The 2000's vibes are immaculate

[@masonbarber871]

Apparently the game came out in 2004, so that checks out.

[@waffles7038]

I’ve never seen or heard of this game before. To me, right now, it’s a ball rolling around the inside of a really abstract album cover.

[@alexanderlove53]

Its a magnificent game when you play it The levels have very big difficulty spike sometimes though

[@tdpro3607]

i played the mobile port years ago, its way harder than it looks, and its very fun. i only remember that when your ball cracks is outer layer the weight also changes, which could affect movement

[@koroll_rakov]

just try it - it's awesome game

[@nutzeeer]

its a classic. woth gyro control and an adapting camera its really fun

[@HubbardiumKing]

​@koroll_rakov what's it on? I check steam

[@tlemo5859]

they turned jungle into a video game, cant believe it

[@itsumikoroko]

The game seems simple enough, which means you know there's some kaizo stuff like this

[@bongjovi4928]

Degenerate

[@MoustiluigiRandom]

The game actually gets quite complex right at the end, which surely has influenced people to make kaizo-level stuff for it.

[@therealsteelchill]

The audio in this game is absolutely divine

[@evencoldertea5905]

that's the reason I remembered this game and searched for it after all these years

[@Omnibushido-]

Woah, I thought I’d dreamt this game for years. I was telling my Husband about it just a few weeks ago and was trying to see if he’d heard of it at all, and now here it is in my feed. I love that feeling of realizing a game you thought was just a figment of your childhood imagination was actually real.

[@adamkampen]

I'm happy to see this game from my childhood still has players and even a custom level scene, seeing this was uploaded 6 days ago instead of 10 years ago

[@Omnibushido-]

Probably helps that it was recently re-released this year. I’m honestly surprised there isn’t more videos.

[@adamkampen]

I didn't know it got a release! Happy 20th anniversary I guess haha

[@user-ox4ii2bw6x]

I love the aesthetics of this game

[@ruzgar1372]

Literally the quintessential 1990's/ Early 2000's 3d cgi aesthetics. Love it.

[@64manxman]

Is there a name for this art style/aesthetic?

[@bwtrickster]

[@NOT_A_ROBOT]

this is also one of my very first games I've ever played

[@chamberkingston7609]

This level plays like an adventure. Must've taken many tries to remember what to do. Nice!

[@WolfmanDude]

I have been looking for a game exactly like this! The surreal 2000s DnB aesthetic is just the extra on top!

[@artemiistepanov907]

I clicked on the video thinking it was a DnB mix lol

[@MsCounterMax]

This was on autoplay for me after 4 hours of Jerma clips. I just sat there and watched, waiting patiently until he would start speaking again, not even once questioning his newly-found godly dexterity in a game like this

[@FrahdChikun]

I have never seen this game before, but after 1 video I immediately understand its mechanics.

[@zan7838]

[@eonbree8593]

oh i like this. idk why but just seeing a ball rolling around is really satisfying

[@your_stepdad]

anything involving these graphics is just so calming to me, its like some odd fever dream

[@DJRaKuN]

Everything about this game gives me chills that are somehow both unsettling and exciting. The psychedelic, dreamy aesthetics and atmosphere, the crisp sound effects, the mystical but fun and sometimes uncanny music. I become entranced by this simple but desolate, abstract world. Will always be one of my all time favorite games.

[@gameboy3d943]

Man, these ball levels in Mario Galaxy are getting a lot more intricate.

[@somerobloxdude3699]

Only missing the irritating music

[@pikminman13]

rolling games truly are a unique thing. so many different ones even if the same core idea is the same, monkey ball, marble blast/marble it up, ballance...

[@yohhh6715]

When you think about it, rolling balls (rocks) downhill is probably one of the earlier forms of entertainment, from marbles to all kinds of ball based sports, balls have always been there for mankind. Beautful.

[@silvaskiproductions3937]

never have I been so mesmerized from gameplay footage. this has potential to really pop off in short form content, like how people put Subway surfers at the tops of videos

[@opalpersonal]

i need this game immediately. the sound effects and the dynamic music stings, the ball physics, holy crap this looks amazing.

[@volchonokilliR]

I remember years ago, countless times trying to balance the ball - a lot of success, a lot of failure... The way you balance it has had my breath taken so many times!

[@genuineangusbeef8697]

The narrow beams are devious. Even with digital input, it's so easy to start off balance.

[@williamking331]

Why does the music creepy me out? But at the same time, it keeps my attention and is pleasing......

[@zan7838]

[@crystalite-thecritic9396]

Modern Balance content, am i dreaming?

[@DiceRobo]

HA, I'm a commenter that's actually played the game! And I know that this level looks difficult as heck!! Great work to the creator of the level!

[@NIMPAK1]

Never heard of this game but it gives me old Trackmania vibes.

[@DirtyMike124x]

I can see how some of those airy sustained notes might be a bit unsettling haha

[@salsamancer]

You made this look so easy. I know if i tried to play this i would go insane with anger in 3 minutes

[@titan-1802]

Theres something very eerie about this. I mean, theres only ambience playing in the background, and no other sound besides the player (the ball) rolling and moving a few objects. Along with the occasional minor sounds such as the dinging sounds (or however they're called...) Hell, theres not even a single sight of the surface beneath the platforms. Meaning that if one accidentally falls off of the platforms, they will likely be falling for a long time until they plummet into solid land.

