The first week for Ball X Pit was pretty good, according to Devolver Digital and developer Kenny Sun. They rolled out statistics for the action-roguelite game and revealed it’s sold over 400,000 copies so far.

Ball X Pit has drawn comparisons to Vampire Survivors, Loop Hero, and Balatro. The fast-paced, brick-breaking game sees players using and fusing 60-plus balls to defeat foes. In addition, when not blasting baddies, Ball X Pit is about reconstructing Ballbylon with more than 70 building units. Doing so leads to new power-ups as well as characters to utilize.
