Both the singleplayer and multiplayer are fun with the multiplayer in particular a big surprise.
This game is seriously one of the most overlooked fantastic games that nobody has ever heard of, I LOVED playing this on my console, and was glad to see it here on steam, sadly, there aren't enough people playing it anymore to easily get a multiplayer game in, but the rest of the game is still really fun. it's a type of top down shooter, with a good variety of weapons, secrets, and variety in characters. it's difficult to explain, but really worth giving it a good try, and get into it for a bit, dont just judge from the early when nothing is unlocked yet, there's a subtlety to the depth of gameplay that comes from unlocking many of the other characters and types of weaponry.
Co-op was the best part here at the time with 4 player support.
So unless you have friends to play with, I would only recommend Madballs for its solo gameplay, and I think the price tag is fair for that alone, even if the campaign is not exactly groundbreaking in any way.
It certainly was unique for the time as there were quite few mainstream games which were this creative in times when Team Fortress 2 could be considered fresh, innovating, groundbreaking with its own classes and cartoonish graphics.
The story is pretty generic, the game is pretty short and way too easy, and doesn't really require switching weapons or characters as much as it should, but it is still fun and still worth purchasing.
