GooBall

GooBall is a Mac computer game by Over The Edge Entertainment, now Unity Technologies, and published by Ambrosia Software. In the game, the player assumes the role of an alien stranded on Earth. "Goober", as the alien becomes known to the CIA, is stuck inside a life support device made of protoplasm (hence the title). The gameplay is similar to the Super Monkey Ball series in that the player tilts the environment, which causes Goober to roll around in it, collecting gems and making his way to the end gate. Unlike in Super Monkey Ball, however, Goober can stick to surfaces by holding down the command key.
