This looks very cool, I noticed it during my daily browse of gentoo-portage.com today, its a clone of nintendo gamecube's Super Monkey Ball, and looks to be cool.

Yes, Neverball is very sweet. My fave level is #15 and new levels can be made in the same program as quake3 levels. The developer also released Neverputt, which looks very cool as well.

It is a nice game, but I found it aggravatingly difficult to play. The ball seems too floaty.

Yes it seems too light (in the weight kind)... GarageGames have a game that is similar to this, that's a very fun game can't remember it's name now but I've played the Demo on my parents Win98 and I think there's a linux port.

Yes I mean Marble Blast... It's only available for download from them...
I wonder if I can burn it on a CD and give it to my little brother for Christmas, or do you have any tips on how to legaly move it from one computer to another?

I don't know anything more ridiculous than the law saying you can't play a game, that you bought, with your family members. Whether they are in they are in the same house on the same computer or across the country. Sounds like a good gift though.

I just emerged neverball and had a go -- that's so good! Bloody hard though :D

I got to the level after the first one with the sliding platforms -- the coins in the maze. I couldn't keep the ball moving slow enough, so I kept bouncing merrily over the edge :lol:
