Update 05/27/2018: This game has 6 keys defined and 1 doesn't work. That is how good this fucking game is,,, also if you see the store videos even the developer can't beat the levels... Just wondreful fucking fuck
Don't let the fake positive reviews fool you. This game is a 5 minute investment.
Short description:
- No music
- No gameplay
- Horrible controls
- Ridiculous physics
Detailed description:
Any game's main goal is to entertain and provide fun to the player. In case of the hardcore games the fun resides in the crafted difficulty that challenges the skills of the player(Ghosts & goblins or the well-known Dark Souls saga). There are so many “games” that the only thing they provide is broken mechanics, lack of gameplay or just terrible level design.
Well, “Not without my poop” is a conglomerate of all of the lacking parts mentioned before. The part that I most hate of this game (personal opinion) is the control system: doesn’t make any sense. There is a huge lag between input and result.
The second thing is the lack of music. Nowadays, anyone can compose a simple theme and any game should have at least main music.
Finally, the whole UI is just that…. A big piece of “poop”
Overall, it looks like a 10 mins project or some kid's school homework. I wouldn’t waste my money even though is a cheap game. Just take a look at the positive review's played time...

10/10 Best game I've played in my life.
Even tho I can't move longer than 3 seconds, it made me laugh the loudest in a long time.
Love it.

This game is genuinely terrible and I hate it unironically.
If you like crappy physics "rage" games like QWOP enough to pay for them, then this game is for you. QWOP is...interesting, but I sure as hell wouldn't pay to play it. This game is a polished turd in every sense of the word. The controls are unforgiving, and playing this feels worse than playing a physics puzzle. I would actually rather play Balls and Magnets than this, and if you've seen my review on that game, you know how I feel about it.
Anyways, don't be fooled by the comparison to QWOP. This game is not like getting over it, which is actually playable. The amount of time it took me to get past the first level in this game was absurd, and actually makes up 100% of my playtime, because after I did that, and saw what level 2 looked like, I quit immediately. 0.1 hours (5 minutes) doesn't seem like a lot? Consider this: level 1 is a 5-meter-long straight shot. It took me 5+ minutes to do something that in any other game would take you 5 seconds.

A game for those with excellent poop control.
And for those interested in dung beetle nature stories.

it's a pretty solid game. It looks really basic, but the faecal of the matter is that it's so smooth and is not sloppy at all. And yes, it is possible to get to the end in one piece.
It can be a bit challenging, but if you relax, you can get into the rhythm and let your movements ease.
For just £0.79, I can guarantee that you'll have a ball... of poo.

This game is truly a master piece. Like they all say, this game made me tear up on countless events. Reminds me when james bought that lego game, damn. The nature and graphics are beautiful, it reminds me of uncle ben from spiderman, I have no idea why but it does. Without this game in my library, I do not think I'd even be alive today. The few minutes I played this game I already started getting bricked up from the spider (or :cock: roach) I'll never know why I love this game so much, like dude. This game for 1.20$ CAD is better than most video games i've ever played. I personally think its better than games like, doom, payday2, payday 2, payday 2, eu4, eu4, eu4 and eu4 like man, I love this game. I wish there was currency's in this game because I'd buy it without EVEN thinking of my financial situation (im in major debt) ANYWAYS, man I love this game!!

Someone polished a ball of poop and now you can roll it around. Or don't, and save your $1.
----------------------
This is a positive review with a big warning: Watch really closely the trailers on the store page, because that is the entire game. You're a dung beetle rolling a ball of poop through a series of puzzles. If that's not funny or interesting to you, move along as there's nothing else to see.
Mechanically it's a ball rolling physics puzzle, if you let the ball roll too fast you fall off and die, if you roll too slow you won't have the space to begin momentum again and trying to change direction... you'll fall off and die. And that's what you are going to do many times over: fall off and die.
The difficulty curve isn't so much a curve as it is a steep cliff at the start that quickly inverts and dumps the cliff on your head. I'm reminded of other frustration simulators like Getting Over It or QWOP. But that's the point, to test your limits at perfecting a particular mechanic and see how far you can go and how quickly.
This is definitely not a game for everyone, you have to deeply want a challenge and be willing to put in the time to master it. And the theme is funny (to me) but is obviously going to get old quick even if you laughed at it the first time.
But, it's a $1 game that delivers well on what it's trying to do: force you to learn how to roll a ball of poop without going splat.
EDIT: Note the game is nearly impossible with a keyboard, you'll want to use a controller to have any real chance at progress, and it still won't be easy. But the analog stick gives you far more control over your speed and turning angles than you'll get from a keyboard.
---
Bottom line: It's a $1 game, and you get what you pay for.

I'm not sure how the little dung beetle was able to make a ball of poo this big, but it sure is fun to run around on.

Originally I was going to downvote this... then I discovered you can use a controller, and it's SOOOO much easier, and more enjoyable.
If you play this with a keyboard, it's incredibly frustrating, in a bad way (this is from someone who loved QWOP and Octodad).
With a controller it immediately becomes possible, and I imagine those complaining about the game have only used a keyboard.
