Hey everyone, I’m Tim, the creator of Z Ball at Zyntra. The idea started because I kept seeing videos of this unusual inclined-table ball sport online, usually under names like Star Cluster Ball, UNC Ball, 星罗球, Star Ball or YoTyan/Yotyan Ball depending on where you find it. Every time I watched it I kept thinking, “Why isn’t there a proper mobile game for this?” So eventually I decided to build one. Z Ball became a much bigger project than I originally expected. I wanted the shots to actually feel skill-based, so aim, power, bank shots and positioning matter. From there we added online 1v1, friend challenges, A.I. opponents, Z Tour, Trick Shots, rankings, cosmetics and more. One of the biggest things for me was keeping it fair. There is no pay-to-win advantage. If somebody beats you, it should be because they played the shot better. I’m building this as a small indie project from South Africa, and Z Ball is still very early in its life. We have only recently started getting real players into the game, so feedback at this stage genuinely matters a lot. If you try it, I’d especially like to hear what you think about the shooting controls, scoring, difficulty and online 1v1. And if you enjoy it, bring a friend and challenge them. That is really where I think Z Ball becomes the most fun. Thanks for checking it out.
