Robot Roller Derby Disco Dodgeball has become the most highly-rated multiplayer game on Valve's service of all time. With a name like that, can the user reviews be blamed?
The title is still in Early Access, which makes the feat even more impressive, and is described as an Arena Combat FPS in which you "race around a skate park / dance club in jet-powered robots and hit each other with exploding dodgeballs". Oh, and it was all made by just one person--developer Erik Asmussen.

The trailer below shows off the action, and gives a very clear picture of what to expect from the game. All hits in Robot Roller Derby Disco Dodgeball are instant kills, but you can catch or deflect enemy fire in addition to performing an array of trick shots. The game also features objective-based modes such as Elimination, Hoops, and Demolition Derby. There is bot AI, as well as leaderboards for single player, and one-click server setup for free online multiplayer.
Robot Roller Derby Disco Dodgeball was added to Steam Greenlight in 2013, where it succeeded by February 2014. It was released into Early Access back in March, and is targeting an early 2015 release date. The Early Access price is currently $9.99.
