About

Pocket Dunk

Features
Read full description

Pocket Dunk is not just an arcade game, it is an exercise in concentration and abstraction from reality; a virtual toy designed to transform you into the minimal expression of humanity. Descend through space, dodge dangers, and score to pave your way toward dissociation. DEEP PHYSICS: mapped to the millimeter. Nothing is a coincidence, every bounce counts, and a clean shot scores double. MINIMALIST GAMEPLAY: just you and your trajectory. Dodge moving traps, fly over danger, and wallow in an offensively cozy gameplay loop. GLOBAL COMPETITION: the journey is solitary, but the rankings are global. Improve your score and show others who you truly are. Defy infinity, and prepare for infinity to defeat you time and time again.
