In Bopl Battle, players control animated slimes, known as 'Bopls', that fight each other using various special abilities. The goal is to be the last slime standing by defeating your opponents in creative and unexpected ways^[3]^[4].

Abilities

Dash: The Bopl launches towards the cursor.
Grenade: The Bopl holds a grenade for a set time, which can explode and kill the Bopl if held for too long. The grenade can also be thrown at other players.
Bow: The Bopl turns into a bow and slowly falls if not released.
Engine: Places an engine on the platform to move it.
Blink Ray: The Bopl turns into a ray, shooting towards the cursor and turning any object invisible for a short time.

Rock: The Bopl turns into a boulder, killing any Bopl in its path.
Missile: Launches a missile that follows the cursor and explodes on contact.
Spike: A sword emerges from the platform below the Bopl.

Smoke: Functions like the grenade but releases smoke and dust, exploding if certain conditions are met.
Platform: Creates a platform below the Bopl.
Revival: Revives the player the first time they die. Multiple revives clone the Bopl.
