Paper Volleyball

Physics-based stick-figure volleyball simulator with roguelite progression. Master positioning, timing, and precise control over every hit. Recruit powerful players, build your dream team, coordinate plays, and see how far you can go before getting eliminated.

Paper Volleyball is an indie stick-figure volleyball simulator with roguelite progression. You win through precision, positioning, and split-second decisions. Influence powerful players to join your team, strengthen your squad, coordinate plays, and see how far you can go before getting eliminated.

Just like in real volleyball, be ready and in-position for every serve, set, spike, block, and save. The game won't automatically put you in the right position or correct your hits. You control your movement, timing, hitting strength, and angle—and physics takes care of the rest. Reading the play and adapting your strategy is what separates champions from everyone else.

Build Your Dream Team

Level up your teammates, improve their abilities, unlock powerful team-wide skills, and assemble a roster that fits your strategy. Will you build a towering blocking squad, a lightning-fast quick-attack lineup, or a balanced team that can handle anything?

Every Run Is Different

Battle through increasingly difficult opponents, earn rewards and unlock upgrades from every match, and discover new team skills. Experiment with different lineups, player positions, and strategies as you fight to become the ultimate volleyball champions.

Smart, Dynamic AI

Your teammates aren't just along for the ride—they move into position, chase down loose balls, cover the court, and make plays alongside you. Meanwhile, opposing teams react to every rally, creating matches where no two points unfold exactly the same way.

Simple Controls, Deep Gameplay

Start with a simple control scheme, then graduate to advanced controls that give you greater freedom and precision. Learning the buttons is easy. Learning to consistently make great plays takes practice. Every successful spike, block, and save is something you've earned.

⚠️ WARNING: HARD GAME IS HARD

Learning to spike a volleyball takes practice in real life. The same goes here. Positioning, timing, strength, and angle all matter. The game won't magically make the perfect play for you. That's up to you.

Don't let the stick figures fool you!
