That said, I’d also love a 2-player version in which each player controls… two players. If that makes sense. I think each “player” could be controlled by a single analog stick on the Dualshock.

It would be tougher, maybe, but I’d love to be able to use that awesome passing mechanic even if I could only find one other person to play with me.

Anyway… LOVE your idea in Hokra, which is to really simplify sport into it’s basic elements.

Wish you’d give some thought to an online mode, but I agree that local would be the most fun.

For some adults with silly busy lives, the idea of a 4-person game session just doesn’t sound realistic. Some of us gamers out here just don’t game with buddies anymore. It sounds like this game is going to be 4 player exclusive???

Maybe I misunderstood, but I would love to team up with the Wifey and find competition online. This just seems practical to me and could reach a much larger (adult) audience. I understand it’s just not that simple, but I wanted to throw it out there…

I kind of wish these games would just be sold separately for much cheaper. It’d make them better impulse buys and would take away from a lot of the “this looks fun for five minutes” criticisms.

Mind you, the thing I’m most concerned about is that it feels like Joust is the star of the show here but it requires people to spend a ton of money of a bunch of Move controllers that you’ll only ever use for Joust. If Sony really wanted to get behind this (and get a lot of extra Move controllers out there at the same time) they’d sell a bundle of maybe like 3 or 4 for really cheap.

I think those are the two big factors for why the Kickstarter hasn’t been as immediately successful as people might have imagined. I hope it goes well for you guys.
