Beastieball

HOLY ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ THIS GAME ROCKS

The game having a big enviromental message, along with being critical towards the sports industry hadn't surprised me at all, these are the people behind Chicory, you know what to expect from them. Outside of that, I LOVED this game, mechanics and story work so well creating such a great flavor, the monsters designs are lovely (so many critters that I would had wanted to bring with me!) and is full of QoL features to make the game less grindy and be able to add Beasties to the team easily. Like, this is one of the best build games in the genre, I'm amazed about how well everything works. Two things I want to mention are the Map and the Relationships. The Map is full of hidden areas or small-puzzles that open new paths, it was pretty fun while chasing the Extincts Beasties, how they will appear on empty areas of the map, just for me to discover a new path that I had missed until now. You are clearly are going to enjoy a lot exploring the map. The Relationship system is a small thing that I didn't though about, but it gives so much life to your Beasties. When two Beasties play together, they can form four kinds of Relationships: Rivals, Friends, Besties or Sweethearts. This let them make combos during the matches, but can also trigger small events or interactions between them, for example... My two lesbian lizards, Illugus and Hopra, had some moments during matches were Hopra would get cocky and want to look cool in front of Illugus, missing some shots or taking more damage, at the end of a match, Illugus called Hopra and they talked about her behivour and how Illugus was worried that she would hurt herself, so Hopra apologyzed and in the following matches, she stopped trying to be cool and just played normally. I also had two Rivals that asked me who was better, I told them I loved both and they glared at me. Is something that doesn't impact the gameplay so much, but makes your Beasties feel alive, that they aren't just weapons you can swap all the time, but creatures that care about the rest of the team or can make mistakes. In short, Beastieball is one of the best games from the monster-catching genre, is also a game is quickly becoming one of my top favourites and even if it is still in Early Access, I recommend it to anyone that is interested in a new take to the genre, you will love it.

很棒的类宝可梦游戏

Turns out Pokemon and volleyball go together like peanut butter and chocolate. The rest of the game is fairly barebones, but the combat system shines enough to make up for it. It takes the simplicity of a monster-collecting turn-based RPG, makes every battle a 2v2, forces you to manage positioning, and changes the victory condition to scoring points. Also, the beasties are adorable and the writing is very funny.

really good and cute game! battles are almost puzzle-like in nature but also very sportsy and cute, the interactions between your beasties really sold this to me, and the storys quite good too (and the music)! youre missing out if you dont play beastieball

wowie i love the litlle critters aaaaaaaaaa

I wish i was a baller...

É bem legal o jogo e inovador, sendo um JRPG de grupo de colecionar as criaturas tendo a mecânica de competição de Vôlei em turnos, mesmo em acesso antecipado eu tô adorando jogar e tentar vencer partidas no PvP, particulamente eu amo demais jogos que tem a pegada de colecionar as criaturas pra batalhar, a trilha sonora é boa, a arte do jogo é boa, os beasties também.
