After numerous delay, I'm proud to announce Ball Busters Open Playtest is now Live!

Press Release
In Ball Busters, pick from six wildly unhinged characters, each with their own abilities, stats, and playstyles. Each character brings unique mechanics that radically change how you juggle, move, and build combos.
Throughout each run, players unlock upgrades, power-ups, and new special moves to create ridiculous builds. However, players only have a limited number of tries. Drop the ball too many times, and the run is busted.
The open playtest gives players an early look at the game’s core combat, early playable characters and balls, upgrades, and challenging boss rounds. Player feedback will be used to improve the game ahead of its Steam Next Fest Demo and full release.
I also launched a Discord Server for the game and Labs projects! Join here!
Hope you enjoy busting some balls!
