Hey there,

I toiled until 4 am last night to finish up 8 months of work on Ball Revamped 5. The new game has an amazing level editing system, as well as 100 new levels of gameplay. On top of that, there is an achievement system built in for extra replay value. Here's the run down:

* 15 Power ups each fused by collecting multiple power ups!

* 100 levels, with 12 different ways to beat the game!

* Custom high score system!

* Brand new worlds and obstacles.

* Robust Physics engine.

* Built in save-system.

* Achievements system, for capturing hard-to-get moments.

* New final boss, with less lag! :)

* Incredibly refined level editor, with high scores for each custom level, ratability and log-in functions.

* Completely original soundtrack.

The branched gameplay is something I really like. It allows for the users to navigate the levels in a non-linear fashion, and based on a difficulty that matches the difficulty to get to the levels!

Hope you'll go play it and enjoy it. This probably wouldn't have happened if a bunch of 16 year olds didn't pressure me to do it, so I am glad they forced it down me :). Enjoy the madness, hopefully you get a lot of fun out of it.

Ball Revamped 5 is in full-gear, bound to release in a week or two! Ball Revamped is a series of games, in which you navigate a beach ball through increasingly difficult levels. If you like, you can play around with Ball Revamped 4 to get acquainted with the game.

This version will have a 100 levels, more power ups, and several new features. I will be updating my website with new features from day to day, so if you are interested, you can head over to jmtb02.com to check out some of the preview screenshots.

A more interesting part of this release will be the included level editor. This level editor was made by Tastylamp, a friend and forum member on my site. The level editor already has 400+ user made levels, and you will be able to make your own in-game as well! There's no need to save codes, as your levels are saved on a server, where you can see everyone else's level sets and play them! That way, Ball Revamped 5 will have plenty of extra playtime if you're at all interested.

Cheers :)!
