Pool but Not as you Know it – Three Ways we Brought our Vision for Mutiplayer Pool to Life

You’re looking at this and thinking, just another pool game, right? Think again, Pool Blitz is so much more (well, for one thing, it’s free to play). On one hand, we have traditional 8 ball and 9 ball pool on the other we have No-Wait Blitz mode, Power-ups, pocket blockers, Steel balls, themed weekly tournaments, eight-player online quickfire tournaments, and, it’s pretty on the eye, too!
Pool Blitz comes from a small, family run, Indie developer based in Manchester, UK (and by family run, I really do mean it; mum, dad, daughter and husband, and honestly, the rest of team are like family too), but at the heart of what we do, is pool and snooker, our physics engine has been honed for over 15 years to bring to you the best pool games in the world. So, here’s some of the things we did to provide you with something you can keep coming back to pick up and play:
Regularly Updated Content
We love pool and want you to love it too, we wanted to create a pool game that was constantly updated with fun new content. We have themed 8 Ball and Blitz Tournaments every week, where you can compete in a group of up to 100 players to win huge prizes, and bragging rights! Monthly themed seasons with daily and weekly challenges to help you speed though your free Pool Pass and collect awesome themed goodies.
Play with Friends or Practice Your Shots Solo
One cool social addition was the QuickFire Tournaments, you can compete against up to 8 friends, and don’t worry if you get kicked out because you can spectate matches right up to the final. Fancy something a little more relaxed, play 1v1 matches with friends and keep track of your winning stats.
And if you’re feeling the need to slow it right down head to practice, set the balls up in any way you want and just knock them around solo, budding trickshot artist – here is your canvas!
Traditional Pool with a Zaney Twist – We’ve got Both
Ever played pool and just wanted to skip the other player’s shot, we got you! Blitz mode is a non-turnbased pool game for those who just want to shoot pool and have some fast paced fun. The aim is clear – to clear the table first, but watch out for those pesky power balls.
As we said, we love pool and so traditional 8 ball and 9 ball pool and a good solid physics engine are at the heart of everything we do, so if that’s what you’re looking for, we have got it in spades.
Well thats it, Pool Blitz in a nutshell, we’ve been hard at work on the game for over two years and so we’re so excited to finally bring it to Xbox on October 11th, 2023.
