Rollup: Tilt Ball Arcade
About Rollup
Rollup is a free physics arcade game where you tilt a beam, balance a rolling ball, and survive 24 levels of chaotic hazard zones. You move each end of the beam independently — angle it to dodge gravity traps, catch falling orbs, or herd critters into pens. Six zones, each with unique objectives and layered hazards like spinners, bombs, wind, and rising floors. By zone 4, chaos modifiers kick in — reversed controls, spotlight darkness, or a malfunctioning beam.
Between levels, pick one of three roguelite upgrades. Across runs, earn stars to unlock 25 permanent perks — heavier ball physics, wider beam angle, bonus starting balls, and more. Works completely offline. No account, no data collection.
Inspired by Ice Cold Beer
Rollup is inspired by Ice Cold Beer, the classic 1983 Taito bar arcade game. Same core mechanic — two controls tilting a beam to guide a ball — reimagined for mobile with 24 levels, roguelite upgrades, chaos modifiers, and a permanent perk tree. If you're looking for a way to play Ice Cold Beer on your phone, Rollup is the next best thing.
