Batterneers

Batterneers is a multiplayer game for up to four players. You fight across different maps and game modes, using abilities, weapons and powerups. Multiplayer is online or over LAN; local multiplayer is not available.

Game modes

• Deathmatch: fight to be the last one standing with the highest score.
• Gem Chase: hold onto the gem for as long as possible while avoiding the other players.
• Treasure Hunt: collect the most treasure to win, while watching out for other players trying to sabotage you.

Weapons and powerups

Cannons require you to aim and calculate trajectories, and you can use powerups including tracking balls, boomerangs, summoning the kraken, sun beams and explosives. You can also pick up and throw bombs at pursuing enemies, though a stray cannonball can set them off. Powerups can make your ship a weapon too, with options such as spikes, ocean swirls and rapid reloading.
