Place down pegs then drop a ball to start the Rube Goldberg machine of chaos. Pegs have unique functions and can be used in various creative ways, such as creating a pocket dimension filled with bombs or using umbrellas to shoot balls with mortars and turrets or just create an alternate universe that generates you infinite money to supply your main universe.

really fun game but unfortunately I keep breaking the game. There needs to be a button to force end the current drop. Destroying the balls doesn't work all the time.

you new here ?

love the YouTube content

PYRO I DID IT 26th ON THE LEADER BOARD 170 MILLLLLLLLLLL OMG BROOOOOOOO

proud of you :)

and then on level 20 the guy isn't there its a big bug

(1 edit)

I found a bug. when you use the time ball when you finish level 19 to go to level 20 and reset back to level 19 it still shows the guy and you lose 500 points every ball on level 19 instead of level 20

yeah, aware of this issue but honestly not too interested in fixing it so it might as well be a feature lol

wow so basicly if your able to time it level 20 becomes easier

luck based to get an easier level 20

random idea. every update try to add one more peg to keep the demo atleast a little more interesting also why is the top like 20 just 9999999999999999999999999 that seems cheated or smth 

nah therye legit, the scoreboard maxes out at that value so they all actually got way more score than that

any thoughts on my random ideas 

well i definitely wont add one peg every update, im already worried about how much content i put into the demo, because obviously I need to atleast double that content for the full release, but I do still sometimes run little community events where the discord server votes for a full release peg to be added to the demo

as for the key thing i see no reason to do that, thats not what key is supposed to do but if you want more effects on pegs i can assure you there will be more key / paint ball like items in the full release :)

thanks bro and Im waiting for the full release. I wont stop playing and will be ready for that first full release

@Pyrocreep  why in the world if you leave key on normal peg it becomes green 

also cool idea i though of make multiple keys be able to put different affects on pegs like so you can have more than 1 affect on each peg and have like 5 or more on one peg

cuz its funny :)

46 mil now I'm coming 

17MILL NEW RECORD 32nd PLACE YESSSSSS

Good stuff, I love the wacky faces on the balls. Steam ball had me chuckling

Some feedback: the stats don't reset between rounds. For instance it still shows stats for the mouth and coin pegs even though I haven't used those this round. But maybe is intended.

The alternate universe peg is diabolical. I spent more than my entire "main" round in there just for +10 points 😂

Eggs + gum balls make for a pretty nice combo. Can turn weak gumballs into newly spawned balls from the eggs.

I managed to beat the final boss with only 1 pollen ball remaining o.0

There is a bug with glue balls. The tooltip hover stays on the location in the shop that I took a peg away from with the glue ball. So it still says "pizza" where a pizza peg originally was.

Screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/AV9wkUh

The tooltip does go away after dropping the glue ball but it's pretty annoying in the meantime since it overlaps the tooltip of other items in the shop.

glad you enjoyed it :)

love this game still got like 30 smth on the leaderboard my name is trainguy

hype

guess what bro new score 17.9 mill 32 on the leader board I'm finally getting good

gulp

guess what now 46.3 mill 30th on the leader board I'm getting closer

i believe in you

my first win

how do u get better I keep getting stuck at the first level and like 70k max I dont use multiverses or pocket dementions because  just don't fully understand what I'm doing or how they work fully just yet. Any tips ?

also just wanted to mention the game is one of the best out there for the fact its fun even though its repetitive it's got many ways to get better and multiverses adds more chaos which i personally love. and the best part for me is that you don't even need to download it you can play it online and that the dev or devs don't give up on updating the game and probably won't for a long time.

    Slightly over the asking number I think I'm getting the game a little more now. I realize how op multiverses are 

itch,io wont let me post the number but its 2 million

find an OP combo of items

I got to rank 40.  The game's code must be very cleverly engineered.

Got this error while trying to run the game on web, hopefully it's fixed as I don't have access to Windows OS. ^^" been wanting to get my ploink on...

