Blacktop Hoops: Kickstarter is Live!
Hey, Hoopers!
We are excited to share that we have finally launched our Kickstarter campaign for Blacktop Hoops! The campaign features a number of exciting backer tiers, with additional stretch goals that start from new environments and courts to customizable characters, cribs, and more!
Using funds from the Kickstarter campaign, we plan to expand the game with more customizations, a trading system, your own customizable in-game crib, and cross-platform functionality, among other things. All Kickstarter backers will receive a copy of the game when it releases, and there are tons of other physical and digital rewards as well for those that support the game!
We’re excited about this new chapter in Blacktop Hoops’ development, and we are grateful for all the support that all of you have given us at Vinci Games. Stay fresh, hoopers!
