Stick and Balls

Short description

Stick and Balls is an exceedingly difficult climb up a minimalist tower. Control two balls, separately yet simultaneously, connected by a stick, with other physics shenanigans that are simple to learn, hard to master. The smallest mistake might lead you on a (psychologically) painful fall.
