Thank you everyone that has played and enjoyed Pig Eat Ball! I'd like to show you my next game that was just revealed. It is an action-platformer with a cool twist. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2976260/ChainStaff/

Please wishlist ChainStaff today! It's a big help to me, as it helps support me as I keep making new games.


If you like:
  • Contra
  • Bionic Commando
  • Earthworm Jim
  • Grappling hooks
  • Freaky monsters
  • Throwing giant spears
  • Playing as a weird player character who is human but has an alien stuck to his head
  • Crazy guns
Then it's very likely you'll enjoy ChainStaff! It will hopefully be released some time in 2025.

"Speed Runners" Update! Rebalanced!


Speed Running Details


(New art above! 1920x1080, click to download for Desktop art) A new update is live in which plenty of "RNG / Random number generator" gameplay has been REMOVED, to ensure better replays of levels. * For anyone just wanting to enjoy the game - regular gameplay is still great (plenty of variety) * But ALSO now, for those wishing to climb the Leaderboards, and just trying to improve their fastest times on their favorite levels, things are much better now! * Lots of enemies and events have had the "RNG/Random" elements made to be "deterministic". It means the levels are still crazy and chaotic, BUT when you reset the level and try again, balls, enemies, and hazards will all react the same. * (Exceptions to this rule include: flying "Bot" bugs, bosses, and a few spots here and there still have some randomness to them, to ensure the max fun, and twitch skill requirements.) * Hundreds of levels were slightly modified to ensure they are still super fun, but also easier to replay and get the same outcome, to make them more exciting to go for the fastest time. * Note: Leaderboards have been reset. This is because the levels are now different from a speed-running perspective, they've been rebalanced and players will now get different times. So to make it fair, they've all been reset. I do not plan to reset them again. They should be ready now for serious speed-running.

50 Steam Reviews???


** Please make sure to LEAVE A STEAM REVIEW! (Positive or Negative, however you feel about the game). Help us hit 50 Steam Reviews! When we do, more of the systems on Steam will open up, and the game will be recommended to more people, which helps us make money on the game, to improve it, and make more games. Thank you! *(Why did I have RNG in the first place? To require twitch-based skills in wild, chaotic levels. I see now though that it was *too* much randomness, AND I've found ways to ensure chaos, but with repeatability--the best of both worlds!)

Alpha Version Released

Pig Eat Ball has finally hit "Alpha"! That means all the gameplay, levels, and characters are in, but there's still some things to rearrange and big bugs to fix. But that also means we're releasing the game SOON! If you backed the game long ago, please check your inbox, because I've emailed out all the Steam keys. If you didn't get one, check your Spam folder. And email me if you still can't find it. Here's some art I did to encapsulate what going Alpha feels like.
Yeah, that's me blissfully driving the spaceship while my tech lead, John Meister from Super Soul, is pushing this crazy thing :) Now we'll see if the wheels stay on this jalopy as all the testers play the game for the first time! You can complain about bugs over on the Steam forums here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/339090/discussions/ And we will be chatting with folks on our Discord server here: https://discord.gg/q4fCzjs Finally, for all those interested, please Wishlist the game on Steam! https://store.steampowered.com/app/339090/Pig_Eat_Ball And tell any friends about it too, it really helps. Thanks all!
