About Double Dribble

Double Dribble is a basketball video game supporting one or two participants. Its design prioritizes immediate action, omitting team customization and statistical management to maintain a fair pace.

Control shifts dynamically to the athlete currently possessing or receiving the ball, while the computer directs other team members. Certain releases include brief digitized audio and cinematic views of slam dunks. Players can choose teams and set various game durations before starting.