The following features required to run Godot projects on the Web are missing:
Cross-Origin Isolation - Check that the web server configuration sends the correct headers.
SharedArrayBuffer - Check that the web server configuration sends the correct headers.

Thats weird, what OS / browser are you using?

Came back to this later (didn't check itch.io later). It works fine now. I play on Opera GX. Lowkey don't know what the issue is either since whatever was happening seems to have sorted itself out.

Time to ploinkmaxx though.

... So, Blood Ball with a 9x from Awesome Ball? Don't do it unless you have a NASA computer. XD


Edit, that is to say, I crashed. :v

Linear multiverse

(+1)

cant progress anymore I hit the integer limit10/10 amazing game

(+1)

nevermind I managed to get less score


I opened a few alternate dimensions in each other...

this was pretty good right

sure

Extreme performance issues, made my entire browser crash

Mostly in the alternate universe peg

those issues usually only occur when there are a lot of balls active, alternate universe doesnt necessarily have anything to do with it

(2 edits)

No, it is the alternate universe, even with screenshake off, I couldn't play the game because the screen was shaking so bad.


(Edit)  It was on a slightly lower end device, but alternate universes do tank a bit of performance and seem likely to stop working even before the game starts breaking.

 noooo the slime ball failed me

I'm raging. been up all night tryna beat level 20. I hate the dancing guy. ahhhhh!!

I keep running into an issue where after so long all pegs with windows (helmet, pocket, etc.) the screen is just grey and i cant see to do anything

(+1)

yeah, trying hard to fix it

Cryptocurrency would really benefit from bulk purchases (or better buy/sell all). Currently even with autoclicker it's very time consuming to use them on big scale (past 10s of millions)

that peg is just horribly designed, im planning on reworking it

(+2)

Ebic game, Pyro.

:)

I found a little bug i think.

 If you have a heart (might need two) and a spoon above it, the ball can get stuck in-between the two (heart and spoon) and not fall out. I've had an alternate universe running for a few hours just doing this. After long enough the ball clipped on top of the spoon, at least i get score with my tombstone.


(+1)

pegs like heart dont actually move balls, its just visual, so something else is the cause

weird, hope you figure it out

It crashes so much ;-;

It can't be because I spawn 200ish balls in an Easter egg...

And have several dozen pocket dimensions nested in each other....

I love this game

Ive gotten a few reports of easter egg causing crashes, looking into it

(+1)(-1)

Hey there! I'd like to translate your game into Turkish professionally if you're interested!!

(+1)

I can help too.

idk how this even happened ;-; easter egg decided to spawn in these screamy guys and tank my game. my layout was pretty good tho they had to keep me from winning 😤

(+1)

you got flesh ball'd

(+1)

same thing happened to me

(-3)

i may be dumb but... isnt this just ballionaire??

(+1)

If you can't tell the difference between this game and Ballionaire you need to play more games

They're the same game in the sense that you drop balls in both of them =_=

every first person shooter is doom

Love this! The pocket universe idea is so unique, I haven't seen it before in a game like this

:D

There is a glitch with the Ploinklopedia (the menu where you can see all the balls and pegs) where by selecting the Awesome Ball then selecting another ball or closing the menu, you activate the ball's on death ability, gaining infinite score without dropping any balls.

I'll be honest. I was gonna beat the game using this glitch, and show a screenshot of the empty board and all metal balls, but getting 40,000 points while only getting 32 per repetition of the glitch was too much, so I only got to level 17. I do hope that this gets patched soon tho.

should be fixed in the next update

(+1)

went too deep then my quiz peg menu broke 

I thought I fixed this issue.....

we need a slot machine peg

Wish this was on android

(+1)

i think it should show the secret abilities of the pegs in the description after you've seen it once, its really hard to remember what all the secret abilities are and which ones ive seen and havent

Real nice game, I was a bit confused at the start but became very entertaining 👍

:]

so i think i got a little over what i needed
