Rotterdam based indie game studio, rooted in hiphop culture, brings you their pre-release event. Be the first one to play Gotchaball!
visitors are free to come and go throughout.
What is Gotchaball
Gotchaball is an "objective-based platformer" video game for 2-4 players, where players fight to capture zones. You battle for control of the ball to score points. Shake off your opponents, dodge, and juke them out to outsmart them and score points to win! Opponents will chase you down with items, doing everything they can to knock the ball loose! The game is easy to pick up, perfect for friends or family!
Event details
At the event, visitors can play the game for free and take part in on-the-spot mini tournaments for fun prizes! The game isn't out yet, so it'll be brand new for everyone! On top of that, the makers will share more about who they are as Rotterdammers and how hip-hop and street culture have influenced their creative process. The evening will wrap up with a beat battle, where local artists showcase their musical talent and compete to win a spot on the game's soundtrack!
The event is open, so visitors are free to come and go throughout.
