If you have a flair for the exciting, this game is definitely your type! Every 10 seconds, something exciting happens to change up this simple slime-volleyball-esque soccer game.

NOTE: If you are running the mac version, make sure that you right click Kickbox.app -> Get Info and check to make sure that "Open in 32 bit mode" is CHECKED.

It's hard to judge a game like this without someone to play against nearby, but the quirky engine makes for some good fun.

This was real cool. Same as TehLulzinator, It's kind of hard to play on your own. The 10 second switchup was a ton of fun though! Great job!

PS: Go Mustangs!

Amazing job, great game. I LOVE games that let me flip anything. Playing as a rect and doing ninja back flips is the great in the game. XD Nice job. KEEP. IT. UP. Glad that you added sound. The installer was a bit annoying, but it was worth it. Hope to see you making games in LDs to come!

So funny! Great job!
It's a football game but I find the way you did it is really innovative! Sadly I played alone so I couldn't use this game at its full potential.
ps: Slow motion rocks

I brought this to work today to play it with a coworker. It is, indeed, pretty awesome with 2 players. The characters offer a surprising amount of variation. I played the ghost guy and my coworker played the twins; at one point (when Giant Mode was on) my player got sandwiched in between them and they dragged me around for a while. Was hilarious.

Very fun game, especially against a human opponent. Slow motion was my favorite effect.

The game crashed on our third game though, we were using the two characters on the bottom right, maybe that helps you locate the problem.

That's a nice game, I like the ball changing physics. Nice one. :)

@MunkeeBacon and anyone else who can't get it running on a Mac, try right clicking the application -> Get Info. Make sure that your Mac opens it in 32 bit mode only :)

Amazing game! More fun while playing with another player.

A fun and pretty silly game. I like how all of the characters actually had slightly different properties... and pulling off kickflips to send the ball flying was cool. Changing the game effects every 10 seconds was a pretty neat touch! Thanks for putting this together!

This was really fun and creative! I think it's better than Slime Volleyball. :D

Cool concept for a multiplayer game. Plays nicely with the theme. For some reason, I think your block crowds are awesome. Good job!

fun game i kept losing though.

Good use of the theme 10 seconds. As a suggestion, I think you must implement an IA for singleplayer :D

Fun gameplay and player choices. It's kind of funny to play against yourself. The crowd was a nice touch.

I can't say much considering I played it by myself. I can definitely see it being fun with another player. All I can really say is that it would be nice to have a method of controlling your spin. Maybe a kick button which spins your player rapidly.

It has been more than a week since I rated this game, it has held the test of time! I play it every other day and I have gotten pretty good at landing flips. This is still not boring! You are in my top three for sure! (Unless I find a new favorite in the next 80 hours, this will mostly like me crowned THE BEST GAME OF LD.) Very nice work!

This is crowned the best game of this LD in my opinion. Good job!

I can see this game goes wild :)
Anyway, I can't fully experience the game though as I don't have someone nearby to play with. But I really sense the good fun as I tried to play it alone as well.
