Rolling puzzler, Road to Ballhalla wants to crush your balls in a new trailer

Oh, the balls jokes that will be radiating from this game. Road to Ballhalla is a rhythm-based rolling puzzle game where the player takes control of, you guessed it, a rolling ball as you navigate through levels full of deadly hazards and hilarious floor text that taunts your seemingly every move. If you're looking for a game that gives you a sense of personal empowerment and confidence….you've come to the wrong place. An omniscient presence within the game laughs at your every move while baiting you into killing yourself.

Here's the list of features that Road to Ballhalla offers per the game's Steam page:

Rhythm-driven Gameplay
  • Move with the music to overcome even the most difficult hazards, like laser beams or insane camera angles trying to explode both your balls and your brain.
Dynamic Music and SFX
  • The dynamic music by Emmy-nominated composer Nicholas Singer is tailored to the rhythm and style of each level, with sound effects adjusting to the level's music. Without it, you'd fail even harder.
Epic Storyline
  • Not included. Instead, be guided by floor texts that make fun of you when you fail and drop awful puns even if you unexpectedly don't.
Scavenger Hunt
  • Discover secret areas that lead to other secret areas which in turn lead to other secret areas1. You get the idea, and maybe even the rainbow that awaits you at the end of the treasure. Probably you'll just google it, though.
Speedrolling
  • Replay levels in Rush mode as fast as you can and prove that you are a good person by beating other players' high scores.
Style your Balls
  • Be rewarded with awesome bonus contents like tasty new colors2 and trail effects for your balls.
Workshop Integration (coming soon!)
  • Community levels are probably better anyways – create and share your own challenges with the level editor, available a few weeks after launch.
Road to Ballhalla would also like to let prospective players know that the game "may contain traces of you going nuts" (ha!) and that it is gluten-free. Now you know what you are dealing with here.
