BALL SMASHERS is love-letter arcade tennis in the spirit of the N64 classics — easy to pick up, sneaky-deep, and dressed to the nines.

10 playable fighters, each with their own build, stats, themed aura, and signature STAR SHOT — from Larry's grove magic to Nova's Starfall Smash. Charge shots, paint the lines with topspin and slice, burst across the court with trick lunges, bend time with Zone Speed, and unleash Zone Shots when the meter's hot.

TOUR MODE: run a 10-match gauntlet through the entire roster on 7 courts — grass, clay, hard, neon night, beach, a retro arcade hall, and the mossy Grove — through rain, wind, and snow. Survive Nova… and meet what's waiting behind her. 👁

VS MODE: 2-player local versus on one keyboard or two gamepads.

A living stadium: courtside crowds that track the ball, card-stunt sections, streamers, a live jumbotron — and one secret ending for players who bring the right hero all the way home. 🌱

Full gamepad support (Xbox/PS layouts) + keyboard. Best played fullscreen with sound ON.

Meant to be used with a gamepad, since the buttons control the type of shot. Mobile game may be in the works. This started as me wanting to have a fun, arcade style tennis game without crazy long matches and have some added unusual play dynamics like weather and court variables.
