    You could use marble instead of ball.

    If you don't like "ball", I wouldn't replace it with "marble", neither :/
    Guess you can either come up with a clever wordplay of what the game is about. Or you could imagine a name for the creature :)

    Ballyhoo
    Beanies
    Hoopla
    Tulippy
    Gadgy
    Woopsy
    Woopity

    Gosh, names are hard :D

    Maybee an abit more descriptive name would be better.

    Try to incorporate what your games is about.. Your bouncing balls/orbs via blocks into the goal/basket..

    I get a Cut the Rope vibe from the screens (Due to the way the stars look), so why not call it "Cut the Balls"?

    hehe well the game does not involve any cutting..

    so branding an physics puzzler , an third person action rpg would be.. well odd.. :)

    don't forget to reserve your name when you decide on one before announcing the one you're going with...you never know who is lurking around and also things the name will go perfect with their game. :)

    :p To be serious, something along the lines of marble mania would seem fitting. Marble Roller, Marble Mania, etc.

    I think that'd be quite too generic and not complementing the existence of the characters kinda.
    iprice had some cool suggestions, imo. Scorbital rocks :D

    If you made three minor changes:
    - change ball graphic into a tiny basketball
    - changed the bowl into a little hoop.
    - Play a swish sound effect when the ball enters the hoop.

    You could promote a basketball theme, which might appeal to more people.

    Possible titles:
    - Bonsai Basketball.
    - 3 Point Champ.

    The game was originally about basket balls, but I changed it :p I might make different games with different themes
