Marble is a complete remake of the classic wood labyrinth game, in full 3D (both screen) with realistic physics, mp3 music, on-DS visual level editor and more

Features:

- Physics engine, with realistic collision simulation
- Full 3D on both screen, either as one big screen or with 2 different views
- Skybox to simulate 360° environment
- Advanced 3D effects: point light simulation, projected shadows, motion blur...
- Full MP3 music & 3D sounds
- Special bonuses and scenery effects (let's try this mushroom...)
- Integrated (on DS) full featured 3D level editor
- High score & progression saving
- 20 levels, with various environment and progressive difficulty
- Full motion sensor support

...and that's only for this preview version


Note however that there's still some minor graphic glitches in this version as some parts of the 3D engine are unfinished.

How to play:

- Motion sensor : just tilt the DS, and the board will tilt the same way
DON'T FORGET TO CALIBRATE YOUR MOTION SENSOR CORRECTLY WHEN PROMPTED!

- Stylus : Hold the stylus down on the center on the screen, then slightly move in the desired direction to tilt the board. When the pressure is released, the board will come back to a flat position.

really fun game, but I found it intensely frustrating. I think the touch screen controls are a tad too sensitive to do the precise movements that the game demands.

Holy crap! Im impressed with the level of awesome 3d you've got running so smoothly here.

If you could control the ball with the Directional Pad and rotate the camera with L / R that might be cool too.

Very nice work! Ill make some crazy levels and post them a little bit later.

This is amazing. The graphics are great for this game. The only things I would change are:

1. Add a ramp or slope tool in the map editor.

2. Adjust the camera so that there are two modes. I say this because you have to look at the bottom screen while playing. I would like to have a second camera that allows the movement to be in the direction of the ball, not the tilt of the board, therefore you can enjoy the graphics of the top screen.
