Valve have updated the developer guidelines for releasing a game on Steam, making it clear that the scourge of mobile gaming advertising-based business models are not going to work on Steam.

      You mean like Mutant Football League 1 and 2??

      https://store.steampowered.com/app/529520/Mutant_Football_League/

      https://store.steampowered.com/app/1657320/Mutant_Football_League_2/

      If you want a local multiplayer arcade basketball game check out Dunk Lords

      https://store.steampowered.com/app/612640/Dunk_Lords/

      If you want a shockingly good local multiplayer arcade volleyball game check out Super Volley Blast (seriously how is this game so good, it is just volleyball??)

      https://store.steampowered.com/app/822040/Super_Volley_Blast

      it looks like the same indie devs have an arcade tennis local multiplayer game too called Super Tennis Blast but I haven’t personally tried it yet like I have the rest of these games

      https://store.steampowered.com/app/1050510/Super_Tennis_Blast/?curator_clanid=34945402

      If you are willing to stretch your definition of “sport” here a bit check out the local multiplayer handball brawler Hyper Brawl

      https://store.steampowered.com/app/591760/HyperBrawl_Tournament/

      Lastly, check out the airhockey meets top down action team based hero game Omega Strikers. This game isn’t pay-to-win and it really deserves a lot of love! Don’t pass it over just because it looks like it could be another live-service casino disguised as a game.

      edit silly me I forget to recommend the absolutely phenomenal Lethal League Blaze

      https://store.steampowered.com/app/553310/Lethal_League_Blaze

      fuck you EA

      edit 2 - does Rock Of Ages count as a sports game? It certainly has lots of balls, a clear goal for those balls to go in and a set of sensible and logical rules to how those balls get there which leads to mythical stories about heroes, sounds like a sportball game to me so what if the sportball is made of living sheep
