The art style, character designs, and colours for this are fantastic!
Thanks for saying which PC storefronts it's available on too!
The art and the characters are amazing! I think this games deserves some atention of industry!
how were they made, what software was it made in ?
Everyone play this! I got it Monday and its now my 3rd ever game to be 100% completed, its like watching anime while playing a fun game, 10/10! Can’t wait to see where the story goes
Which are those other 2 games?
Thanks for playing Will!🙏 Looks and sounds like a lot of fun. Cheers and thanks for all you make 🍻
FUN FACT:THIS GAME IS BRAZILIAN!
Yes, Brazilians also know how to make games
BRAZIL MENTIONED
No way, Brazilians only want games for Master System!
I think you meant: THIS GAME IS BRILLIANT!
Ya know, as someone who plays 95% grim stuff: I've been trying to branch out into the antithesis of that: this seems like a great one to add to the list.
I'd suggest checking out "wandersong" in that case if you haven't already. That's the game that started making me give games like this a chance.
@@voodooflux2152 thanks, I'll take a look. Hat In Time is the next big one on my list to try.
Excellent review, very well written and concise. Ya love to see it!
I've played about 3 hours so far.
Really good addition to Game Pass, fun gameplay, funny story and characters. Feels like a mix between Pokemon and games like Mario Tennis.
Really recommend it.
gamepass hmmp you can not review a game from gamepass while it cost 29.99 on ps4 so the review needs to say is it worth 29.99 not oh game pass so nice
@@theelitegamer1980 That makes no sense at all.
@@RomainDelmaire i have a xbox but i play only on ps4 now and this game cost 29.99. it makes sense if you review a game, it's fun on gamepass but maybe you would never buy it for 29.99.. a little research or put in the title xbox/pc review.
what is a review if you only look at gamepass, now it sounds like you would buy it on ps4 for 29.99.
@@theelitegamer1980 uhhh
@@Kswitchem duhh what review is that, review a game also on how much it cost without gamepass.. nice on gamepass, but would you also buy it for 29.99.. i not have gamepass and yeah i know what happened before with netflix i watched 1 hour in a week only so for me it's better to buy.
The art style is like OK KO and The Owl House had a baby, and I love it
This looks awesome! Thanks for putting it on my Radar!
The pokemon vibes are strong, loving it so far
Bro fr I love it
@@dtae8500 the only thing I am kind of disliking is that there's no adventure or exploration whatsoever, but apart from that it's really a nice idea
@@tekekaki There are really no mechanics dedicated to exploration, or really anything outside of matches. Shoehorning in exploration would just introduce negative space and wreck the pacing.
I played the demo and had a good time with it.
Key question is one of the abilities throwing a wrench instead of a ball.
Jokes aside seems like a fun game and I gotta agree the art style really does remind me of something from Cartoon Network
the art style reminds me of A amazing world of gum ball episode you’d find at 6 am
i’m already on episode 6 this game is soooooooo fun i hope they make more games like this
12 hours you say? That sounds a little meatier than I was expecting. Perhaps it is worth a look after all.
Ooooooo, seems neat! I shall wishlist it, thanks for the video!
Great review, this game looks like a ton of fun
"Going to school reminds me of..."
Me: Yu-Gi-Oh! GX?
"...My Hero Academia"
Me: Oh, yeah, I guess that's a thing, too
Lol I mentioned both!
This is deffo making the list
That was a great review. You are really good at that.
Thanks 😊
This looks like it would be a good Switch game... if the performance is good. I'll be keeping an eye on the reviews.
it doesn’t need much in terms of specs. I suspect this will be great to play on switch!
It runs at 60fps on the Switch!
@@hloki Awesome!
This game reminds of a game called super dodgeball on gameboy advance
Dang, I didn't know this game was this new. Really good game though, I basically just stayed up for half a day and beat it in 12 hours.
This reminds me of
Blaseball
so yourselves a favor and look into it
I kinda really wish Knockout City had a similar story mode as this.
that's one of the reasons i didn't buy it
Thank God it doesn't. Not all games must have single player story mode
After actually playing this game, I want to like it. I certainly enjoyed it for a few hours, but after getting a bit into it the gameplay started to rub me the wrong way. Just to many little annoyances that stacked up.
This game has a lot of paper Mario vibes
Been really looking forward to this one!
I’ve just started playing today and I’m glad balloony will be playable
Its on Gamepass!
I love this game 🤩 the art style is cool and Mina funny 😆
I played I like I t I got to episode 7 and also I see how it's like Pokémon by how when you walk past a random npc they may want to fight you
This interests me.
This looks like Golf Story, but for Dodgeball.
This sounds really good! I might have to add it to my Steam wishlist.
a dodgeball game with an anime aesthetic and some dope music? I am so down
This looks like if ok K.O. meets scott pilgrim vs the world the video game, but with dogeball
This really reminds me of OK KO! It's amazing!! :D I'm getting this as soon as I can. This game is my current obsession. Lol
The RPG mechanics and the 2D characters in a 3D world do remind me of another series...
Me over here waiting for someone to upload the songs.
Ive been playing this and its super fun.
Gamepass! Yes!
Sold!
This is so Kuniokun ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
How many playable characters exactly? I'm not sure but I think I didn't unlock all of them
I love think this game came by brazil my country its really good
Sucesso Ivan Freire e Equipe!!! Muito legal!!!
Do you know how to unleash balltime move on PC?
Looks pretty nice
Also on Xbox Game Pass Day 1!
Really? Love that ❤️
it's free on xbox game pass
this should be on epic games free games or twitch
I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOO playing this gem 😍
Love it!
didn't expect much... but this game sucked me in! definitely worth your time
No SWITCH for this game??
This feels like it would be perfect for that platform........
It’s out on switch as well!
looks fun will see if it's worth 29.99
Fun but repetitive and inconsistent in the difficulty.
This is litterally inazuma eleven if it was dodgeball
How is no one mentioning how much this game seems to take some inspiration from the GBA version of Mario Tennis!
I've never played Mario Tennis on the GBA. Maybe I should!?
Exactly Used To Love That Game, Might Grab This As Well 😂
The character designs are great but I’m only 4 hours in and already pretty bored. There’s way too much pointless backtracking in the overworld and the size of the arenas is way too small. The actual gameplay also isn’t anything special and the game is way too easy
Looks pretty damn fun.. for $10 bucks.
Looks cool! Use me as a vessel for tips about other nice sports RPGs if you’d like. I’ll go first with Golf Story.
I need a review of the walking shitpost that is dodgeball
Reminds me of paper Mario
a comment for the almighty algorithm !!
WOOOOOOOO!
Bro dodgeball
🇧🇷🇧🇷
It lookd really good. It remind me Inazume Eleven (DS games) and Paper Mario. 😁
Mojojojo
Reminds me of ok ko
Thank u game pass very cool
What's that? A positive Escapist review? Now that's a rare sight. Too bad I have no interest in this particular game whatsoever ._.
Otto
Reminds me more of Inazuma Eleven
Its ko 😂
Played the first 4 hours. It's almost the game we want. The characters are ugly. The blocking is not very accurate. Your party needs AI and it has none and just passes balls to you. Your party gets killed/hit if you don't block for them (you press block they do their thing) as you are trying to do your thing. It's hard to put into words how its just off. 6/10. I want more of this but it needs to be done better.
I love the character design!!! To each his own I guess. Also, I've caught, or blocked three to four balls in a row before, so I think that mechanic works just fine.
I do agree that the party ai needs some tweaking, but I'm having so much fun with the game that it is a minor concern for me.
Buying tomorrow
Reminds me of ok ko
