Hamsterball Gold

Hamsterball is a 3-D computer game made by Raptisoft. It is based on Marble Madness which was released in 1984. The object of the game is to roll a hamster in a ball through many obstacle courses, called races, while on a time limit. There are lots of obstacles along the way.

Types of tracks

These levels are in order of levels

*Warm up race- The Warm up race is the first level you start with. There are no real enemies. This level shows the basic concepts of how this game works
*Beginner race- This is the first level to have an enemy in it, Jorge the 8-ball. This level is slightly longer and has bumpers
*Intermedate race- A bigger challenge for the young player. This level has longer tubes, and even mouse traps that fling you in contact
*Dizzy race- This level involves any turning/revolving obstacles (hence the name Dizzy Race). This also involves tar, and also the first level to unlock a new arena (the other 3 already has its own arenas already unlocked
*Tower race- This level is in a partially medieval theme including catapults, maces, drawbridges, and windmills. Also features a purple "thing" in one turret.
*Up race- This level basically includes anything that makes you go up. This includes Vacuum tubes, elevators, and the speed cylander. Also features a button that gives you an extra 5 seconds
*Neon race- This level is made up completely of lights. There are light bridges that disappear like light. Other than that it's basically nothing much.
*Expert race- This level has a "Stuntman" theme, including a new enemy, named Bonk the hammer, the twin saws that can break your hamsterball within contact. Also features a bell that gives off 5 extra seconds within contact
*Odd race- This level has many things that clearly breaks the laws of physics. If you go up certain ramps onto a wall, you roll on that wall as if it were the ground. Also features 2 tiny Jorges, but in one case you shrink. The Goal also hangs like one of those wall-floors.
*Toob race- This level is the only level with translucent tubes. There are saws that "cut" through the path you might go to, while there's a smaller one that makes a hole, just to add as an obstacle. There are new enemies called the Block Dawgs. There is also another set of bumpers, similar to the ones in the beginner race, except it bounces you more randomly.
*Wobbly race- This level has many unbalanced roads (hence the name wobbly). There is a massive set of wobbly dominoes, but you may fall of if not careful.
*Glass race- The Glass Race is made up of glass. The traction is decreased in this level
*Sky race- The Sky Race is featured in a background that shows high altitude. There are pop-up pegs that only slows you down, and a blue ball randomly appears out of nowhere.
*Master race- This level shows a concept of when all the past enemies "want revenge". There are certain paths that requires lots of agility, speed, and accuracy.
*Impossible race- The final level. This level features gears, thin paths, and weird architecture

Trivia

*in the time trial/party mode races when you try to go on a locked race, you get a message "you need to reach this race on a normal or frenzied tournament", this is an error, you actually unlock a race by reaching the race when you have unlocked the arena for the race BEFORE the one you are trying to unlock. (Would someone please clarify that statement, or am I just dense.)

*if you go on the races on Party Games, you'll notice that sometimes, the race is mirrored.

*in the odd race, if you look around a bit, there are "walls" you can walk on that are quite off track.

*sometimes on tournament when you start a race, the camera zooms from the end of the course round to the start point, before starting the race.

*In the Toob arena, there is a bumper in the middle, if you can come back from a fall onto this circle, you can only be harmed by an opponent falling onto the bumper.

*In some races (usually it's the Up race for me) you can't see the track for a certain period of time.
