The second area takes place in the clouds, and there is a strong wind blowing the ball backwards. The first area of the Nifflas Forest takes place in the forest itself, including a lake and a cave. Most of the skill in the game comes from timing the movement correctly, so that the ball will bounce off of the desired location, platform, or enemy.

The only other controls are the arrow keys, which allows the ball to move left and right. The bounce height is only a small distance off the ground at rest, but the user can hold the Shift key down to increase the height of each subsequent bounce, thereby reaching great heights. The player controls a pink ball which is in a constant state of bouncing up and down. #Modarchive Story is the first of Nifflas's games to experiment with the bouncing ball mechanic that would later be featured in #Modarchive Story 2: Operator Status, as well as the more popular Within a Deep Forest. In order to do so, the pink ball must prove itself against four of the regulars, namely Nifflas, Zepsi, Doragon, and D_Fast Gameplay Said ball has very little experience in composing music, but it is determined to join the #modarchive, so that it may learn from the "eternal wisdom" possessed by the regulars there. #Modarchive Story is also known for being one of the hardest Nifflas games. All of the game's music comes from the #modarchive composers, including Boletus, Decibelter, d_fast, and Zepsi, as well as Nifflas himself. Many of the game's enemies and bosses are based off of Nifflas's friends and regular members of the #Modarchive. The game gets its name from the #modarchive channel on the Espernet IRC servers.
