Ranked from 126 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does your game fit the theme?
Every time the volleyball is hit, its durability counts down. Rally too long and the ball shatters, ending the round. Players must balance keeping the volley alive with scoring before time literally runs out for the ball.

I ended up winning! This is a pretty inventive concept on the count-down theme. It's more deeply engaging than I thought it would be, requiring that I pay attention to my opponent's moves and my own score as best as I can before the volley limit is reached. I loved the graphics too. Great challenge!

Pretty solid Pong X Hot Potato take! Really liked the little intro cutscene showing how the countdown + popping

Submitted

pretty good AI on the enemy gotta say, good job

Submitted

Fully expected disappointment, got a fun game that is surprisingly polished in the key areas. Well scoped and well executed !

Submitted

Nice idea! Sometimes it's a bit hard to hit it over instead of hitting it up but overall it's a neat game!!

Submitted

Great idea, and the AI is actually pretty good at the game! I didn’t fully understand how the winner is decided though hahaha.

Submitted

A simple yet really well done little volleyball-type game! 
Liked the idea of being able to "stall" the remaining bounces by bouncing it to yourself over and over. 

The AI felt a bit too good, seemed like it was close to impossible to score on him, which meant that all my games ended in a draw. 

Great work :)

Very fun game!

This was a truly creative game. The audio and simplistic design were nice. Managed to win once but I couldn't really say that whenever I scored it was my actions rather a bunch of rng stuff in the AI. But it was great congrats.

Submitted

The ball durability mechanic is such a clever idea. Nice work!

I'd love your feedback on my game too!

Submitted

Took many times to draw and I'll take that. I did got shot up a couple of times

Submitted

cool fun game ! i like it

Submitted

Super fun idea!

Submitted

highly creative, a volley ball nim game! Really like that I can choose to stall with the ball to get the last hit on the opponent's side, though I would have preferred if the gameplay wasn't pure physics.

Submitted

Hot potato as a volleyball game, such a nice concept, good job mate

Submitted

Shame it ends after only one rally, but it's a good basis for a more involved game

Submitted

Great volleyball game! I think it would be even more fun if players could jump to chase or reach the ball.

Submitted

Cool concept! Maybe adding a combo hit or something that is hard to pull off but more likely to score a point could be a fun way to make scoring more feasible. Had a hard time getting a score on the opponent. Or just frame it as you have to survive until the ball explodes and that is the win condition?

Submitted

lightweight volleyball game. It's pretty simple for player to control and get the hang quickly, but I think the opponent is too smart (maybe I'm just bad)

Submitted

Fun and creative little volleyball game! Makes me wish i had a local coop mode so i could play against friends though!
