8-ball

The 8-Ball is a mechanic in the Octo Expansion.

Description
The 8-Ball is a plastic sphere, made to look like an eight billiard ball. It is a black ball with round pink neon on one side and the number eight marked on it.

Usage
The 8-Ball is guided through shooting it with ink. It slows down faster on surfaces that are more rigid.

The 8-balls are used in several stations in the Octo Expansion. Most of them are to guide the 8-Ball to the goal while the others as mini-games:
 * Wassup 8-Ball Station
 * Bumpin' 8-Ball Station
 * Tubular 8-Ball Station
 * Totally 8-Ball Station
 * Bodacious 8-Ball Station
 * All That 8-Ball Station
 * Heinous 8-Ball Station
 * Swass 8-Ball Station
 * Wack 8-Ball Station

Online Mode
Datamining revealed that an 8-Ball Ranked mode was in development. A mode where there is an Eight-Ball at the center of the stage and the players must guide it to the other team's goal.
