Bakudo is a sci-fi action game where players throw balls in combat, set at Soliris Academy, where protagonist Yuria must defeat the ranked Stellar Eight within ten days.
Bakudo's Steam page lays out the setup: Soliris Academy trains students chasing the title of top Corestriker, and Yuria arrives following a lead on her missing father. She breaks the rules during her entrance exam to save a fellow examinee and loses her admission on the spot. Aria, the strongest student and the one atop the Stellar Eight, gives her an ultimatum to defeat the ranked eight within ten days or leave for good. Combat centers on throwing balls, and the story promises a secret behind the academy's reputation.
