About the Game

Rotate through ridiculous game-modes with your friends!

What would happen if we could throw entire stacks of people around? Ridiculous sports are what would happen. In Grab n' Throw, take on the role of an athlete with Totally Natural upper body strength and play the full-contact games of the near-future against human and AI players.

  • Fluid movement - Jump from teammate to teammate, grab, throw, all in first-person.

  • Bulk Interactivity - Interact with the environment. If it exists, you can probably do something with it. Everything in videogames should be interactive!

  • Variety - Rotate through a bunch of fun gamemodes with your friends.

  • Sustainable multiplayer - Buying a primarily-multiplayer indie game is a risk. What if there aren't any players? Grab n' Throw is designed with this in mind!

  • Utility and GOAP AI - Play against cunning, responsive AI that makes choices based on the state of the game and the expected value of each action, then dynamically plans how to achieve them!

  • Hole in One - Throw force is cranked up massively! Fly through the air, kilometres at a time, and try to land in a golf hole that moves further and further away. Make your way across a 256 km^2 map, bounce off randomly placed surfaces, and score extra points for holes-in-one and making the longest throw!

  • Bombarda - Dodgeball crossed with soccer, except instead of balls you throw stacks of your own team-mates, and every goal tilts the whole field against you! Take the offensive and try to win on goals, or hang back and smash into the other team to beat them with outs!

  • Volley Bash - Throw your team-mates across the net to score goals by slamming into the ground!

  • Lawyer Launch - Run through a high-rise office building and hurl more lawyers out of windows than your opponents!

  • Soul Save - Rescue the souls of damned in this high-stakes game for eternal salvation!
