100% my favourite childhood game, no doubts about it. The songs are masterpieces, the levels are amazing and it would be really great to be able to experience it again on modern hardware, the disk I played the game off of back in the day died a couple years back.

It's a childhood game of mine and one of my most memorable gaming memory. The game felt special, as the movement felt solid, and the each level bring something new. The split screen makes it even better to race with a friend, and 4 player brawl was a lot of fun. The game still age pretty well too. I was very much into marble race back then and this game delivers everything about it, and it brings memory to see this again.

I've spent hours upon hours racing my friends in this game when I was a kid. I still play this game once a couple weeks to this day, and I will never ever delete it. It's a great party game, full of wacky surprises on every race track, fun music, and timeless visual style that still looks good today.
This was one of my favorite PC games as a kid! I was never very good at it, but always had a great time with it nonetheless. I bought it on Big Fish Games, but BFG's DRM makes it very difficult to run on my Linux PC or Steam Deck.

I started playing just recently and I really like It, I got hooked immediately. It's a difficult game but mastering It gives a big payoff! I would love to see It easly available and visible for new possible players!

One of my 2 favorite childhood games (this and bejeweled) that are absolutely amazing and music composed by Skaven252 (Peter Hajba). Simple yet fitting cartoony art style!! Sky race and neon race are my favorite races. I hope you have good control with keyboard or mouse (maybe a large mouse pad too 😁) if you want to perfect this game. The sequel which is in development will have a level editor!!
the best game of the old childhood pc games that i loved to play it hamsterball will come back and im happy about that its really cool to know !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of my all-time favorite/classic games for PC. Ricochet, Platypus and HamsterBall are Old-School Gaming Gems! I still remember playing Up Race back in the day in the demo version and cried for the first time I was able to play Neon Race after purchase. Rodent Rumble is amazing and there are family memories that'll remain forever from this great game! All hail HamsterBall!

Clearly up there with one of my biggest childhood games. Its crazy how I've even managed to get through this game. Its clearly not easy but as a small goofball I clearly made it through.
Charming graphically, with a unique visual style... Playing this as a child, the incredible soundtrack would help play a part in shaping my taste of music for the rest of my life. The hamster deserves to be seen, the music deserves to be heard.
Those games also need your vote!
