Neverball isn’t a new game, but has for a long time been one of the cutest open source games one could possibly have on a desktop computer.

Well, on Feb 2 2009 version 1.5.0 came out, bringing the game’s development out of a long hiatus. The new version sports a huge list of changes, which bring the game to a whole new level of “polished” production-wise.

For those that don’t really know what I’m talking about, Neverball is a 3d platform game, where you roll a ball to collect coins by tilting the platforms it’s on. Along with it comes a mini golf game based on the same engine, called Neverputt. Its attractive and simple design and simple object physics make it a game everyone, regardless of age, operating system or processing power can enjoy (well, almost). In some way you’re lucky, since it’s probably good timing to be checking it out for the first time.

It’s setting is a (pretty web-conscious) pseudo-medieval land full of puns and mathematical absurdity, called the ‘Kingdom, ruled by the game’s creator, ‘King Elseware, and the Council of Great Lords, five people also responsible for parts of the game.
