About the Game

Welcome to Gotchaball, the fast-paced platformer sports game where quick reflexes, smart tactics, and high-energy action are key. In Gotchaball, your goal is to chase, dodge, and outsmart your opponents as you race to capture totems and secure victory!

Jump into competitive couch multiplayer, with both Free-for-All and Team-based modes that keep every match exciting and unpredictable. Whether you're running to capture the ball or chasing down the current holder, every second counts in this dynamic, sports-inspired platformer!

Core Gameplay

Gotchaball is all about the thrill of chasing and escaping. When you don’t have the ball, your objective is simple: hunt down the ball-holder and take control. But once you’ve got the ball, everything changes—now it’s your job to outmaneuver and outrun your opponents while you work to capture totems and score points.

Capturing totems scores you points, but it won’t be easy—your rivals will use everything at their disposal to knock the ball out of your hands. With constant shifts between offense and defense, Gotchaball offers a fast-paced, dynamic gameplay experience that rewards both strategy and skill.

Fast-Paced Platforming Action: Jump, dash, wall-cling, and sprint your way across vibrant pixel art arenas. Gotchaball’s movement system is built for speed and fluidity, letting you seamlessly navigate obstacles and pull off epic plays in the heat of battle.

Multiple Game Modes: Test your skills in chaotic Free-for-All matches where it’s every player for themselves, or team up for intense Team battles where teamwork and coordination are key.

Capture totems : The objective is simple: get the ball and capture the totems. But it won’t be easy—your opponents will be doing everything they can to stop you! Stand near a totem with the ball to capture it, but beware: once a totem is captured, it explodes, KO'ing any opponents nearby.

Master the Art of the Chase and Escape: The heart of Gotchaball lies in its asymmetric gameplay loop. Whether you're chasing down the ball-holder or dodging your way to freedom, every match offers intense moments where the roles can flip in an instant. As a chaser, your goal is to outmaneuver and tackle your opponent to steal the ball, but once you have it, the pressure is on to escape the hunters. Stay one step ahead, outsmart your opponents, and capture totems to score points. Adapt your strategy on the fly—will you be the hunter or the hunted?

Master the Art of Item Timing: Items in Gotchaball are your key to gaining the upper hand. Whether it’s forcing an opponent to drop the ball or setting up a game-changing KO, every item can shift the tide when used with precision. Time your throws perfectly to get a "Lit" bonus that can knock out opponents and clear the path to victory! Creativity and quick thinking are rewarded—catch your rivals off guard and seize the moment!

Replayability and Skill Mastery: With each match offering new ways to outsmart your opponents, Gotchaball rewards fast thinking and skillful play. As you improve, you'll discover even more creative ways to secure victory, whether through movement, tactics, or clever use of items.
