

The game is feels pretty sluggish though in terms of movement speed, and not because of lag. Well nothing looks too out of place so, at least a game, small nitpick, should have added an ending anyways.

I had fun playing, reminded me of a toy I had when i was a kid, only this had moving parts and items to collect. Well done! I only wish there were more levels.

Developer(+1)

I had that toy/game Ball Maze or Labyrinth as an inspiration for this game. More levels in the making.
