Side Out

Side Out is a last-side-standing arena game where you defend one edge of a polygon from an incoming ball. Letting the ball pass costs you a life, and you have two. When you are knocked out, you become a saboteur, placing obstacles that disrupt the remaining players.

An arena that shrinks

Each knockout removes a wall from the arena: it goes from eight sides to six, then four, until the last two players face each other with nowhere left to hide. At 75 seconds, a second ball joins the match; another appears every 34 seconds, up to six at once. Saboteurs can place bumpers, warps and spinners, and eliminated players keep taking part by changing sides.

Game modes

• CLASSIC: Eight players compete in one polygon to be the last side standing.
• ARENA: Up to twenty players compete around a ring of obstacles.
• PRIVATE ROOM: Play with exactly the people you choose by sharing a link.
• SOLO: Practice offline against bots.

Play across screens

Players on the Steam version share rooms with players on the web and on phones. You can invite others across these platforms to the same arena, round and clock.

Quick rounds

Bots instantly fill empty sides, so a round does not need a full room to start. If you join a match in progress, you take a bot's place. Rounds last a minute or two.
