Really fun and the style is awesome the only thing I wish is that it was a slightly slower pace. It’s nice that it’s faster than the original katamari but the whole thing is over really fast. Once you’ve caused enough damage to be big, the police are already so strong that there’s no fighting their power to melt you.
Some performance issues once you start getting power ups but this is a really cool spin on this kind of game. I enjoyed playing it , great art style , fun powerups. Cant wait to see what comes from this !
I know that this is an early demo, but the perfomance issues prevent me to fully enjoy this. I have more than capable PC for it yet still it has these sudden frame STOPS that affect the game. I wishlisted it on steam, I have my own demo at steam I Know how important wishlists are but please fix these issues so that i can come back to it! Thanks! Amazingly simple game!
A LOT of optimisation has already happened since this Demo went live - we hope to update the Demo in line with the ongoing performance improvements for the full release.
It was a very cool and addictive game. so much fun rolling around and watching the city get destroyed. I can't wait for the full version on Steam, once it has more levels, it's going to be even better. GG🔥
I love the arts/style of this game, do you have any process documentation or behind-the-scenes info about how you achieved this look? I’m trying to learn more about “PSX” era style graphics.
Super fun! I have run into a problem though. Sometimes the camera will just zoom in super closely. It goes away after a while. Just makes it hard to see where I am going sometimes
I would impose a mechanic that absorbs destroyed structures, into the ball. It would step the game up tremendously. Because they slowly fall down, far after you have passed it. Just a suggestion. Otherwise, pretty fun. :)
I find I can't really do anything meaningful. When the enemies show up, they merely shoot you to death, and that's it. Rolling at them to eat them doesn't work, because they harm you far more than eating them helps you.
I never saw the "A" of R-O-L-L-A, or maybe the 2nd "L". Maybe they're too hidden by buildings?
As nearly as I can tell, the "special" can only be used if the "rage meter" maxes out, but this is not explained. Does the rage meter onl fill up when you get shot? Sometimes a power will go off, but I did not press the button. Did I roll over a power-up that doesn't look like anything special? When the special goes off, it ends in mere seconds, so it doesn't actually help. The "dash" doesn't dash at all, so that's just a lie.
There are no useful decisions I can make as a player, because nothing especially helps. The goal items of tower and firetruck don't especially grow the monster, and neither do the letters.
It's not clear if a smaller monster can eat a larger building when given enough time, but the enemies show up so fast and are so deadly that I can't even hang out to try it before I die.
It would help if there was a mini-map, 'cuz mostly the whole map looks the same with no landmarks.
And it isn't fair that some enemies such as flamethrowers show up OUTSIDE the map where you can't get at them, IN THE WATER. How is that guy walking on water? Why does jezus want to kill my harmless innocent monster?
And the airstrikes targets show up and bomb so fast you can't really DO ANYTHING about them as a player.
some really solid notes here, thanks for taking the time to detail this out. Will pass on for our next production sync - some of these are definitely known issues we're working on.
Optimisation an ongoing process here - we're working on updates and will have this properly addressed for launch (hopefully a back-fix for Demo, too). Thanks for playing and flagging with us

cursed katamari
Pronto agora vou passar a Rola na cidade toda
As a Brazilian you dont know how much this game name is funny
É verdade , quando li o nome do jogo já pensei nisso 😂😂😂😂
Siiim kakakka
Cool game! Would be nice if it showed you the x out of 5 for your goals on the game-over screen! Just my two cents :)
Carrion if it was 3D
katamari if it were american
The gameover music is very nice. Does anyone know the name of the song?
Lá ele esse nome

happy to hear it!!
Reminds me of "Giant Boulder Of Death", I love it

Woah this is cool
I MUST DESTROY ALL OF THIS RANDOM CITY THAT I GOT PUT INTO FOR SOME REASON I DON'T KNOW BUT LET'S BLOW STUFF UP!! Youtube Link -

Mmmmm...meatball...;{)
Good demo really enjoyed it definitely looking forward to play more of your games
Sobre oque é este jogo

Uma bola que ROLA
Awesome

I see a couple of comments already bring up the two games I was going to say, but . . . yeah:
Carrion meets Katamari Damacy
Looks hilariously meaty!
Super fun! I have run into a problem though. Sometimes the camera will just zoom in super closely. It goes away after a while. Just makes it hard to see where I am going sometimes
haven't played the game yet but trying to read pale yellow text on a bright pink page background is hurting my eyes
Carrion sequel.

A great note! We shall discuss!
Seems very fun! Just cant get very far. No good way to manage getting shot, so its super easy to be swarmed.
cool
Some pretty decent scores there - thanks for checking it out!

Very good music and addicting gameplay, however there's a major problem with frame drop as the rolla gets larger.
