    I don't suppose the grass bends as you roll through it? 'Cause that'd be lovely.

    It doesn't (although we could do it, it would probably be too expensive) but it does blow around in the wind

    I would also like to have an option to where I can smell the grass.

    Put that in.

    Does the grass move to face the sun as it crosses the sky?

    What about real-time growing mechanics?

    Will I be able to cut the grass using a ball-powered mower? Will it affect the ecosystem of later levels?

    Ok, you guys figured us out.

    The game is actually a lawn simulator. The ball is actually one of those little lawn mower robots except he also can fire seeds out of those holes. The levels are golf courses.

    I would play this game.

    Also: Another collectors edition perk. Put some fresh cut grass clippings in each box.

    So I'm back from being elsewhere and can start working on this game again now. Progress has been made even since yesterday in various areas. Here are some pretty screenshots for ya'll, although they aren't showing much which is new

    Why is the ball rolling around the island? Is this a LOST thing?

    Ok, how about Survivor?

    (I didn't watch either of these shows, I'm just curious why there's a ball in a tropical locale.)

    I think several ball designs (possibly with different attributes) would be neat, too

    We're probably going to do that yo'. Unlockable balls etc.

    That sounds hot.

    Remington has been working on making the ball sexier and boy is it fucking sexy now. Also the glasshouses. Case in point:

    You can confirm that I am correct in my guess that no testicles have been harmed in the production of Ballin' Outta Control?

    Also, give me a shout when you're gearing up for release.

    Not gonna lie, my testicles are accidentally harmed pretty regularly, but I don't think it's ever been a direct result of this videogame.

    Shall do! <3

    Do you guys need music then? I know a guy who would be perfect for the outside bits. He'd probably do it for free/very reasonable.

    We actually have someone working on music but we've yet to see how good/dedicated she is, so it'd be good to have options.
