Coming to PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, PlayStation 4 and Google Stadia on January 20th, Windjammers 2 promises long, spirited Frisbee-throwing sessions. In this second episode, an “online” mode is present, which is the subject of this homemade gameplay.
The gameplay level of Windjammers 2 hasn’t changed, and that’s a good thing: like its older brother, this second installment places two players on a sort of tennis court, rendered in 2D. The goal ? Throw the frisbee into the opponent’s cages. More or fewer points are scored depending on the goal scored, and the first player to fifteen points wins the set, with even-set matches winning. It’s the French studio Dotemu that is behind this second opus, which almost literally takes the lines of code of the arcade game released in 1994. Despite this, the French team adds many shots (muffled, countering or even jumping) to widen the field of possibilities and make the matches even crazier.
In this four-minute homemade gameplay, the editors tried the “Online” mode to determine the in-game latency. No problem at this level, even if it was more our opponents who made life difficult for us : He took the French character, new champion of the squad, whose sweeping throws and great are very painful. On our side the British Miller for his balance between speed and strength. France-England, who will win?
Windjammers 2 is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and Google Stadia. It is also available in Xbox Game Pass.
