Ball's Mod
SteamAbout Ball's Mod
What is Ball's Mod?
Ball-shaped fighters. Orbiting weapons. Pure physics chaos. Throw a fighter into an arena, give it a weapon that spins around on contact, and let the physics sort it out. Weapons hit automatically as they orbit — your job is to build the loadout, not aim the swing.
Build Your Own Weapons
Ball's Mod is a weapon playground. The game ships with a full Weapon Lab where you can build weapons from scratch and see changes live:
•
Melee blades that orbit at any speed, size, and angle
•
Ranged weapons that fire projectiles automatically
•
Dual wielding — mix a sword on one side and a bow on the other
•
Attach accessories, particle effects, and custom VFX to any weapon
•
Burn, poison, and ice effects — each with their own stacking mechanics
If you can imagine a weapon, you can probably build it right in the game. No external tools needed.
Build Your Own Arenas
The built-in Map Editor lets you design battlefields from scratch:
•
Place walls, platforms, and destructible blocks
•
Add trigger zones — damage fields, speed boosts, healing areas, knockback traps
•
Set up water zones, gravity fields, and environmental hazards
•
Custom spawn points with directional velocity
Save and share maps as portable folders. Drop them in, they just work.
Build Your Own Effects
Two more editors for the visual side:
•
VFX Lab — multi-track timeline editor for hit sparks, explosions, slashes, and any combat effect you want
•
Particle Lab — full particle system editor with emission shapes, trails, textures, and color curves
Weapons, maps, and effects all use the same portable format. Share your creations by copying a folder.
Make Your Own Rules
Ball's Mod is data-driven from the ground up. You can customize how the game plays:
•
Swap textures, sounds, and animations with zero coding
•
Define weapons, maps, and game rules through simple JSON files
•
Write entirely new game modes — boss fights, survival waves, tower defense
The rules are yours to set. Built-in content and community content use the exact same format. Nothing is locked away.
