Briefly explain your use of the theme
Sports required people to use their physical bodies. Pathetic. Sports 2 transcends this limitation, as players astrally project their spirits wherever they want, however they want, to play in competitive games together, no matter how far apart they are.

I don't know what this is. I tried to work it out, but, I still couldn't! I'm very proud of you for having created it tough! It seems so well put together and is very impressive, but you're gonna lose a lot of people, dropping them in at the deep end. A tutorial video, an in game getting-started mode, or even just hints while you play, would help a lot.
[x/p from thread] Very imaginative little game. It seems like it'd be interesting to learn but unfortunately the controls and lack of direction really make it too unapproachable. There seemed to be some difficulty problems (opposite team was really too good at catching outs. A good strategy seemed to be defensive walls but it wasn't very fun) and oddness of control (trying to get the ball going in any specific direction, especially on the fly like that with the camera bouncing, just wasn't happening). Besides that, there seems like it would be a neat little old-school baseball game with a trippy setting if the systems could be iterated out. I'm definitely impressed with the amount of systems involved! Oh, I also noticed that the audio seemed to jump between whisper quiet and loud?
Thank you! I agree; I definitely would have wanted to balance the difficulty and such a lot more if I had more time. Most of the audio is generated on-the-fly with a speech engine I didn't make, so I'll just blame that for any and all audio issues 😅.
Ooh, on-the-fly speech engine, that's cool too lol!
Love'd how weird this one was and the amount of work that was put in. The more I played the more I could see how much content there was, really impressed.
Took me a few rounds to figure out what was going on and how to do things but for me that was part of the fun.
Slam dunk for the win.
Thank you! There's definitely a steep learning curve; which I've realized is a trend in a lot of the games I make. I think this means I need to get better at making tutorials! :P
Always Slam Dunk.
This game confused me almost as much as regular sports do!
Sports 2 is slightly less confusing than regular sports, but don't worry, Sports 3 will be twice as confusing as regular sports!
