Latest Steam announcements

  • Ballsy! World Cup 2020 v1.5 update - PS4 controller fix - 13 January 2023

    By compiling with the latest Unity version, a controller issue was fixed. I also made a little gameplay change: if you accelerate from walk to sprint speed, it would only do so in the direction you were currently moving in. This was a deliberate gameplay choice to force players to have the player change direction first, before they fully accelerated. However, I have changed my mind since, as I feel the downside weighs too heavily: it doesn't feel very intuitive. If you preferred the old way a lot more, let me know, I'll put the previous build in a separate branch as an option! If you notice any regressions with this build, let me know! Full changelog v1.5: - compiled with new unity to fix PS4/DS4Win controller issues - can now accelerate to sprint into any direction, rather than only near the current walk direction - team 1 (player team) now selected by default on world cup matches, to…

  • Nighttime match performance patch 1.4b - 17 February 2021

    1.4b should fix some graphical performance issues with nighttime matches. Cheers!

  • Ballsy! World Cup 2020 is a wonderful throwback to Sensible Soccer - 22 January 2021

    Remember the classic Sensible World of Soccer or the original Sensible Soccer? Classics from the 90s and Ballsy! World Cup 2020 is a wonderful take on it. Read the full article here: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2021/01/ballsy-world-cup-2020-is-a-wonderful-throwback-to-sensible-soccer

  • Ballsy! v1.4 with easier gamepad setup - 21 December 2020

    Many players were rightfully complaining that the controller setup screen was vague at best. This was hard to fix without migrating to Unity's new Input System, which meant a complete overhaul of my input code. This should result in better input configuration, but unfortunately also means that any custom button setup had to be reset, so if you aren't using the default settings, you will have to reconfigure your button settings. I'm sorry about that! This is quite a big update from a technical perspective, so if you have any issues, make sure to share them on the discussion board, or as a reply to this message! Furthermore, I've separated the pass and shoot button, by popular request. The default settings have them separated now, but if you prefer the old single-button pass/shot, you can still set it up that way. Player switching is now configurable, so you can have the player closest to…

  • Ballsy! now available on Linux! - 12 December 2020

    Linux gamers don't have to wait any longer to get their fix of fluent passing play! Let me know in the replies or on the discussion boards if you're having any issues - hopefully none! Other updates for this version include a refurbished team select/setup screen, which should fix some issues for people playing as player 2, and some more small bugfixes. Gameplay has not been altered. Merry Xpass!

  • Ballsy! update adds nighttime matches - 13 November 2020

    Though the release of Ballsy! World Cup 2020 was successful, many players reported playing in the daytime gave them a bad case of sunburn. And so, management decided to add random nighttime fixtures to the schedule. Teams can also specifically request to play in the day or night at all times, by setting the relevant 'match time' slider in the match options menu. The rendering pipeline has been restructured to support for this lighting update; if you bump into graphical issues, please let me know on the discussion boards!

  • Ballsy! update adds momentum slider - 1 November 2020

    I've added a momentum slider to the match settings menu. Lower settings will make the players feel heavier, making for a more tactical game. Higher settings will be preferable if you like the game to test your reflexes. This update also includes some minor gameplay fixes, the most noticeable being that players will now do their best to not collide with their teammate on the ball, which was quite an annoying issue! Those amateurs! Enjoy! Bastiaan

  • Ballsy! World Cup 2020 is here! - 28 October 2020

    Do you like balls? Do you like feet? Shoes, maybe, even? How about combining your favorite passions, and have the shoe kick the ball in a direction of your choosing? Wait no longer! For here is Ballsy! World Cup 2020, the fluent retro ballgame experience you didn't know you were yearning for! It features balls, players, a pitch, yes, even goals! BUT WAIT, there's more! Well, actually, not much more, really, that's pretty much it. Yes, it's a simple, small ballgame. Do you have a problem with that? Why are you looking at me like that? Have you never met an honest salesman yet? Well, this didn't quite go the way I planned. You know what, just play the game and let the gameplay sell itself! :D With love, Bastiaan, your favorite retro ballgames programmer at Properly Decent!

Short description

The fluent retro ballgame experience you didn't even know you were yearning for

About this game

Tired of these sluggish, scripted modern football games? Still like some physics momentum in your retro footy game? Search no longer! Ballsy! offers that fluent feel for flowing football fans. The European football, that is, so, not handegg. Though truth be told, the term 'soccer' was actually invented by the English, so it doesn't deserve all the hate it gets. It doesn't matter. Ballsy! isn't even a soccer game, since there's no referee, no sidelines, no offsides.. this sports is called Ballsy! I totally didn't come up with that to evade legal problems with some association football organization at all, of course. Play a single game against the CPU, go for the World Cup, or take on your friends with the local multiplayer options: up to 4 player VS and COOP play! FAQ: Q: Do I need a gamepad to play? A: No, but it is recommended, just feels better! Q: Will there be a console version? A: Probably not, unless the game is really really successful, and probably not even then. Q: Will there by online multiplayer? A: No. Q: Will there be more Ballsy! games? A: Probably yes!

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Oct 4, 2026 to Oct 4, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $2.99
  • Highest observed: $2.99

Ballsy! World Cup 2020's USD price history spans from Oct 4, 2026 to Oct 4, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $2.99, the highest is $2.99, and the first visible tracked price is $2.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Ballsy! World Cup 2020's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $2.99, from Oct 4, 2026 through Oct 4, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $2.99. The latest run records $2.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $2.99
  • Current list price: $2.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Ballsy! World Cup 2020 at $2.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
