Read details on the game below:
In Foamstars, foam is the ultimate resource. It can be used in multiple ways: To create slippery surfaces that players can use to surf around the arena at high speed; to build terrain, helping players defend from enemy attacks or creating high vantage points to take out opponents; and finally, to foam up the opposition and win the match.

"Do you think they'll notice the Splatoon ripoff?"
"Nah"
Square enix looked at Splatoon and said
"We can do that too"
"You can copy my homework, but change it up enough so that no one will notice."
Looks like a Splatoon ripoff.
That's a good thing for those who don't have a switch.
It looks significantly worse than Splatoon.
Splatoon from Wish
I guess better steal something good than make something terrible. Somehow Square still manages to do both.
We have Splatoon at home
This is sooooo splatoon like..... that its actually crazy. Wonder if this will be a success without cutsie type characters and charm of nintendo games, on non nintendo systems.
Didn't have my reading glasses on, so I thought it was something along the lines of SE presents Pornstars where sperm is the ultimate resource and foursomes and lots of shooting is all the rage. but upon finding my glasses the inkling that I had read it wrong turned out to be true
"FINALLY!" - no one
Splatoon-inspired. Looks neat though, I have an affinity to games that try new twists on old formulas.
Wow that is the most blatant knock off I've seen from a major publisher in a long time. Looks absolutely soulless.
I wouldn't hold my breath. Square hasn't had many recent successes that didn't have Final Fantasy in the name or the HD-2D games.
Do you remember when Disney Infinity tried to copy Splatoon, back when DI was a thing?
So this is a online multiplayer shooter, surely with microtransactions and live-service elements. Remind me again how many of those has SE abandoned and left to die in recent times?
So when's release?
Looks pretty cool!
No squids though which goes well thematically with ink.
Bootleg Splatoon
