SPORTSBALL

Local Multiplayer soccer-style game, with much love to Hokra.

Each player may choose from one of 6 Sport Styles with different abilities.




^ Initial mock and tiles.




^ Half working arena.  Scoreboard / fans work enough.  Baseballer runs circles around Soccer Dude.

Player Buttons:
) Kick Ball Button
) Press Fast to Dash Fast Button
) Ability Button

Players hold the Sport Ball out in front of them a bit, so if an opponent runs by they are able to snatch it out from their hands.

Sport Styles Abilties:
) Soccer - Pass to Friendly
) Runner - Long Dash
) Golf - Lob Shot
) Hockey - Power Shot
) Football - Ground Pound
) Baseball - Place / Recall to Base

Random Planned Modes/Modifiers...:
) Hockey / Low friction
) Multiball
) Multiple Tiny Goals


..and that's the gist of what i've got going atm.

^ shoddy gif showing current Sport Style selection, dummy splash screen, and stadium. Probably will still have a menu-style screen for stadium and game options selection. Fans are now happily jump around when their team wins, while opposing and neutral fans can be persuaded to swap sides.



^ Picture of characters, as I forgot to put one here before.

Popping in to say that more local multiplayer games are always needed. Also love the stadium art.

Looks like it would be pretty quick to pick up (super important for local MP in my opinion) and possibly even pretty fun to spectate (also super important).

I can see this really working well with 4 players, with 2 I am concerned it might not be that interesting. You considering A.I. players to round it out?

AI would be fun.  Never done any AI tho so we'll seeeee.  Also should work with up to 8 players.  May already, but lack the controllers atm to check the thing.

> Level select / options
^ Players may join and leave on both the options and character select screen.
> ice/hockey option. Makes the player slide around in a fun way.  Ball rolls further.  Graphically just makes the ground snow colored atm.

Going to see if a goalie character feels good.  Goalie Ability: Hold button to lock your movement horizontally.

Added Tackling, so game is properly playable now.  (no more hiding in corners like a coward)  There's still a few weird collision things with the ball tho.  No transition yet.  Game will reset when one team gets 5 points.

Sunny ended up being Windy.  As a team gets closer to the winning goal, the winds go the other direction.

Download Playable Here.

Shoddy pause and win screens.
Rematching rerolls any "random" choices picked.
A few "Best Of" stats on win screen.
Also some reaaaaally temp sounds.

Anyone think I need a better name than SuperSportsBall?  I rather do, but nothing's springing to mind.
