Huge potential. Please add a chat feature! Needs some UI and graphics improvements. All the bones are there.

The graphics in 3rd person are trash, and maybe thats just my PC, but I'm mind blown at how bad. Glad its free!

Protoball, Oh boy where do I begin here, I've been in the arena since the early days of development so I've gotta admit I'm a bit biased towards the concept of the game. Given that, it has a high replay-ability and it keeps me coming back to be the best player I can be in the earliest stages of what I see to be a great future competitive eSport. As a person who frequents FPS games like Valorant, CS:GO, Apex and...

Actually a fun game if you take an hour or two to learn the basics. Existing playerbase/devs are very good, but helpful. Has a high skill floor, but an even higher skill ceiling.

most unpolished game anyone has ever made pretty much all the positive reviewers have only 1 review and they don't even mention the name of the game half the time. don't waste your time and especially don't throw your money at ♥♥♥♥♥♥ people who get fake reviews

Me and my friends played the ♥♥♥♥ out of the OG Protoball. The fact that the devs have remade it, is seriously dope after all these years. Good for y'all, love the new graphics and engine.

Unbelievably high mechanical ceiling, creative tech, and an amazing community. I would recommend for all new players to join the discord. There are many helpful players there who help you learn the game and organize matches. Overall 10/10.

The game was basically not fun at all and felt extremely weird to play, friends menu wasn't working and the arrow that indicates where the ball is doesn't work at all. 90% of the positive reviews look blatantly fake.

This game is very rewarding when you get good at the mechanics even as a new player its loads of fun. The Devs are very interactive and will answer any questions you have in discord. If you like technical high level game play and a competitive scene this game is for you

This game is one of the most incredible projects i have ever played. The mechanics, the skill curve, the community, every aspect of this game has brought me so much joy. Every part of this game has been enjoyable, challenging, and extremely rewarding to learn and master. It truly is my favorite game of all time. I hope to continue playing for years to come and even longer. There has been ups and downs, but there are...
