Jump on the Ball!
A downloadable game
ABOUT THE GAME:
Jump on the Ball is the first video game launch from indie studios Literally Nothing and Twitzor Games. What started as an idea for a meme game quickly turned into reality as it became a mission to release a first game, no matter how simple or mundane.
Much like a collaborative college assignment, certain variables were put into place to simulate the beats of an indie game release:
- Make and release a game around a simple mechanic (thanks Ben)
- Collaborate with a team (music, video editors, voice actors etc)
- Use what’s available to you (marketplace assets, metahuman editor, etc)
- Each creative choice from font to color palette must strengthen “design pillars” of the game
- Give it a main menu, pause menu, three basic levels with transitions
- Give it a marketing cycle (streaming, devlog, TikTok clips, reach out to streamers etc)
- Give it a trailer
We went with Unreal Engine 5 to get a head start in learning the engine - as it lends itself to realism, and we . Check out our Discord for updates on our next game!

Really enjoyable. I'd like more levels!
We want to make more! What kind of levels do you think would be most fun?
I think keep the same formula, maybe add some areas where this only a small platform to balance the ball on. If the ball falls off you reset. I think adding more challenge each time would be great :)
