The Ball

Teotl Studios Ek. För. | Released Oct 26, 2010



The Ball is an Unreal Engine 3 singleplayer action/puzzle game. The game will be released October 26, 2010 for PC on Steam, and it will also be available on Impulse, Gamersgate, D2D, and in shops world wide!
You play as an archaeologist working on the slopes of a dormant volcano somewhere in Mexico, and a technical malfunction gets you stuck in a cavern. It doesn't take long before you realize this is more than just a cave. You reveal ancient ruins that have been hidden from outsiders for centuries and discover a mysterious artifact, a gold and metal shelled Ball. As you venture deeper into the volcano, you reveal some of mankind's greatest secrets...

Playing from a first person perspective, you solve puzzles and crush monsters with a large physics driven ball, manipulated by the pushing and pulling forces of an ancient device.

    Standalone? This is so friggin' awesome! If it could be integrated with the Desura API too, then epicness will blow minds. Through the walls.
