Multiplayer Marble Game – Collaborative Unity Project

Play Now

Check back every Monday for updates

Welcome to our all-new collaborative project. We tried to do a joint project with our subscribers before. However, the scope of the project was a bit too much. While I will return to that project sometime in the future we have a new project that will be much easier to complete.

There are countless ball games out there on the game markets but nothing like what we want to create. I want to create a multiplayer race game that has a variety of levels created by the players. I want to collaborate with all of you to create something everyone can enjoy.

In order to participate in this project, you will need to become a supporter on our website. As a supporter, you will receive exclusive free access to our Marble Level Builder Packager. This package will help you to create the levels for this game. The package includes basic Platforms that have a simple drag and drop design flow. We have also included moving, ghost, and launch platforms in this package.

  2. You must be a supporter to participate in this project

  • New to InfoGamer? Register for your free account here.

  • Your display name is permanent.
  • To pick colors or scroll the high scoreboard click and drag instead of using the mouse wheel.
  • Infogamerhub.com will never ask for passwords or personal account information.
  • Warning turning on the edges of the cube can make the snake leave the cube, be careful. 😉
  • Nathan and Mark like to compete and play our games too, but don’t worry our high scores and daily entries don’t count towards winning the prizes. See if you can beat our high scores! Our display names are Nathan IGH (DEV) and Mark IGH (DEV).
  • The more subscribers we get, the better prizes we can offer, so please share this post!
  • See below for details about the competition rules and regulations.

Trouble Shooting

  • WebGL is not supported on mobile devices but if you go to setting and use the view as a desktop version it seems to work on my phone.
  • If you are experiencing other troubles with Snake Cubed Please leave us a comment at the bottom of the page.
  • If you don’t see the leader board on the game after logging in your high scores won’t be recorded. Let us know of the issue with your game display name and we will try and help.

How to Play

Controls: To turn the snake, use keys A and D or the Left and Right arrows. If you have a touch screen, you can touch the left and right side of the game screen to turn those directions.

Objective: The snake slithers around the cube. Control the snake to collect blocks which will make your snake grow. The longest snake gets the highest score.

Warnings: Running the snake into its own body will end the game. Turning the snake the wrong direction on the edges of the cube can result in the snake leaving the playfield. This is difficult to recover from and will also likely end the game.

Potential Future Prizes

We have ideas for potential prizes in future competitions and would like your input. Some of the links below are for products we’ve used and would recommend. Others have good reviews. Leave us a comment at the bottom of the page with your suggestions for future prizes. We’re still thinking this through, but to avoid exorbitant shipping costs, some prizes may be sent as an equivalent Amazon gift card in lieu of the listed prize. Links below are affiliate links.

I recently picked up the Logitech MX keyboard and have found it to be a great keyboard. It’s responsive and easy to switch between different devices. I have not tested this keyboard for gaming or longevity but it is pretty awesome to use one keyboard instead of 3. What do you guys think of this being a future prize?

We could also offer a $100 Amazon gift card and you could put it towards a monitor like this one. It has good specs and pretty good reviews.

We have been using a similar Blue microphone for our recordings and gaming and have found this microphone to be sufficient. This could be another option for a future prize.

Best of luck winning the prizes. We need your help to continue awarding prizes and setting up other competitions like this one. Please remember to share this Snake Cubed Competition post and thanks for reading.
