Steam App ID: 976630

Hatchball is more than just a digital pinball game, taking place in a wild forest filled with life and magical energy\. Instead of playing with regular silver balls, this game is played with eggs\! The goal of the game is to guide these eggs to your Hatchery, where they will be able to hatch into adorable creatures\. Given love and care they will become powerful allies… and your best friends\! Have you already come up with a name for your first Hatchling?   The game begins with an egg being launched into the pinball forest\. Your goal is to play this magical game to the best of your powers, and deliver the egg to your Hatchery\. Don't forget to collect a ton of points along the way, to help nurture your creatures\! Adorable Hatchlings\!      Once they're born, your new Hatchling friends will help you however they can, whether through magical power or practical prowess\. Choose which ones you want to take with you for each new shot at a table, and use their abilities to boost your high score\. Some of them can even open up new areas of the table to explore\!  Hatchlings can be creatures that come from eggs in real life, like reptiles and birds, but they could also be creatures that in the real world would not, like mammals\. They might even be for a fantasy creature… will you be able to hatch a legendary egg? Magical Pinball         Use your pinball skills to get your new eggs to the Hatchery and earn the points you'll need to care for them\. The magical forest has everything you would expect from a real pinball table\. Face different challenges when the sun sets and darkness creeps in\.    Summon a butterfly coven by hitting blooming flowers   Earn the respect of the moles and they might reward you   When night falls, share the magic of the fireflies   Ride the log chute to the enchanted plateau   Much more\!   The forest is generous and wants you to succeed in becoming the most powerful pinball wizard you can be\. But even the magic of the forest has limits \- if you lose an egg too many times, it's gone for good\!  Come and visit the magical forest next Spring\. We will be giving out a set of special eggs to those who join us in release week, so don't forget to add us to your wishlist\!
