IF THE GAME CRASHES ON START:
Install the XNA 4.0 distributable (located in 'IFCRASH' folder in .rar)

Update:
Fixed 'infinite ball' crash (hopefully).
Fixed bug w/ Launcher targets going off screen (no-win condition).
Fixed some typos, added 'you win' text.
Can close game by pressing Escape.

UPDATE: Added folder to .rar with non-installing .exe, can just run that directly. Let me know if there are still any issues.

NOTE: If you encounter any bugginess (like tons of balls spawning super fast for no reason), click the stop button and then the play button.

Spheres is a minimalist music creation/puzzle game. Fire balls from launchers that bounce around the environment, creating sound as they go. Work your way through an (unfortunately short) assortment of levels or try out free play mode!

Game includes a grand total of two images and one very small audio file. Few assets and few mechanics, but hopefully still a good amount of depth in the result :)

Check out the included readme file, especially if you plan to use free play mode!
