Then you wouldn't be able to tell if you were using a helicopter or just holding it.

Personally don't like this idea , rarely ever check the box unless on some random long custom level that I'v been rolling through for 3 minutes+... I think making it hover over your head would be confusing and annoying. Maybe if you could choose display style it could work

I had two ideas for Learn the friction, and Battlecube revisited.


1. How about adding grass .dts models to the grass zone of LTF?

2. How about making the extra parts of BF revisited for MBO to MBP BF revisited? If you can't understand what i mean watch here.

MBP levels are most likely to not change, as these affect the leaderboards. Grass models regardless are for PQ only. Battlecube itself will not change, but may be released as a custom level for PQ.

Add a new button. In the pause menu thing, you know, Exit this level? Add a Return to checkpoint! Every time I fall OOB I forget I had a checkpoint and completly restart the level!

I have a suggestion: The ability to type in multiple destinations for the teleport trigger, and then it would teleport you to a random one of them.

QuArK is still a good map editor

You know what's boring? Opaque marble skins. You know what's not? Glass Marbles!

My friend had a great idea for a new powerup in platinum quest:

A jet plane powerup, it's a superspeed and a gyrocopter together except you don't go down as much as with a gyrocopter. And the whole time you use it your going fast Flying! You woulnt go as fast as a superspeed though and it wouldnt last very long. Please add this feature as it would add alot of fun to the game even if its only in custom levels or something! Thanks!

How about just a ss and gyro? lol.

It would look more neat and pro if it would just hover above the marble and would be new to the history of Marble Blast. ( All the MB Mods have those boxes, (I just dislike em big squares)


Edit: 300th post on this thread.
That's a great idea, I'd love to see it. The floating shape would be transparent ofc

Probably an unusual suggestion but, a variable that is always the player:
currentmarble
When the player picks a marble currentmarble=<picked marble>;
Easyer to mod physics and such and not very hard to do, that is if this would work? hell imma put it in my thread

Reversing controls sounds far more practical than just out of control lol.
Or maybe it could just make everything slow and unresponsive... which is exactly what my MB is like on a normal day

Get yourself drunk and you'll notice Marble Blast is out of control for a few hours.

PQ needs to have a return to checkpoint really due you can get stuck for some time to a place on a level with a time like in thief near the gem on ice and if you get glicthed inside a walll or you are falling to eternity

How about having wallpapers?? I found some when I was digging around in the MBP files, but they were of the old 1.12/1.13 version.

A feature (optional) that, when you hit the finish pad without all the gems, the time at which you hit the pad shows up for a few seconds. So I wouldn't have to hit pause (which isn't possible on LBs) or eyeball it to try to figure out around what time I would have gotten had I got that one diamond I missed.

A time can be beaten, but a path can't be rediscovered. The best path stays forever.

I have a suggestion:

I noticed in the trailer that there were some MPs with !s on them. My suggestion is to make some floating blocks with ?s on them (can you see where this is going?) and when you hit them, a powerup pops out, like in Mario!

Does the entity GarageGames Studios still exist as an operating organization? or has it been dissolved and/or acquired by someone else?
Was it all just absorbed into InstantAction?

It would be cool to have a slow motion powerup when u activate it everything goes slow (time, your marble, moving platforms etc) It could be used to perform super hard tweaks or a fast motion powerup which boost yourmarbles moving speed or a low gravity powerup?

That's a very good idea. However, it could be (mostly) duplicated using a TGTT that slows down frantically-moving MPs along with a TM.
