Initial thoughts are very positive.

-Controls are very responsive. No Super Monkey Ball bullcrap here. There's calibration for those who have problems with it.
-Gameplay is great. You can change into various forms of water, and that helps you get around the levels and gain access to other spots.
-Presentation/Graphics are some of the best on the App Store. There's a tutorial to start you out; and before each level starts, it zooms out, gives you a broad perspective of the level, and focuses on all important areas. There's hidden gems to collect throughout the levels, so it's not just all "get from point A to point B in the fastest time." Menus are fast and responsive.
-Sounds are the only standout goof up so far. The water-sloshing sound gets old kinda fast. Highly overlookable, though.

I'm already happy I bought this game.

Thumbs up

I just played a couple levels and it's really well made. The sounds are just okay, but the music is good. The gameplau overall is very nice. I could definitely reccomend it if you're considering it.

OK! You convinced me.

And it's better than I thought it would be! The control is perfect, the graphics just nice (it's not an A. Mercury) and the gameplay really fun!

We've seen some games with ball plus a 3D scenario lately and this is one of the best!!

I'm a fan!

It's sorta like Super Monkey Ball (which I enjoyed) and Loopy Lab (Which I LOVED) met at a bar one night, got sloppy drunk and woke up in the same bed the next morning wondering who the other was...

Loopy still can't understand why she ever thought Monkey would call her back. She didn't even tell him she was pregnant.

Any way, she named that baby Hydro Tilt and loves it dearly. Loopy isn;t sure if she will ever tell Hydro the story of its real dad... but it doesn't really matter.

Um... Uh.. yeah, This is a good game.

Good story. That explains everything.
This really is a good game. I was afraid it'd be crappy, but it's a lot of fun so far.
