I found it to be on par with games like gang beasts and stick fight: the game, but it might not hold up as well with your group as it has a less broad audience.

Started playing dodgeball. Ended up fighting hippies, a whale, the devil, and my best friend. Didn't know dodgeball could cause this much emotional damage - or this much joy. A short and sweet experience for solo or group play sessions. Plenty of enjoyment and manageable achievements.

Why can't we play with 6 local players on PC? Right now it only lets you play with 4 real players plus 2 AI bots, but the Switch version already supports 6-player local multiplayer. There's no reason PC shouldn't have the same feature. Please add a proper 6-player local mode - it would make this game absolutely amazing! PC 版ではローカル 6 人プレイができないのに、4 人プレイヤー+2 人の CPU 対戦は可能なのはなぜですか? Switch 版ではローカル 6 人プレイに対応しているのに、PC...