[@wolfwoof2000]

The game has a strange feeling indeed. Not creepy but not relaxing. You're on the edge of falling too so it's a bit stressing too. When I was a kid I very liked this game, but "Switchball" came not too long after, and the vibe is way more upbeat than Balance.

[@volchonokilliR]

yes, this game is very ethereal

[@greasemonk4576]

I have never seen something so intriguingly peaceful-looking and yet so deviously-designed.

this feels so nostalgic despite me never having seen it before. It feels like the computer lab at my elementary school

This game uses virtools, a game engine from the 2000s. I love it!

[@usurajo1770]

I used to love this game as a kid, and I also remember playing a custom level for it many years ago, but by now I thought that it was forgotten and instead there's a community making insane new levels! Thanks for making me find out about this and gg on the gameplay btw, that's some insane precision in some of those sections

[@brimple]

I have never heard of this game before but the ambience is amazing

[@damianporter942]

ooooo pretty world great rolling, i can tell whoever controlled the ball is very great at it!

[@zan7838]

and is confident of their abilities

[@ergile172]

Never saw this game but the first thing that caught me was the sound design. When you hear the ball rolling on those rails or colliding with that big steel dome? Jeez. It's just so good.

[@LOLMAN9538]

So basically this is a balance-oriented version of Marble Blast Ultra.

[@Andrecio64]

That single ball did more work that me in my entire lifetime

[@brainypepper1621]

Peak game aesthetic. Also very tense. I feel like I’m gonna have a heart attack watching you almost fall lmao

[@sansclone1874]

Goodness heaven, someone's really thought it up and make it real. Thought it was a mere simple platformer game

[@JSmashChannel0]

I was today years old when I discovered the existence of an active community of Ballance custom levels... Insane xD

[@dededoritos]

It was simply impossible not clicking on this video

Bro is onto nothing

[@river038]

[@Taswert]

Omg, this video unlocks my so damn deep memories from the past about this game. I barely remember it, cause the last time I played it was when I was 5, and now, I am watching it from my recommendations. This is so strange feeling, and I love it. Thank you.

[@Froggsroxx]

At the start I understood nothing, by the middle I understood the rules, by the end I understood the universe

[@SyankaCreature]

I clicked this expecting music, thumbnail looked like an album cover. Now i have this game i know nothing about yet feel like i should give it a try. Also this reminds me a lot of Marble Blast! Another fun ball rolling game!

[@andriashikch1681]

I remember my dad downloaded this game for me from the disc with the collection of games for office. I also remember not being able to finish the second level. Is this level in vanilla game or fanmade? Because holly shit these office workers grew some capital G GaminG skills by the looks of it

[@桜埜叶毣]

This level is fan made

[@Rainquack]

I think I finally at least rediscovered *one* game, that I used to play in the library as a kid. There are so many ball-rolling games out there, but I'm quite sure this was the exact one! (Onwards to finding some SpongeBob shareware that had the Goo Lagoon in it, some racing game featuring European looking highways with occasional jumps on the sides, with (unsure) Carmageddon style 'driver reaction cams' and the (very Carmageddon) ability to run over deer or other crossing wildlife.)

[@reganico2114]

Thank you for reminding me about this game. Brings back the nostalgia.

[@gnu191]

Ballance. My childhood game

[@M-B17]

This game reminds me of another game with the same mechanics except it has a hamster in a ball in neon stages. I was addicted to those videos as a kid for the same reasons I clicked on this video, the structures.

[@sethseth6ify]

Hamsterball! I used to play that game a lot on PS3 when I was younger and think about it sometimes

honestly didnt know this game. it entered my recommended. i even still dont get what was happening most of the time but i watched the whole thing and did not regret

[@elementgermanium]

I finally found it I saw some videos on this game (at least I’m pretty sure) like a decade ago but I didn’t remember the title and I could never find it again, and now this just pops up in my recommendations. The other game was more brightly colored so I’m not 100 percent sure it’s the same but it looks familiar otherwise right down to the segment thing

[@MichaelFoster117]

never heard of this game before. but that embient soundtrack is wonderful.

[@oldstories29]

No idea why this is recommended to me but I played this game before at the day care's computer when I was like 10, I could never find what the game was called until I randomly saw this in my recommended videos. Cool video and thank you algorithm overlords

[@TheyLoveThemLLC]

Have I ever seen this game before? No. Did that stop me from watching the whole thing? NO. I'm obsessed. GOD this looks like it was made around the time Zuma was. it is SO mid 00's. It has the aesthetic of a courage the cowardly dog episode. I'm really in love with how this game looks. It's cozy in the way I have no mouth and I must scream is cozy, if that makes sense

I grew up on this game, it's such a classic. The vibes are real. also since when could you make custom levels??? also a Ballance video in 2024? are we living in a simulation? is this a dream?

[@MCAlexisYT]

Getting this in my recommended feels like finding the video game equivalent of an old video of cats “talking” to each other from 2009, and yet this was posted 9 days ago?
