If you want a more dedicated game that can be downloaded, check out

I believe this is a reverse engineered port based on the Xbox 360 version.

I play it on my steamdeck once in a while. I like having native controller support now that I’m getting older.

I was a developer on that version!

We got the team back together and did a spiritual successor, Marble It Up!. If you are still enjoying the original I’d recommend checking it out (on consoles and Steam).

Haha, thank you!

I have many fond memories playing Marble Blast on a G5 iMac as a teen, I think it came to our Internet-less house bundled with the iMac along with Glider Pro which I think came via CD.

I managed to get Marble Blast ultra running on my Steam deck, but the controls weren't amazing. Marble It Up runs like a top, and scratches that itch I have for the original.
