The gameplay is characterized by unique mechanics that are easy for beginners to grasp but challenging to master, offering a high skill ceiling. While some players appreciate the fun and innovative aspects, others find the pacing slow and certain mechanics, like shooting, awkward. Comparisons to other games, such as "Swing Dunk" and "Rocket League," highlight mixed feelings about originality and execution.
“The core mechanics are unlike any other game I have played, but still easy to pick up for beginners, and hard to master.”
“This game is pretty good, a lot of mechanics involved and I'm sure the skill ceiling can be pretty high in this.”
“Gameplay is fun and unique, a cool alternative to Rocket League.”
“Gameplay is a little weird and not that fun. I feel like if they just made a normal ball game like NBA Street on PS2, this basketball game would be amazing.”
“To be honest, it's just a copy of Swing Dunk with better graphics. I played it, and since I'm used to Swing Dunk mechanics, it was not fun. I had a hard time running it because of my potato PC. It's mindless fun if you want this game, but Swing Dunk is better.”
“The shooting mechanic is also very weird and doesn't feel like it belongs in a game.”
