Space Squash

About

Space Squash throws you into a zero-gravity court where you whack a neon ball against a metallic wall. The game uses the Virtual Boy’s monochrome 3D to create a claustrophobic arena, with your character flailing limbs to return shots. A simple back-and-forth mechanic ramps up with speed and spin, forcing quick reflexes. Between matches you navigate a sci-fi hub to unlock new opponents or adjust difficulty. The game’s standout is its use of the Virtual Boy’s hardware. While the system’s limitations are obvious, the 3D effect makes collisions and ricochets feel surprisingly tactile. Players appreciate the tight controls and the way momentum builds across rounds. A niche title but one that captures early 90s arcade energy. Short matches and a focus on high scores keep it replayable for fans of retro sports action.
