But you <em>will <\/em>find a Balatro-like combo-based roguelike, where the DVD logo&#8217;s bounces\u2014here, a finite amount\u2014contribute to an escalating score threshold that you have to meet within a certain number of turns.<\/p>\n<p>Before we proceed, I should note that BadIdeasDigital has left a disclaimer saying &#8220;the models in this game state DUD. Any resemblance to existing icons or imagery is a coincidence and not directly intended.&#8221; I&#8217;m only continuing to refer to them as DVDs as a reflection of my own delusions.

When hit by the logo, some apply multipliers to that bounce&#8217;s score. Others are consumables that might give a one-off chunk of points or increase the DVD logo&#8217;s speed when hit.<\/p>\n<p>Then there are more involved tiles, like the Mailbox that adds a +1 point bonus whenever it\u2014or any other mailbox\u2014is hit. And there&#8217;s more: After every successful round, you can choose between three offerings that add a passive effect. I&#8217;m fond of The Thing, which gives a 25% chance that your DVD logo will spawn a smaller, baby DVD logo to continue bouncing in its place once its own bounces expire.<\/p>\n<p>In good Balatro-like fashion, your choices of tiles and offerings can feed into each other, offering powerful synergies to catapult your score counter higher. In my other window, I&#8217;ve got an array of mailboxes, and each turn I have a chance of spawning a UFO that moves perfectly horizontally to trigger the tiles it bounces between. With some properly positioned mailboxes, I&#8217;ve got an escalating feedback loop of points.<\/p>\n<p>DVD Bounce World is just a prototype, but it&#8217;s a promising one\u2014and not just because it gives me an excuse to watch that logo ping pong around like we did in the Before Times.
