Gameplay

The game features a variety of biomes to explore, each with unique Beasties.

Players tour the world, signing Beasties to defeat the eight ranked coaches.[4] When playing volleyball, the player can have two Beasties on the field, with another three on the sidelines. During each turn, the player can make three moves such as passing or changing their position before the ball is hit over to the other side. Beasties take damage when hit, and that damage is dependent on the distance between them and the net. A match ends when a team is wiped.[5] As Beasties grow closer with each other, they gain access to new special abilities that help during matches.[6]

Development

The game was announced during the 2023 Day of the Devs Summer Game Fest event, followed by a Kickstarter campaign launched soon after.[7]
