The charge is the score
White, cyan, gold: ×1, ×2, ×3. The screen shows you one thing — the colour of the ball — and every decision in a possession is a bet on it. Shoot now, or make one more pass?

×1 The game
Three against three, one ball, two targets on the walls. Every shot scores something. What matters is how much — and the ball is worth more the more of your team has touched it.
It starts white. One completed pass turns it cyan and doubles it. When all three of you have touched it, it burns gold and triples it. Hold it too long and it melts back down a step. That is the whole rule: the shot is only the end of an argument the passes started.
×2 The consequences
White, cyan, gold: ×1, ×2, ×3. The screen shows you one thing — the colour of the ball — and every decision in a possession is a bet on it. Shoot now, or make one more pass?
The targets are dartboards bolted to the end walls, and they move. The outer ring scores one, the bullseye three — times the charge. The ball bounces off the cage: bank shots count.
Now and then a patch of the arena lights up. Score from it, or bounce the ball off it, and the shot counts double. In the last two minutes everything doubles again: Overdrive.
×3 What is in the box
Thirty-six is a bullseye with a gold ball, from the gold zone, during Overdrive. And the zero is the point of the online mode: nobody touches their router. The studio's server introduces the players to each other, and when a network is too strict to let them talk directly, it relays the match itself.

Public games in a list sorted by real ping. Private games behind a six-letter code. An optional password. Quick play, if you just want to be on the pitch.
Empty seats are played by the AI, so one against one is still a full three-a-side match. Everything works with a gamepad.
