I have been inspired by Retro Bowl to create my own retro-type football game ‘BitBall’. I was just wondering if anybody would like to help with concepts, art, scripting, etc.

I need somebody who knows how to use the dart extension since I am having troubles with it as well, I am currently trying to position it but it does not use the same functions as average sprites do.

Like as a football field, whenever you let’s say get tackled, you would use the tilemap and say that you ran \_ yards.

Let’s say the football field may be too big then at that point you would take the yards divided by however much you want.

Hey everyone! I’m back! I just wanted to revive this post since I really liked the concept, and I haven’t worked on a makecode game in a while. Here’s the prototype,

> **[BitBall Prototype](https://arcade.makecode.com/52927-19770-11996-06088)**
>
> Made with ❤️ in Microsoft MakeCode Arcade.

Also regarding what @Purp13 said, we do not need a z-axis, just an x, and y. I am planning on this being a 2d game.
