How it feels

It feels like a fast-paced, vertical team sport where you vault between floating platforms and use a gravity cannon to knock rivals off balance while scrambling for a goal.

What players say

Players agree the multiplayer is dead and there is no community to play with. Those who remember it describe a sci-fi handball game with double jumps and power-ups, comparing it to Unreal Tournament's Bombing Run. A few say it is fun with a group, but most say it is unplayable now.
