I loved slime volleyball (and all the offshoots, like slime water polo, tennis, etc) back in the day!
This version is more cutesy but definitely captures the magic of those original games.
The originals were all java applets. I have the class files for them and always wanted to get around to finding a JS emulator so that I could host them on my personal site again. If anyone has some recommendations please comment!
Since they explicitly don't support mobile devices, it would be good if the website included at least a brief recording showing what the gameplay is like.
This is really great. I love the amount of interaction you can have once you realize you can jump over to the other side, and stand on your opponent's head, etc.
I also really like the beginning: the bouncing ball that continues to bounce as you slowly work out that space is jump and WASD are movement.
Wowww this is amazing. I've made a few remakes of slime basketball and am planning to do another one, especially with AI coding now being a thing. This is really nice, well done!
This is great! Especially that you can jump over the net.
A long time ago, I made a clone of the same game for the Ti83+ :)

This is the most amount of fun with the fewest amount of game mechanics I've had since Tetris.

Slime Cricket, as someone who lives in the US and knows nothing about it, was very amusing.
Canadian here, so I'm in the same boat.
I think the original authors were a bunch of Uni students from New Zealand so that might explain cricket.

Love the game, love the music. I'm getting unreasonably angry at my computer competitor. Well done.

Cute. Being able to walk into your opponent's side makes this a lot more interesting that my memory of Slime Volleyball.
The AI also has some funny emergent behavior that demands that you go over there to knock the ball out of its control.
Since it has a dedicated site and a Discord, I assume there are plans to implement PvP multiplayer.

Great job! Does anyone know which one was first: Slime Volleyball or Blobby Volley? I fondly remember playing Blobby Volley at school
Very nice! The original can be played on https://oneslime.net/
Are you the developer? If so, have you thought about incorporating mobile controls?
It was a game changer once I realized you could over the net. Super fun game!
Wow, unexpectedly fun!
And thanks for supporting Firefox!
So much fun! Great work.
