In the mood for a new 3D platformer? On A Roll 3D [Steam, Official Site] is now available for Linux and looks like it could be interesting.

It has positive reviews overall, and it has been compared to Sonic in style of gameplay.

About the game (Official)
Be prepared to take on spikes, mines, dynamite, conveyor belts, springs, switches, doors, bumpers, lasers, saws, fire, ice, water, electricity, trapdoors and much much more. Each level has three areas you must navigate your way through, battling a host of enemies along the way, then a fourth and final area where you must take on one of the six end-of-level bosses! Grab the protective stars as you go and keep an eye out for the many hidden bonuses to help you on your way.

On A Roll 3D is a classic platformer that mixes the regular 2D format with a 3D twist as many of the platforms cross in front of each other. There are plenty of puzzles thrown in that combine realistic physics and logical reasoning with switches, levers and pushable blocks required to open doors and trapdoors, and to reach otherwise inaccessible places.

They have a DRM free copy on Itch.io but only for Windows. Hopefully they put the Linux version on there as well.

Looks addictive. Could this be the one marble game I've been searching for?

(I'm looking for a Marble Blast reincarnation or other Marble games)

- Must have Full Controller Support
- Must have Steam Cloud

Looks like it could be a winner.
