Daitomodachi, the 400K-subscriber 3D animator and YouTuber known for his anime and video game parodies, is proud to announce his first game: Ball Busters, developed under his newly founded indie game studio, Daitomodachi Labs.Ball Busters is a fast-paced 3D arena roguelike spectacle fighter about juggling balls—with style. Launch your ball at the start of each round and keep it airborne until you hit the round’s target count. The game blends the high-scoring build-crafting of an action roguelike with the flashy, over-the-top combo potential of a spectacle fighter, rewarding both mechanical skill and creative expression.Choose from six wildly distinct playable characters, ranging from a ruthless tycoon wielding a literal military-grade suitcase to a water goddess-turned-maid. Here are the three offically revealed characters thus far! Stack crazy upgrades and unleash powerful special moves to keep the ball airborne longer, rack up hits faster, or even control its movement to your will.But it won't be easy! Beyond hazardous stages that demand constant awareness, the game throws you into specialized challenge rounds where the ball busts your balls by gaining shields, firing projectiles, and activating unpredictable modifiers that will test your build (and your skills) to the limit.Ball Busters is currently in alpha, with a planned release window of mid-2026. Here's the reveal trailer!
