Hasn't this been on PlayStation? I could have swore I saw it in the FTP section when I was looking through it a couple of days ago. I could be wrong though.

The demo was actually a lot of fun. Was one of the IDXbox demos a while back. It's not a looker graphically, but the physics for throwing the ball and the dunks is enjoyable.

Never heard of this game. But it's actually been in Steam early access since Sept 2023.
But no doubt, this has got to be the biggest Rocket League knock off ever.

Lol. Fucking hell that looks shit.
Where is the Fortnite connection? That's just Rocket League, but with strange looking little people instead of cars.

Maybe? I like Rocket League and Basketball. But if it feels like hte basketball rocket league mode, pass. That mode sucks.

I've played Fortnite and personally I don't see the connection.
This game has some fucked up chibi art style that I really, really hate with a passion.

I like the Metaball studios youtube channel, they have intereting size comparisons.

I can confirm this thing has been on PS since September last year…and it's rare to see a game under 4.0 in ratings on the ps store. Probably not good lol

MS continuing to unintentionally meme Xbox into complete irrelevance. I mean this game looks like a Rocket League mod that's designed to make the game shittier, AND it already flopped on PS5.

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
MetaBall was an amazing UT2004 total conversion which had marble madness-like platforming/puzzle gameplay, some levels were like Sonic speed levels, others wide open collectathons, others puzzle based, it even had side scrolling and top down sections and you swiched to different materials to use more/less weight or magnetic or other ball properties, maybe pull other physics objects tied with a chain, it was quite fun and varied and it was all tied together with a dreamy fairy tale atmosphere and a hub world that gave it NiGHTS Into Dreams vibes. It wasn't perfect or anything, low production values, lacked cut scenes and extra fancy animations to give the atmosphere and presentation a more polished, complete look, but the core gameplay was already spot on. At one point a real sequel was in development but sadly it never got anywhere far. This looks shit
