A 1v1 side-view soccer brawl with big-headed stars. Jump, head and swing your foot to blast a bouncy, spinning ball past your rival under the crossbar. Touch the ball to charge a super power — fire shot, deep freeze, big head, banana curve and more. Win a world-cup-style tournament of fictional teams (3 group matches, semi-final and final, 60-second games with golden goal) against a CPU that gets tougher every round, unlock all 8 characters, or challenge a friend on one keyboard.

How to play

Move, jump and kick to put the ball into your rival's goal under the crossbar. Every touch fills your power meter; when it is full, fire your character's super power. Most goals after 60 seconds wins; a tie goes to golden goal. Win the group-and-knockout cup to unlock a new character.

Controls

1 player: Arrow keys or A/D to move, Up or W to jump, Space to kick, Down or S to use your super power, Esc to pause. 2 players: P1 A/D move, W jump, Space kick, S power; P2 Left/Right move, Up jump, Enter kick, Down power. Touch: on-screen move, jump, kick and power buttons.

Tips and strategy

  • Stay near the ball: every touch adds 20% to your power meter, and the meter also creeps up on its own and carries over after goals.
  • Fire Shot and Banana Curve charge your next kick, so trigger them first and then line up the shot, while powers like Deep Freeze act at once.
  • Only the top two teams of your four-team group reach the semi-finals, so goal difference matters when points are tied.
  • The CPU gets tougher with each match in a cup and with every cup you have already won, so expect the final to be the hardest game.
