The aim of the game is to eliminate the other players. You damage other players by slamming into them as hard as you can while in ‘ball mode’. You also take less damage and bounce while in ball mode.

Many thanks to Sean Cannock for supplying the music and most of the sound effects.

There seems to be a small bug in the web player that causes the health bars to flicker sometimes. I’ll see what I can do to fix it.
