Bedlamball

Bedlamball is a competitive game inspired by Calvinball from Bill Watterson’s comic Calvin and Hobbes. It plays a bit like air hockey: each player tries to knock the ball into the other player’s goal, while both sides can change the rules and mechanics during a match. You might shrink the goal to stop an opponent from scoring or change how points are awarded when you fall behind; each change affects both sides. Matches can be chaotic and strategic, and the rules mean you do not have to play the same way twice.

Characters and modes

Bedlamball has eight characters, each with a unique specialty. You can play local versus matches, team matches with two players on each side, or online through Steam Remote Play Together. Solo options include a regular match against the AI and Score Attack, where you aim to score the most goals. You can also watch the AI play against itself.

Crowd Control

When streaming, your audience can change the rules through Crowd Control. This feature is currently available only on Windows. The game also has a secret unlockable mode.
