The engine, the physics and the look are done enough to watch. What is not finished is everything around them: the settings, the presets and the export path. So we shipped it as a preview instead of sitting on it.
The order is decided by these votes rather than by us, and the most-voted modes go first. If this is the one you want, say so.
One ball rolls through x1 to x4 multiplier gates until hundreds of balls flood the arena and smash a giant pane of glass.
Glass Rush asks one question: can the ball multiply fast enough to break the glass? A single ball drops into a round arena. The bottom half holds a set of nested U-shaped lanes, and at the bottom of each lane sits a multiplier gate marked x1, x2, x3 or x4.
Every time a ball rolls through a gate, that many new balls fly in through the entry gap in the wall. One ball becomes five, five become twenty, and within seconds a stream of hundreds is hammering the glass that fills the other half of the arena.
The glass breaks piece by piece, in ragged cracks, and the shards fall away. Behind it, spikes line the far wall and pop any ball that breaks through. When the last of the glass goes, it shatters in one wave and the round starts again.
The run opens on a single ball flying in through the one gap in the arena wall. The first seconds are all about whether it finds a lane.
A ball that rolls through an x3 gate sends three new balls in through the entry gap. The gates near the middle are worth the most and the hardest to reach.
Queued balls fly in through the gap as a stream that lobs onto the nearest glass still standing, so the crowd keeps eating into the pane from the open side.
The far wall is lined with spikes that only matter once the glass in front of them is gone. A ball that reaches one pops.
When almost all of the glass is gone, the rest shatters in a single wave, the broken arena holds for a moment and the round resets.
The gate multipliers decide how explosive the run is. 4,3,2,1 is the classic; all fours is a flood.
Hits to break a piece and crack size together set how long the glass holds out, which is the length of the video.
Spikes that pop balls keep the crowd moving and give the final seconds a second threat.
Balls released per second sets how thick the stream through the gap gets once the gates start firing.
Every event has its own sound, from a built-in effect, your own upload, a MIDI melody or the sliced song.
One ball against a wall of glass is an obvious challenge, and the viewer stays to see if it can be done.
The count does not climb, it explodes. Each gate pass visibly adds to a stream that gets thicker every second.
Glass breaks somewhere on screen almost every frame once the stream starts, with shards falling away and new holes opening.
The final shatter is a clear payoff, and the reset makes the clip loop.
Four lanes at 4,3,2,1, glass across the right half, spikes on the far wall. The reference version of the challenge.
Every gate set to x4. The arena floods in seconds and the glass barely stands a chance.
More hits per piece and a smaller crack size, so the crowd has to grind the pane down over a full minute.
Multiplied balls burst straight out of the gate that made them instead of the spawner, filling the lanes from the bottom.
Spikes set to bounce instead of pop, so the crowd only ever grows and the finish is a packed arena.
Start from 4,3,2,1. Raise them for a faster, wilder run; lower them for a slower build.
Hits to break a piece is the main dial for run length. Aim the default run at 30 to 45 seconds.
Put the entry gap on the open side, across from the glass, so the stream has to fly over the lanes to reach it.
A pop on spawn, a sparkle on each gate and a crunch on every break make the flood audible.
Every roll builds a different layout: which side the glass is on, the gate values, the colours and the spike line.
Every ball that passes a gate adds more balls, and every new ball can pass a gate too. That is exponential growth, and it is why the first seconds feel slow and the next ten feel overwhelming.
The spawner releases queued balls as a stream that speeds up while a big batch is waiting, so a burst of gate passes turns into a thick pour rather than a slow trickle.
The pane is a lattice of irregular pieces that follows every curve of the arena, filling each lane and the space above them right up to the walls. A hard hit takes one hit point from the piece it lands on; when a piece breaks, a crack runs out from it in random directions and the broken pieces fall away as jagged shards, the same way glass breaks in Breaker mode.
Balls resting against the glass wear it down slowly, so a packed arena still makes progress. When nearly all of the pane is gone, the rest shatters at once so every run gets its ending.
