I took another stab at finishing Switchball tonight, but only managed to make it through four of the remaining six stages before feeling like I’d had enough for the night. The difficulty is fairly high now, depending on things like precisely landing the air ball at multiple spots in a row, parts that make you race to keep up with some other triggered event, positioning crates perfectly and quickly (it’s really easy to get them jammed diagonally into a narrow passage, instead of straight on like you need), and really long sequences without a checkpoint.

The stages are getting really long, too. One had a bronze medal time of over 14 minutes, but with all the checkpoint retries I needed, it wound up taking me nearly 50 minutes to complete it. There’s no way I’m getting any of the medal achievements for this game.

Only two stages left to go now though, so hopefully it’ll only take one more night…
