'''''Neverball''''' is a ] ] similar to '']''. It is currently available for ] 2000/XP, ], ] and ]. ''Neverball'' is ] under the ]. |

==The game== |
|
|
The main gameplay of ''Neverball'' is based on moving a ball using gravity by tilting the game world, not directly controlling the ball. The mouse, keyboard, or joystick tilt the level to help guide the ball to a goal, via an obstacle course, with a set time limit. Moving platforms and other crazy objects get in the way, making levels progressively harder. To unlock the goal on each level, the player must collect a required amount of coins. Coins come in three different colors: yellow, red and blue. Red coins are worth 5 yellows and blue coins are worth 10 yellows. Collecting 100 coins gains an extra life. |
|
|
|
|
|
The current release (v1.4.0) contains 3 level sets, each level set containing 25 levels. The first level set is Easy for beginners, and the other two are for more expert players. There are also additional level sets that are available for download, which are available at the . |
|
|
|
|
|
''Neverball'' features other challenges such as collecting as many coins as possible within the time limit, or just to see how quickly the player can finish a level. Easy, Medium and Hard high scores are available for each and every level. |
|
|
|
|
|
Three camera modes are available at the press of a button. Pressing F1 switches to the Chase Camera, which rotates to follow the ball quickly and closely. Pressing F2 switches to the Lazy Camera, which is the same as the Chase Camera, but responds slower. Pressing F3 switches to Manual Camera, in which the camera will only rotate when you press the specific buttons for it (default is left/right mouse buttons). |
|
|
|
|
|
''Neverball'' features a replay recording system, which records gameplay in any level. Recording begins automatically when the level begins. Replays can be saved when a level is cleared, or when the ball falls off the level. Currently, up to 64 replays can be saved. |
|
|
|
|
|
''Neverball'' allows the creation of levels with ], the level creation program for popular games such as '']''. GtkRadiant currently has versions for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. |
|
|
|
|
|
''Neverball'' has relatively high system requirements for smooth play, but it is possible to lower the resolution, the graphics and sound compression to get ''Neverball'' running faster on more modest systems. A processor that runs at least 1000 MHz, and a good graphics card are recommended for fast running gameplay. |

==''Neverputt''== |
|
|

|
|
''Neverball'' comes with an additional ] companion game using the same physics, called ''Neverputt'', which comes with 3 course packs ranging from Easy to Hard. The current release of ''Neverball'' (1.4.0) has removed the ability to play ''Neverputt'' levels inside ''Neverball''. |
