Maybe once you have the hang of the controls it gets better, but I couldn't understand them at all.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The graphics are astounding the music is cool.

You don't move the ball, you change the gravity. So if you hit up, you only change the gravity to pull the ball up; if you hit down, you change the gravity to pull the ball down.\r\n\r\nThe key to movement is to time the key hits so that the combination of gravity (up, down, left, right) moves the ball the way you want.  once you get the hang of it, we found it to be quite fun.<\/p>","title":"Momentum"}
