A pixel-art street court from BLACKTOP: a player in a blue shirt rises for a flaming dunk over two defenders.

BLACKTOP

a basketball game i made

2v2 streetball · browser · desktop

you and your childhood friend blue start on the court on your block and work your way up, one court at a time. it runs right in your browser on desktop.

Why I made it

i'm a big basketball guy myself, and i remember loving the feeling of NBA Jam; i wanted something a bit different, and i arrived on blacktop.

World tour

hometown · paris · tokyo · rucker park

starts on your block. local brackets first, then the city championship, then paris, tokyo and a packed invitational at rucker park. win it all and your old court gets rebuilt.

Above the rim

dunks, posters, alley-oops to blue

dunks change with how you attack the rim. hang on it, throw it down on somebody, or toss it up for your teammates.

Celebrations

the hotter you get, the bigger they get

big plays build your heat. get hot enough and the celebrations come out. a backflip, a meteor shower, or a ufo that comes down and takes you. yes, i know it's absolutely absurd. but it's fun, and that's what matters.
