Ballblazer — About this game
"Ball Blazer" is a one-on-one futuristic sports game set in an interstellar competition in the year 3097. The player moves the high-speed boat Rotofoil back and forth, left and right, approaches the Plasmove floating in the stadium, automatically captures it, and shoots into the opponent's goal beam. It features a ``Roto Snap'' feature in which the aircraft automatically turns to the ball when it is not in hand, and towards the goal after holding it, so it is important to read each other's paths and judge the range. The score changes depending on the distance of the shot, and if the score is tied at the end of the time limit, the match continues until the next score is scored. You can choose not only to play against humans, but also to play against computers with a set level, or to watch games between computers.
