Looking for a game title! Please help! ;)

[trasher]

Ok. I'm looking for two different games. Sorry for not providing much info but this is all i remember:

Game 1:

In this game you control a bouncing ball (possibly a tennis-ball) in which you must prevent falling down holes. The ball is seen with a top-down view and you are continuosly bouncing on tiles. The levels scroll from top to bottom. The music was pretty cool I think. I do not mean Marble Madness.

Game 2:

This game also has some sort of ball as a main character. But this one doesn't bounce I think. It's a very old game, possibly from 1990. You must balance a huge ball or similar around a level. You can fall down in various holes and different stuff happen. There are also different kinds of tiles you can roll over (for example arrows make you go different ways etc.)

----

I would be eternally grateful if someone could help me figure out the names of these two games.

Thanks in advance

Game 2:

That must be the game "Rock `n Roll"
Ahhh, those were the days  :-)

No it's not. The ball that you control is much bigger. And (correct me if i'm wrong) the "ball" has a face with eyes, mouth etc.

Game 1 was probably Bounder, but I only remember this on the 8-bits (Amstrad CPC in my case). A yellow tennis ball had to bounce on continuously scrolling tile-based levels. Tiles had goodies to pick up on them, speedup arrows and so on. There were also enemies to avoid. Very frustrating yet addictive (one more go).

Amstrad version:

Could Game 1 be that one from Core Design?

It was a blue ball... I think it began with a "B"... ... Blob maybe? He even had feet if you made him somersault, if I remember right.

Ok I have a little bit more info about game 2:

It had some funny voice-samples in the game. And the title-song had a sample which sounded like "Ba-dum-ba-dam-ba-dum". Hehe .. It also came originally with the computer when I bought my first Amiga 500 back in the 1990's.  :-D

AAaaah! I finally found out! It was "Cloud Kingdoms" I was looking for!
