Eric - I think there’s an interesting idea here. It doesn’t feel like Square Enix is directly lifting the territory-control shooter model but putting its own spin on it with a building-and-battling twist. The characters are colorful and interesting, and there’s a good variety of firing types and skills to make the combat feel varied in each encounter.
It’s the big picture I’m curious about. Foamstars could be something worth dipping into and adding to the slate of Weekend Games with a squad of friends, but I think a lot of that will depend on what more the team has in store beyond the one mode and map I played at Summer Game Fest 2023."

With uninspiring gameplay, hollow live service, platform restrictions, and being outclassed by Helldivers 2, Foamstars didn't stand a chance.
Played Foamstars for about 10 minutes, the presentation made it feel like game made for teenagers. All fluff and no substance.
This game was doomed from the start. Square's gaas track record is atrocious. They often times call it quits on these titles within the first year. Hard to get excited knowing that fact. Anyone half way paying attention to this avoided the game like the plague for that very reason.
Square Enix: "Why are we losing money? Why won't gamers buy our games in huge numbers? What's going on?"

First time seeing this, looks like Splatoon.
Obviously trying to target the Splatoon crowd. Let's call it for what it is. Nothing wrong with being inspired by an extremely popular series that's sold almost 29 million copies
