Okay, so I’ve been wanting to dive into those “Steven Universe” volleyball games, you know, the ones you see floating around online. I finally decided to give it a shot, and man, it was a bit of a journey. Here’s how it went down:
First, I started by just hitting up Google. I typed in something like, “steven universe volleyball games online” and hoped for the best. I got a bunch of results, some looking kinda sketchy, others looking more legit. I avoided the ones that screamed “viruses!” and focused on the ones that seemed like actual fan-made games or maybe even official Cartoon Network stuff.
I found a couple that looked promising. One was on a site that hosted a lot of fan-made games. I clicked on it, and it loaded up in my browser. It was pretty simple, pixelated graphics, but hey, it was volleyball with Steven Universe characters!
- I figured out the controls pretty quickly. It was mostly just using the arrow keys to move and the spacebar to jump and hit the ball.
- I played a few rounds, and it was… okay. Kinda fun, in a basic way. The characters had different stats, which was neat, but the gameplay itself got repetitive fast.
Then I tried another game I found on a different site. This one was a little more polished. The animation was smoother, and there were more characters to choose from.
Getting Into the Gameplay
This game had more going on. There were special moves! Each character had a unique ability they could unleash. It added a layer of strategy, trying to time your special moves just right to score a point or block an opponent’s attack.
I spent a good hour messing around with this one. I tried out different characters, experimented with their special moves, and even managed to win a few matches against the computer. It was definitely more engaging than the first game I tried.
Honestly, these “Steven Universe” volleyball games are a mixed bag. Some are super basic, others have a bit more depth. But overall, they’re a fun little distraction if you’re a fan of the show. I wouldn’t spend hours on them, but for a quick dose of Steven Universe-themed fun, they do the trick. That’s my experience.
