Gameplay
There can be up to three team members that include two strikers and one grounder. The goal of the game is to hit the moving target in the middle, and the ball cannot be held for more than two seconds. The game moves fast, and it is a more modern version of the game Pong.[3]

gollark: I'm using Nim quite extensively now, which is nice apart from some weird quirks.
gollark: I just remain slightly dissatisfied with all programming languages in existence, it's great.
gollark: The entire language is stacks of accursed mold, apart from some recent nice things like destructuring.
gollark: I mostly use JS because I can quickly write slightly horrible code in it, and browsers.
