Alex The Ball

Short description

Alex has turned into a ball after an experiment went wrong. Things get even more complicated when he finds himself in a parallel universe. A physics-based 3D platformer that can be completed in one go, if you don't fall, die, or quit.

Review count and SteamSpy's owner range agree well enough to narrow the estimate down to this band. Multiplied by the $1.99 launch price — there is not enough price history for this game to weight the copies by what they actually sold for. Before Steam's cut, VAT and refunds. How these numbers are calculated.
