A fun mix of Paper Mario, Pokemon, and, well, dodgeball! It doesn't do anything revolutionary but it's a great indie game that I would love to see get a sequel

Rating 8/10
Pro:
1. Achievements are very do-able
2. Very Diverse cast of characters
3. Visually/Designs are very nice
4. Getting it on summer sale $10 is very worth it.
5. Fun battle system
6. Mix of Paper Mario & Poke'mon vibe.
Con:
1. Can get a bit repetitive later on
2. Consumable (heals & revives) are practically useless. You get a healing station in the school and one in the forest.
3. Not too much of a challenge (Might be good depending on you)
Overall it's a very neat game with cute dialogues. But the biggest con is the combat system does get a bit stale after more than half way through the game or if they made it harder I probably enjoy it more. Still recommend it!

I finished this game today. it's a short but fun and satisfying game. The combat system is interesting, based entirely on throwing balls at the enemy and dodging throw balls, with all sorts of weird special moves, balls that act strangely etc. While levelling helps, you do ultimately need to learn the system. The premise is that EVERYTHING is dodgeball, it is very tongue in cheek and parodies sports anime a lot. Would recommend.

It has the aesthetics and writing of a typical Saturday morning cartoon. Dodgeball Academia follows a generally lighthearted story of a world taking a sport way too seriously, with its players having superpowers and scientists researching new ways to have fun with it.
As an RPG, its story is short but flavourful, full of vibrant characters and cheesy jokes. The actual dodgeball combat is satisfying when you smash your opponents and frustrating when you get stunlocked. The battles tend to mix it up across the adventure, ensuring it doesn't get too monotonous. Sadly there's not much to do when you reach the end.
As a dodgeball game, it feels a little lackluster: The playable roster is disappointingly small (especially when compared to what's encounterable in the story) and the lack of AI in your partners is a letdown. While I can see why it was done like that, I would've loved to see the sheer chaos of two full teams going full gangbusters on each other.
All in all it's more interested in being a charming rpg focused around dodgeball instead of a fleshed out dodgeball game that happens to have a story, if that makes sense.

This is just missing an endless mode or a way to enjoy the game by yourself once the singleplayer game is done. As well as some form of character creation. If they added one/both of those. I'd still be playing this game.
Nothing scratches a sports sim enthusiasts itch other than certain kinds of games. This was one of them. Unfortunately, after the single-player and secret content, there's just nothing more.
It is indeed a humble game. 10/10 would recommend.

I had a lot of fun with this game. Easy to understand controls, a nice variety of characters to collect and play as, and a fun story. I only wish the game was longer and the online was active. The game is on sale now for $10.00 which a great price to buy it. I do feel buying while on sale is worth so definitely wait to buy then.
Story: Amusing enough 6.5/10

Online: DEAD 0/10

Overall: Definitely but on sale 7/10
