A major update for Too Many Balls is now live!
This update focuses on improving the game's progression, economy, and overall usefulness of upgrades based on player feedback.
🛠️ Helpers Removed
We've removed the player helpers.
Many players felt that the helpers weren't adding enough meaningful value to the gameplay and didn't serve a clear purpose. We've decided to remove them and keep the focus on the core gameplay loop: collecting, selling, upgrading, and clearing areas yourself.
💰 Reworked Economy & Progression
We've also made significant changes to the game's economy and upgrade progression.
Previously, many of the upgrades could be fully completed around the halfway point of the game. This meant that there wasn't much meaningful use for the extra money players earned during the later areas.
The new economy spreads progression more throughout the game, giving the money you earn later on a much more important purpose.
This should make upgrades and spending decisions feel more relevant as you progress through the different areas.
🏆 Leaderboard Reset
Because the economy and upgrade costs have been significantly changed, existing leaderboard times would no longer be directly comparable to runs played under the new progression system.
For that reason, the leaderboards have been reset so everyone can compete under the same rules and progression.
Thank you to everyone who has been playing Too Many Balls and sharing feedback. Your feedback directly helped shape this update, and we hope the new progression makes the full game more satisfying from start to finish.
Keep collecting! 🏀🎾🏓
