About the Game

A MINIMALIST, CLASSIC-STYLE GAME

Just Catch Fireballs may be the simplest, most stripped-down and immediately accessible game you'll encounter today. Enjoy pick-up-and-play challenging gameplay that is different every time you play. Ideal for short breaks and times when you just need a quick game of something that requires very little commitment.

CATCH FIREBALLS

Just Catch Fireballs is a fireball-catching game in which you control a fireball catcher to catch fireballs. If you're the kind of person who enjoys catching fireballs, this may be the game for you. Avoid not catching fireballs when playing Just Catch Fireballs; bad things will happen.

DIFFERENT EVERY TIME

Your fireball catcher will be upgraded randomly after each wave of fireballs, so every play session is unique. You'll need both luck and skill to get a high score.

ALL ORIGINAL ASSETS

The 3D models, pixel art assets, VFX, and soundtrack in Just Catch Fireballs are all original creations of the developer.

LOOKING FOR A CHALLENGE?

Not everyone has what it takes to catch fireballs. Do you? Try catching seven hundred and seventy-seven fireballs in a single game, and earn the mark of a true fireball catcher -- the Second Bird.
