Pool, But Wrong
Read full descriptionHide full description
I made Pool, but Wrong to see how many bad ideas I could add to a perfectly normal game of pool. It's a small indie game with 100 levels, zero ads, and the whole game is completely free to play. It starts simply. Pull back. Take your shot. Sink the colored balls. Black goes last. Easy. Then every five levels, I change the rules. The holes move. The table tilts. The cue stick stops behaving like a cue stick. Gravity bends your shots. The table freezes over. Balls merge. Magnets appear. Balls get chained together. And eventually, yes, there is a sword. There are 100 little pool puzzles to make your way through, with a different twist every five levels. Learn the new rule. Get comfortable. Watch me change it again. FEATURES • 100 puzzle levels • A different mechanic every 5 levels • Crisp pixel-art visuals • Physics-based shots and strange interactions • Ice, gravity, moving holes, magnets and chains • Quick levels made for experimenting • One deeply questionable sword This is a small indie game I made for people who enjoy figuring things out, weird mechanics, pixel art and pool games that have gone slightly off the rails. If you're looking for a serious pool simulator, something has gone terribly wrong. Pool, but Wrong Pool was fine. I fixed it.
