This is going to be a Marble Blast Platinum/Marble Blast Gold megathread.

About
Marble Blast Gold is a puzzle sort of game where you get to be a marble and roll across levels with various objects and obstacles, there is about I think 100 or so levels in the game, I believe this game is abandonware, since distribution stopped in 2011, and MBG was no longer for sale, so you can find a copy of the installer somewhere online, google it.
Release
The release for Marble Blast Gold was on May 9, 2003, and was being sold by Garage Games.
Lots of people liked the game and bought it.
Custom Levels
There was a user opportunity to modify the game and make custom levels of their own.
To date there are about over 1,800+ custom levels, and I believe still being made.
Modifications
Users of the game could alter the game by going into its core files and for example changing the marble color.
A tutorial on how you would do so is Here.
This tutorial was helpful to me as well to change the color.

Marble Blast Platinum
Marble Blast Platinum featured more levels the user could play, it was a free fan made expansion to the game.
You can see it Here.
Anyway, it featured of a new font system and is still being updated to this day since 2007.
The expansion pack has gone through alot of changes, and is still loved by users to this day.
Youtubers!
I only have one Youtuber that is a good marble blast player, and Here he is.
Post any youtubers you probably have found and or watched their videos below!

The game is definitely abandonware. The only place you can legally obtain the game is via here:

I beat this ages ago on my old eMac. B)
Now I play Marble Blast Ultra (rarely) via XBLA.

Alright, I'll supply download links if we can, are we allowed to since its abandonware?

Well, considering the Mac Game Store still sells it, it might be considered piracy.

The one I'm probably supplying is a PC download link, the Mac Game Store only sells the Mac version of the game.

Making levels was so much fun, excellent game.

type endgame(7); as soon as you join a level to beat it instantaneously

I used to LOVE this game. It was the best.

I guess then it is considered abandonware....for only the PC side for now, sorry for you mac users.

This game reminds me of Monkey Ball.

and then AV gave monkey ball to SEGA D=

i remember at my friend's house if i spoke like an asian grandma he would instantly lose the level no matter what

we named it "curse of the asian grandma"

Someone ported the marble blast ultra game to the PC.

But I think it might just be the files from instantplay or whatever it was called.
EDIT: Is it me or does the Marble Blast Platinum installer not work?
