BALL x PIT is a brick-breaking, ball-fusing, base-building survival roguelite. Batter hordes of enemies with ricocheting balls and gather the riches of the pit to expand your homestead, generate resources and recruit unique heroes. BALL x PIT is a fast-paced fantasy roguelite where heroes must find the balls to plunge deeper into a seemingly bottomless pit of monsters. Develop arcane ammunition and resources in pursuit of treasure, recruiting additional heroes to aid you in your perilous quest. Ballbylon has fallen. After a meteoric and completely unexpected event annihilated the great city, all that remains is an ominous, yawning pit. Treasure hunters from far and wide flock to the city’s tomb to seek their fortune, plumbing the depths in search of Ballbylon’s scattered riches. Few return. The pit plays host to armies of barbaric creatures, hellbent on ending your quest before it even begins. Armed with a growing arsenal of magic-infused projectiles, batter your way through multiple levels of increasingly challenging obstacles to claim the ultimate prizes and rebuild New Ballbylon. Fuse Your Balls The Ball Fusion system encourages explosive experimentation with over 60 randomized balls to equip and combine during your journey. Discover overpowered combinations and unexpected synergies from hundreds of possible outcomes. Build New Ballbylon Expand New Ballbylon with over 70 unique buildings that provide gameplay bonuses and unlock further power-ups, new characters, and more! As your community grows, task homebound heroes with automated tasks to keep the resources coming while you dive deeper into the pit. Discover New Realms Face legions of diverse enemies within the pit, battling through barren deserts, frozen caverns, savage forests and more. Each region offers its own unique set of hazards on top of hordes of increasingly challenging foes and mighty, screen-filling bosses. Recruit Fellow Hunters As you explore the pit you’ll encounter fellow treasure hunters eager to add their skills to your expedition. Each character has unique, upgradable mechanics that totally change the way you play the game. Experimentation and adaptation are crucial to the success of New Ballbylon!

Meet Krekker, a little green frog with a big mouth and even bigger ambitions. Armed with an ever-growing arsenal of bouncing balls that he launches straight from his gullet, Krekker takes on an endless onslaught of bricks that stack down from above. Break all the bricks before they reach the bottom! Pull down to aim, swipe to line up your shot, and release to let Krekker unleash a volley of white balls that ricochet, bounce, and smash through everything in their path. Each level spawns a new layer of bricks. Clear them before they stack too deep or it's game over. Not all bricks are created equal! Red bricks are your common targets but every ten levels you'll face Miner's Bricks! These tough brown blocks crack open to reveal what's hidden underneath. Sometimes it's gold. Sometimes it's stone with twice the health. Aim carefully around green bumpers that deflect your balls in random directions and trigger lasers that blast bricks in multiple directions when your balls pass through them. Every level drops a ball pick-up so the longer you survive, the bigger Krekker's arsenal gets and the more satisfying each volley becomes! FEATURES: - Intuitive pull-and-release aiming controls - Growing ball count: your firepower increases every level - Multiple brick types including Miner's Bricks with hidden surprises - Bumpers and lasers that add chaos and strategy to every shot - Energy system with coins, rewards, and ad-supported refills - Clean pixel art style with satisfying brick-breaking physics A game by Audacious Machine.
