I have had a few games and it's definitely mixing it up.
One was moon gravity with beach-ball which was super heavy and fast boost recharge and that took ages for someone to score. Another was tiny ball with slow recharge and time warp and that was slightly frustrating, it slows down every few seconds intermittently and I see why it might be fun but I didn't find it fun. Overall I'm glad for the inclusion, although not played enough to unlock Abe and Vault Boy antennas yet.

Hey remember cross platform parties that was a cool thing to stop working on.
Love the game don't get me wrong but did they drop that idea?

Sweet! Can't wait to try it out later today!
I believe they did.
They said it's hell on earth to do -- but it is doable iirc?
So they put their resources to keeping the game fresh. And at this point in the games life, actual content to keep the game alive is much more welcome than cross platform parties.
dave is ok
aztek is ok
You can do cross platform custom games, but they aren't making it so you can form parties across platforms. Apparently it would be a nightmare to maintain.

It's not gonna happen. They would need to create their own backend to replace PSN and Steam and have someone supervising it 24/7 in case it goes down. They said as a small developer it's very hard to do. Realistically the commitment probably outweighs the payoffs for them.

This is incredible. I take it you can do all these mutators with bots?

Looking at some gameplay on Twitch, this looks insane in the best possible way, cant wait to try it.

Yes. Bigtime.

No. Apparently they screwed up UI scaling past 1080p.
Played three matches with the mutators.
You guessed it : it's insane.
The game was already fun, it has gone beyond fun. It's madness now. You never know how it will play.
First match was a mix of small and fast ball, plus high and fast rebound. Cars were litterally chasing the ball, which flew from side to side like in a tennis match. Amazing match.
Second match was slow turbo refilling, and cube ball. With a ball like that you basically have to hit hard or try to push it directly.
My last match was just with the Time Warp mutator, which is basically a random use of slomo throughout the entire game, which led to fun situations.
Definitive GOTY, I'm gonna gift a friend who wait for the linux version.

Crazy this game went from me stumbling into a gaf thread to probably my most played game of the year.
