Basketball Slam Dunk is an extraordinary 2D arcade-styled 2-player game featuring retro graphics, ridiculously bouncy hoopers, and thrilling gameplay. Pixelated ballers are playing a full-court one-on-one game, and they don’t really rely on the jumpshots or fancy dribbles. It’s all about the dunks, and their verticals are absolutely insane!

You can’t drive toward the hoop and take flight at the last moment for a dunk since the only way to move around the court is by jumping. While in the air, players’ arms will move in a windmill-like manner, and despite the mad bounce, posterizing your opponent is much harder than it may initially seem.

How to play Basketball Slam Dunk

The first player to score 3 buckets wins the match. With such little room for comebacks, playing good on and off-ball defense is essential. Protect your rim at all costs, even if it means you have to stand atop it to prevent the opponent from scoring.

Don’t expect to make highlight reels right off the bat since mastering the simple controls is actually quite tricky. Besides judging the flight distance, you must practice releasing the ball from your hands at exactly the right moment to score, even when you’ve positioned the character perfectly.
