About

Breakaway is the product of a solo dev's love for the sport & obsession with video games. Refined, fair, & fun gameplay is the aim, and community feedback will be essential in order to refine Breakaway in the best ways for years to come. Micro-transactions, DRM, and so-called AI "art" are explicitly not a part of this game.
