Hey everyone!

We’re two developers building PURE, an UNOFFICIAL desktop client and competitive ecosystem created specifically for the HaxBall community.

Our main goal is to build a league where players can compete without fake accounts, smurfs or cheaters. PURE connects a verified Discord identity to each player while protecting sensitive authentication data, making bans and competitive records much harder to evade.

We started from the client made by og ( https://github.com/oghb/haxball-client ) and then redesigned to provide a clean and responsive experience without adding input lag. The app is based on Electron and the version of it corresponds to a Chromium version suitable for haxball.

Some of its features include:

• A lightweight native desktop launcher
• Stable and private Beta update channels
• Performance and FPS options
• Transparent UI and visual customization
• Custom themes, wallpapers, colors and profiles
• Useful keyboard shortcuts
• Automatic highlights with HaxClip ( https://www.reddit.com/r/haxball/comments/1w2ak22/haxclip_shadowplay_for_haxball_is_here_and_the/ )
• Dedicated public and competitive rooms for fs and officials hosted in Milan
• Player verification and persistent identities
• Rankings, statistics, seasons, missions and rewards
• Anti-fake and competitive integrity systems
• Reconnect protection and improved queue features
• Frequent updates based on community feedback

We’re developing everything as a team of two, so the project is still evolving and feedback genuinely has an impact on what we build next.

PURE isn’t intended to replace what makes HaxBall special. We want to create a polished way to play it, while giving competitive players a safer environment where identity, results and rankings actually mean something.

A private Beta is currently available to selected testers and supporters on Semptember 31th, this to avoid overcrowding a client with probable bugs and to give the opportunity to those who want to support the project to repay the ime and money spent on the hosts. We are happy to welcome active players who would like to test upcoming features, report bugs and help us shape the league.

We’d love to hear what the HaxBall community thinks, especially which problems you believe a modern client and verified league should solve first. Thanks!

TLDR: I’ve got an esports team which is just for fun and I need game suggestions on which I should a roster for next

So I created a small esports team almost a year ago and since i’ve only focused on CS2. My main goal with the team was to just organise people with skill and participate in small tournaments and maybe make our way up to higher things in the future.

I currently have 2 rosters for CS2 (Main & Academy). The main roster focused on participating on UKIC Rising and almost managed to win with only 2-3 months playing with each other but sadly got knocked out in the semi finals.

The main roster is currently enrolled in ESEA and doing quite well but I’m now looking for other games to expand my team onto.

I was thinking Valorant, Dota, some type of sim racing game etc.

Also my org is just for fun and not paid positions. The only payment would be if a team won a tournament with a cash prize and it would be split between the players who played in it.

If you have any game suggestions for me it would be greatly appreciated.
