Katamari New Year!
If you enjoy this game and would like more, consider a donation. ^^^
It's the New Year Ball Drop but with a Katamari Damacy ball of your own creation!
Instructions
Roll around, sprint, jump and collect items that are at most 10% of your mass. As your mass grows, you can collect larger and larger things.
When the 5 minute timer runs out if your ball is more massive than the high score ball, the game celebrates your victory with a New Year countdown just for you!
The game tracks the high score with initials. I wrote this for our New Year's Eve party and the winner walks home with a prize!

A neat concept, but I still think there should be more objects and maybe an Endless mode (which will not effect the high score)
Both great suggestions!
Cool project, thanks for using this model. Seeing it in action is very cool!
Thanks for the 3D model and for swinging by to play the game!
I hope this game stays available to play long after New Year. It's some good katamari rolling. :)
Thanks, Tom. The game will continue to be available. Roll on!
Edit: great score, by the way!
