Laser Lasso BALL

[b]Laser Lasso BALL[/b] is a fascinating fighting game with great graphics and fun gameplay for those who think they would like to play a more deadly version of volleyball. Check out this review and many others on Save or Quit: https://saveorquit.com/2017/11/17/review-laser-lasso-ball/ [h1]Short description[/h1] The basic objective of this game is to kick the ball away from you and kill your enemy before he manages to smash your head with a ball throw so fast it can break rocks. Basically. Although the game is initially fun, there aren't many things to discover once you figure out the basics. [h1]Main pros and cons[/h1] First of all, I would like to point out that this game definitely looks astonishing. The visuals remind me of Party Hard, mostly because of the contrast between the dark colors and the bright neon colors. The brightest part of the screen is obviously the ring in the middle. I'm also a big fan of the effects of the game on the crowd surrounding the two players. When either one of the players or the ball is thrown out of the ring, they hit the crowd with force and leave behind a whole bunch of bodies. The gameplay itself is quite entertaining. After I figured out the controls, I had a lot of fun playing. It takes a little while to understand the mechanics and to get used to spinning around the center all the time. You can either play against your friends locally or against the computer. The virtual opponent can be really really difficult to play against, I've only won a handful of matches against it. Although the game is really entertaining, I realized after playing for a while that there is a surprisingly small amount of content available for the player to discover. No matter how much you play, you won't get any new skins, new skills, new arenas, nothing. There is no storyline at all to make things more interesting. I really have mixed feelings about these because I never felt bored at all, but I always had a feeling that something was missing, that there should be at least [i]something[/i] to explore and unlock. The soundtrack is definitely amazing, it was written by a fella called SLOTHFELLA. The music is fast-paced electronic music with a hint of futuristic sounds. I'm a big fan of it as it really fits the gameplay and especially the graphics. It's a shame there isn't a soundtrack DLC available on Steam. Above, I talked a bit about how I needed some time to get used to the controls. At first, they are really counterintuitive, so I wish there was an option to switch the left and right key. The up and down arrows to move towards and away from the center are fine as they are quite obvious. I'm also quite surprised that this game lacks a proper options menu. Personally, I know that Alt+Enter switches between windowed and fullscreen mode, but not a lot of people know that. If you want to change the music volume, you first have to start a game and then use the pause menu to change the volume there (and that is a really important thing to do because the music is unusually loud in this game). Another challenge for the player is to find out how to enter the pause menu at all. When I tried to do that for the first time, I was really shocked when I discovered that the Escape key doesn't do a thing is this game. Who thought this would be a good idea? After pressing a bunch of keys and giving up, I pressed Alt+F4 to close the game. Then, I reopened it and checked out the tutorial to see how to do that. Apparently, it was the P key I needed to press. The problem with keybinds doesn't end there. The game makes absolutely no effort in explaining how to let a second player join the multiplayer game on the same keyboard. Me and my brother wanted to play on the same keyboard and we needed to press all of the most common keys to figure out which one lets the second player join. The last time we had to do that was when fifteen years ago when none of us spoke English and we couldn't understand what the instructions were saying. This time, there weren't any instructions at all. Apart from that, there isn't much to tell about this game. It does have achievements, which is nice. I wish there was an online multiplayer mode, it would've been really neat to play this with my online friends. [h1]Verdict[/h1] Although this game suffers from of a certain amount of bad design decisions (weird keybinds, no options menu, insufficient tutorial), I found the game really enjoyable. I had a lot of time playing the game once I figured out how to actually play properly. There is certainly a lack of additional content in terms of unlockable skins, maps, game modes and other things. I think that $4 is quite an appropriate price for a game like this and I wouldn't mind them bumping it up for an additional dollar if they fixed all the flaws of this game and maybe even added the online multiplayer mode.

This game is really unique, the premise is straight forward and simple but the gameplay has layers and layers of depth, there is a lot of creative techniques and strategies that can discover. I would say the only thing I would change is the ability to have the controls be up/downleft/right (instead of radial) for predictable control regardless of your position to the center. Great game. Totally worth the money!

Игра - арена. Очень сложно заинтересоваться данной игрой по визуальной составляющей, и очень много людей пройдет мимо, если не посоветуют друзья. Под простой пиксельной картинкой скрывается интересная механика взаимодействия игроков и море положительных эмоций. На данный момент игра в раннем доступе и игры с ботами нет, так же пока нет поддержки клавиатуры - только геймпад. Игра полностью играбельна и я лично багов не нашел, но может они и есть. Непросто понять механику игры, и интерфейс тоже совсем не прост, но по мере игры вкатываешься и понимаешь насколько это необычно и затягивающе. В игре нехватает какого либо опыта, уровней, возможно онлайн мультиплеера. Но то что уже есть достойно уважения.

This game is PURE SKILL.

Game is broken. Launches to black screen with sound but no visuals, and apparently no fix available. Would not recommend buying as seems to be random chance if it works for you or not. Dissapointed as looks like it could be a great game.

Laser Lasso Ball is a high paced game in which you play aginst either another play or an AI. The game sonsistes of running arround a circular arena in which you and another person are tethered to a post in which a ball of death tavels twards the player. The player must hit the ball back before they are hit, or you will die. Once you or your opponent runs out of lives, they will die. Great time passer!

规则挺独特的动作游戏 基本规则是双方各用一条绳子缠绕在中心上，一个光球在绳子上来回移动，通过准确的时机进行攻击。从而反弹小球，然后小球会反向移动到对方那里，对方再同样在对应时机攻击反弹 但游戏的乐趣在于，你可以根据当前距离圆心的位置产生一个在正前方一定角度的壁垒直接反弹小球 这个壁垒的范围随着你距离圆心的距离而增加，基本上当你离圆心很近时甚至这个壁垒会有180°左右的范围 但当你没有能使用壁垒反弹小球时（对方所处位置不在壁垒角度所包含的区域内，比如他站在你的旁边的时候），因为你离圆心的距离更近了从而你通过主动反击反弹球的时间也更少了 从此这个游戏的玩法就是双方彼此绕着圆心移动，不停将自己的正面朝着对方反弹来的路线上，并且跟着对方的移动节奏组织他躲到你壁垒无法反弹的区域中

A really great fun stylish game for two players! It plays the best with two xBox controllers!! First time I played it was with my friend at Portland Retro Gaming Expo back in 2015 and we were waiting for this release ever since. I can play this game with my buddys for hours. Highly recomend it!

Awesome Game! How about online multiplayer? This game could be the next big hype after Rocket League! Spread the laser! :)

Had a chance to play this game at EUCON in Eugene, Oregon. Was able to meet the creator and play with him! I got 3 keys for the price of 2! What an awesome guy. :) Great party game! Love the simplicity, fun to pick up and play. Excited for the future of this game. <3
