Took a long time
I would try it a few times a month and be terrible. But Im starting to come around and my faith feels pretty rewarded. I still dont have a great feel for the smash but can get some. And I found a trick serve that makes easy level almost trivial. But thats alright--get off of easy ... So all in all it seems like it does have good playability. But takes patience. Oh and the graphics are a bit 90s era crude. But the play and movement is pretty sophisticated. Hardly like a one man creation.
Update: I like it more and more and would call it a favorite now. To get a smash you really have to read and react early. You must start your smash when the incoming shot is still on the rise. And be in position. It was tough, but now Im hitting several in a row. Also impressive is the variety of shots coming from the same button dep on position and timing. All in all, really impressive, awesome game. Too bad low raters didnt keep working on it.
