The final episode is upon us and we’ve saved the best till last. Joel Goodwin of Electron Dance and I loved Witchball, ‘a post-reality racing game played by children in the year 2601’. Yeah. It’s very much doing its own thing which is exactly why it surprised us both so much.
Between this, Regular Human Basketball and last week’s Birdsketball, it’s been a great season for balls. You’ve not played anything like Witchball though. It’s bleak and brilliant, combining racing with split-screen volleyball, only, the split is the net. Seriously, just watch the video. The trailer is excellent too.
My thumbnail shock face though:

You guys make this game look a lot easier than I suspect it is. As the speed ramps up and the ball gets “pregnant with points” — a line I’m totally stealing — play becomes an incredible skills test. Plus the audio is so eerie and strange, it’s got to be off-putting to try and concentrate with that lovely (but creepy) soundtrack in the background. An amazing find!
I love Side by Side. This is the end of the season, but there will be more, right? I like to check in on Gregg and Joel, see how they’re doing.
Yes, I too loved the ‘pregnant with points’ line!
As always, we shall see on another season! We nearly didn’t do a season three and yet here we are concluding a fourth.
