Ballionaire

Ballionaire is a physics-driven roguelike full of kinetic chaos. In order for players to achieve Ballionaire status, they will have to overcome arduous tribulations, discover explosive combos, and theorycraft clever ways to break the game and build the perfect pachinko board. Ballionaire is a one-of-a-kind way to make numbers go up – the world's first autobonker.

  • Bonk to Victory: Drop a ball to bonk triggers, earn money, and spawn more balls! Draft new triggers each round to increase the chaos and earnings! Build an overpowered scoring engine or an unstoppable spawn spammer! Or maybe both?
  • Satisfy the ELDERS' Monetary Demands: Each run, survive by paying tribute to three ELDERS. They'll challenge players by introducing devious game-changing TRIBULATIONS. Fail and PERISH. Succeed and become a BALLIONAIRE – then try a new way to win!
  • Master Multiple Boards: Players can build the perfect layout on the Pyramid, but what happens when up is down on the Danger Wheel? Make a skill shot on the Pinball table? Highly varied game boards require fresh theorycrafting!
  • 125+ Triggers, 50+ Boons: Spawn Eggs with a Chicken, cut Coins in half with an Axe, feed a Whale until it blows every ball back out! Get a second chance with the Boomerang, double bonks with the Eject Button and keep the board running smoothly with the Air Conditioner. Win with food, win with weapons… whatever the choice, just make sure to appease the Elders!
  • Play In A Sandbox: Experiment in the Laballatory – hone theories before a run, make a meme, or build an impossibly busted board. Players can share their board with friends and see who can rack up the biggest bucks!
  • Mod Support on Day One: Dream up new triggers and bring them to life with Ballionaire's Lua-based custom content API.
