The 90s… Best remembered for the dawn of the internet civilization and MC Hammer’s trousers… But we at Valiant Interactive remember it differently. We recall a heyday of couch multi-player gaming where groups of like-minded individuals could gather around a heavily pixilated screen and scream at one another for almost no discernable reason.
We lived in a world where plumbers really saved princesses, hedgehogs broke the sound barrier on a daily basis and gaming with your friends was a chance for playful retribution for long-standing injustices – and pizza – in whatever order seemed convenient at the time.
Inspired by the legacy of games like Windjammers, Bomberman, Mariocart and many more, we have created Gyrodisc Super League – a lightning-fast futuristic sport that’s a blend of air hockey, tennis and volleyball. The rules are simple – Think Pong on Acid… Victory is seized by quick reactions and the sort of devious mind games that reveal the true nature of those people you used to call friends!

New courts and arena environments will be added throughout Early Access, allowing you to mix and match the visual and gameplay style of your matches.
