Dinky Ball was the platform game linked by Apple ID 328864389 in the article at this September 10, 2009 URL. The objective was to take a ball to the top of a tower before time ran out.
Two inputs, a changing route
The historical controls used the iPhone or iPod touch accelerometer for movement and a screen tap for jumping. Tower blocks added effects such as acceleration, deceleration, jumping and teleportation. The route was therefore more than a flat path: the player had to consider what a surface would do to the ball.
The original feature list advertised 60 increasingly difficult levels, saved state on exit, three-dimensional graphics, music and sound effects. It also claimed a particular amount of playtime and broad age suitability; those promotional estimates are not treated as measured findings in this recovery.
Tilt steering and a separate jump action create a coordination problem. A useful way to describe the design is to separate directing the ball from deciding when it should leave the surface, without assuming a hands-on result about responsiveness.
Current availability and sensor compatibility remain unverified. No level or physics test was performed. This overview records the documented controls and tower mechanics rather than borrowing details from another rolling-ball game.
