"WhizzBall!" is an online puzzle game from the early 2000's, created by Andries Odendaal for the Discovery Channel's portal of Flash games for kids. Many children and adults alike enjoyed solving puzzles made by other players, building their own puzzles, and competing for a high score.
Unfortunately, the game was eventually taken offline. Archived versions could no longer connect to the servers, leaving the game mostly unplayable. Now, as a game developer who enjoyed playing "WhizzBall!" as a kid, I was determined to fix this. With some reverse-engineering effort and help from tools like the Ruffle emulator, I'm happy to say we can now play this game again!
