History

This project first started by a pitch made by Alberto Giudice for a course in the MSc in Games at the IT University of Copenhagen, in 2019. The original idea was called "Volley Tank" and was meant to be a party game about playing volleyball with flying tanks. Since then, he and his team have put a lot of effort into prototyping different ideas and ended up with what today is Tank Ball. The core spirit of achieving a fun couch party game still remained in the final game, but everything else changed in order to make the game accessible and fun to anyone, from the casual players to the more seasoned ones. The game is at the moment in a beta version, a proper release will most likely come later in 2020 on Steam and other platforms.
