Eight Balls

Eight Balls is a ball-platform game where you jump between platforms and can either race against time or play at a more leisurely pace. It includes several modes, each with its own way of progressing through levels.

Game modes

In Plot mode, you follow the story of EightBalls, who is captured by a mysterious person called The Brid and taken to a laboratory for experiments. You pass levels there. In Jump mode, you use directional keys to guide EightBalls from one model to another in platform-jumping levels. Beat The Ball has you slide the mouse to control a paddle, relaying EightBalls from one paddle to the next until it reaches the finish line; the places used in this mode differ from those in other modes.

Loop Space

Loop Space is an infinite-loop mode in which you move forward through spaces and search for an exit. Exits are uncommon and can appear as a door in the middle of the current space, on the left or right, but not at the endpoint. A door at the endpoint usually leads to the next space. The mode has four types of challenge:

• Jump: Use first-person jumps across platforms to reach the finish line and continue to the next level.
• Transmit Door: Choose among doors that may send you forward, backward or keep you in place. Multiple selections can help reveal where each door leads; displays in each area track how many areas you have travelled through until you reach the exit to the next level.
• Key Door: Find a key that looks much like EightBalls, then use it to open the door at the finish line and move on.
• Find Different: Decide what belongs in a level and what does not. A single mistake makes the level incorrect; at the finish, choose between two doors, with the right choice marked “Yes” and the wrong one “No”.
