WHAT IS SQUAD DUNK?

Short Description

Squad Dunk is a first-person online basketball game with physics-based mechanics, built around team play, timing and playing with friends from inside the court.

Long Description

Squad Dunk reimagines basketball as a first-person online game where players are inside the play rather than watching the sport from above. Control a single player, read the court in real time and work with your squad to create shots, passes, steals and defensive plays. Physics-based shots, passes, and steals make timing, positioning, and teamwork central to every match.

The game is not a strict basketball simulation. It is designed to be easy to understand from the first match, with readable action, low downtime, and a skill curve built around movement, coordination, and physical ball control.

Key Features

FIRST-PERSON BASKETBALL

Play basketball from inside the court. Instead of managing a full team from a distant camera, you control one player directly in first person and experience every pass, steal, shot, and defensive play from your own perspective.

PHYSICS-BASED BALL CONTROL

Shots, passes, steals, and rebounds are shaped by physical interaction with the ball. Timing, angle, movement, and positioning matter, making each successful play feel readable and earned.

TEAM PLAY

Squad Dunk is built around playing with friends online. Move into space, call for the ball, make the extra pass, defend together, and turn individual actions into coordinated team plays.

EASY TO START, FUN TO IMPROVE

Squad Dunk is designed to be accessible from the first match. Players can quickly understand what is happening, while still finding room to improve through movement, timing, team coordination, and ball control.

SCHOOL-COURT ENERGY

Squad Dunk is inspired by the feeling of playing basketball with friends after class: quick to understand, social, competitive, and built around that "one more game" feeling.
