Dyebreaker

About this game

Blast the puck to push your paint in Dyebreaker, the 4-player arcade air hockey-like! Score goals to paint the arena the color of your team. Win the round to add a layer of detail to your team's screen print poster. First finished poster wins!

  • Arcade precision meets physical chaos: blast your body through the air and slam the puck, or hook and throw it with a satisfying slingshot fling

  • Compete across a huge variety of interactive arenas, randomly selected each match

  • Pick from 10 colorful characters across 5 playable teams with a signature graphic design style unique to each

  • Swap team colors at any time, reskinning not just your character but the entire game

  • Hone your skills against CPU players before taking the fight to IRL friends in local multiplayer

  • Grow from rookie to veteran with tight controls that are easy to understand but rewarding to master

The Arcade Comes Home

Dyebreaker is approachable yet rewarding, lighthearted yet competitive. It's tailor-made for IRL contests between friends and strangers.

The original Dyebreaker arcade cabinet can be found at Wonderville in Brooklyn, NY.
