MEME HOOPS

MEME HOOPS is fast, top-down, pixel-art 5v5 basketball you play in the browser, on desktop or mobile. 

You are the point guard. Run your man, call for the ball, read the defence, and pick your shot. The other four players are your team, not your pieces.

Early prototype. This is a first playable build: rules, AI, balance and art are all still changing. Feedback is very welcome.

Features

• Two buttons. Movement, Pass and Shoot do everything.
• Timed shots. Hold Shoot and release at the top of your jump. A perfect release burns a trail all the way to the net.
• Lobs over the top. Call for the ball while covered, and your teammate lobs it over the defender.
• Dunks, blocks, steals, ankle-breakers and buzzer-beaters, with a commentator and an arena organ to match.
• Three modes. A full 5v5 match, half-court 3 on 3 to 21, and a short training to learn the moves.
