Pig Eat Ball

Pig Eat Ball is an arcade adventure about Princess Bow, who disguises herself to enter the Royal Games after her father, King Cake, decides the winner will marry her. As she competes, Bow uncovers a plot that threatens all life aboard the Space Station Kingdom.

Eat, grow and explore

Eating makes Bow bigger, while barfing lets her shrink and can affect anything that moves. You travel through large, interconnected overworlds filled with strange life and secret rewards, across five distinct areas, including Sushi Gardens, Kitchen Chaos and Astro Farm.

Each handcrafted, non-procedural level has its own challenge or puzzle. These include dodging alien bulls, spitting bombs, eating flying pies and bowling on conveyor belts. Nearly a dozen bosses include the Accordion Centipede and a living pile of nachos.

Disguises and encounters

Dozens of special Disguises are scattered throughout the Space Station Kingdom. Each gives Bow a special ability as well as a Pro and a Con, so you can switch disguises to suit different situations.

Pillbugs roam the space stations. Some may play tennis with you, while others steal your balls; they can also use lawn darts, bombs, flying pies and tractors. You can barf on them, bump them, torch them or knock them into open space. They can hold their breath for a long time.

You can talk to dozens of aliens, including Cupcake people, Scrounger Goblins, sentient shrimp and King Cake. The game also features a soundtrack described as three parts funky and one part bizarre.

Story and challenges

The main story takes 8–12 hours on a first playthrough. Earning a Gold Medal for completing each level quickly unlocks a special Challenge Section in each world.

Multiplayer and custom levels

The offline couch competitive mode supports four players. It offers dozens of custom levels with different goals, as players compete by bumping, barfing and belching.

Action levels also have online leaderboards for competing over the fastest times. The level editor lets you create and test levels, then share them with friends or other players through Steam Workshop.
