Sticky Balls is an action puzzle game for the Gizmondo and iOS.[2]
Development
It was developed by Zed Two, and was initially developed for Pocket PCs.[3] After Zed Two was bought out by Warthog, a version was in development for the PlayStation Portable, until Warthog was bought out by Tiger Telematics and development was switched to the Gizmondo.[4]
It was one of only 8 titles available for the handheld console in the United States, and among the 14 games released for the system in Europe.
In May 2014, Sticky Balls was released on iOS devices under the name, Sticky Balls Classic. It was popular enough to spawn a sequel Sticky Balls Soccer.
Gameplay
Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found. Sticky Balls uses a pool-like interface where the player utilizes a spring-loaded rod to shoot brightly colored balls at each other. Bouncing the balls against the table walls doubles the score of the shot but hitting a ball of a different color, or failing to hit anything causes the player to lose a turn.[5]
Rather than pocketing the balls in a pocket like in a traditional pool game, the balls must be stuck together in groups of seven to win the stage. As the game progresses, additional power-ups, bonuses and stage designs offer a new challenges.
Sequel
On May 23, 2014, Fast Pixel Games Ltd released Sticky Balls on iOS devices under the name, Sticky Balls Classic. Later on June 29, 2014, the same company released Sticky Soccer on iOS devices.[6]
