Weball: Play Katamari on Websites

Wow - this is surprisingly well done. I really like that it goes from picking up text elements to eventually being able to grab physical images off the site as the ball grows larger.

Tangential but I was playing "Kirby and the Forgotten Dreamland," a little while ago and in the game there's an ability you can absorb called 'needle.' It initially gives you the appearance of a spiky porcupine rolling around in a ball.

However, the evolved version of this ability lets you attach random objects to you, like a tower, a corkscrew, and a cactus, among other things. Rolling around with all these items attached to you seems to be a nod to the game "Katamari Damacy."

Amazing, most addictive things I have seen in ages.

This is such fun. I just went along and rolled up a few websites, including my own. Great little bit of web whimsy.

Google also has their own take on this when you search for Katamari. Click on the little katamari ball.

Slows down real quick
