## What is Ballsmith?

Ballsmith is a physics puzzle about building the ball's path: part marble run, part Rube Goldberg machine, with one twist of your own. A steel ball drops or launches from the top of the board. You place planks, bouncers, fans, portals, conveyor belts and magnets so it bounces, flies and rolls into the brass cup.

FREEZE TIME
Once per level you can stop time while the ball is in the air. Move a piece, rotate it, add a new one, then let the ball fly again. The best solutions are built mid-flight, and later levels can only be solved this way.

SIX PIECES, ENDLESS COMBINATIONS
• Plank: the classic ramp, rotates in 15° steps
• Bouncer: rubber pad that launches the ball back
• Fan: a column of wind that lifts the ball
• Portal pair: enter one, exit the other at full speed
• Conveyor belt: drives the ball along its surface
• Magnet: pulls the ball off its path

HAND-CRAFTED LEVELS, MORE ON THE WAY
Worlds with their own look and rules: Toy Room, Kitchen, Garden, Laboratory and Space, where gravity is low and every bounce carries further. Then the Factory and the Clock Tower, where obstacles slide, spin and swing, and stop too when you freeze time. New levels and worlds arrive in updates. Every level is verified to be solvable, and a hint can place one piece of a real solution for you.

THREE STARS PER LEVEL
Finish the level, spare a piece, win without freezing. Stars pay coins; coins buy hints and ball costumes.
