About Dunkers Fight
Dunkers Fight is basketball reduced to a scramble for one ball. When the countdown starts, two players get ready to grab it, and the developer's aim is simple: throw your ball and hit the pot — the target you are shooting at — before your rival does.
If your opponent grabs the ball from your hand, the developer says to resist them and protect the pot, so a possession can flip in an instant. It is built as a funny two-person game, the kind the developer pictures friends passing the time with.
How to play
Player 1 moves with A and D and shoots with W or S. Player 2 moves with the left and right arrows and shoots with the up or down arrows. Be ready when the countdown starts, grab the ball before your opponent, then throw it to hit the pot — and if they take it off you, resist them and protect the pot.
Controls
- Player 1 — A / D move, W / S shoot
- Player 2 — ← / → move, ↑ / ↓ shoot
- Two players on one keyboard
Tips to win
- Be ready during the countdown — grabbing the ball before your opponent is the developer's first instruction.
- Shoot soon after you get the ball; your opponent can grab it from your hand.
- When they have the ball, get between them and the pot rather than chasing them around.
Dunkers Fight strategy guide
The countdown matters. The developer's first instruction is to get ready when the countdown starts and grab the ball before your opponent. Whoever reaches it first begins with the advantage, so being ready to move the moment you can is worth more than any technique later on — have your hand on the movement keys before the count finishes.
Two shoot keys each. Player 1 shoots with W or S and Player 2 with the up or down arrow; movement is A and D or the left and right arrows. The developer does not explain how the two shoot keys differ, so try both early on and see what each one does to your throw.
Shoot soon after you win the ball. The developer warns that your opponent can grab the ball from your hand. The longer you hold it, the more chances they get, and the shot that is available now may not be there after you reposition. Players who wait for a perfect attempt often end up defending instead.
Protect the pot, not the player. When your opponent has the ball, the developer's advice is to resist them and protect the pot. Chasing them around leaves the pot open behind you; standing between them and it forces them to throw over you or come through you, which is where the ball can change hands.
Made for two. Dunkers Fight is listed as a 2 Player game, and the developer describes it as a funny two-person game for passing the time with friends. The two sets of keys sit at opposite ends of one keyboard, so two people can share a laptop without getting in each other's way.
Dunkers Fight FAQ
Can two people play on one keyboard?
Yes, that is how it is meant to be played. Player 1 is on A, D, W and S and Player 2 is on the arrow keys, so the two sides sit at opposite ends of one keyboard.
How do I take the ball off my opponent?
The developer says players can grab the ball from each other's hands but does not list a separate steal key. When your opponent has the ball, stay close and protect the pot so they cannot get a clean throw.
Can I play it alone?
It is designed as a two-player game on one keyboard, so it is at its best with a friend next to you.
