Dunk Dunk News

Good day, folks!

First of all, big love to anyone reading this who has already tried Dunk Dunk!

If you haven't yet, here's 15 minutes of me challenging my boss to the last playtest!

With that out the way, it's time for our first update to the Dunk Dunk playtest that we're running right now!

This time, we're giving you a new map "SubLab" which features more platforms and a wicked water effect to throw you off course. We're also mixing up the game with new mutators, swap out the regular ball for a saw blade that sticks into surfaces and/or turn on moon gravity to really get some height on those DUUUUUNKS

So what are you waiting for? What? A convenient link to take you to the Dunk Dunk page, placed directly at the end of this article? Easy!

Hello, soon to be Dunk Dunk enjoyers!

My name is Steve, community manager here at Playtonic, we're publishing Dunk Dunk for the guys over at Badgerhammer!

We know that the best way to understand Dunk Dunk is to get folks playing it to see what all the fuss is about for themselves SO, today we're starting our very first public playtest of the game! We've added Yooka, Laylee and some other Playtonic Friends characters to the draft too... check 'em out!

This first playtest will give you a taste of the basketballing, platforming chaos you can expect when the full game releases next year AND give you the chance to provide feedback on what you like/don't like to potentially shape future updates! It's a win-win (Dunk-Dunk?) situation!

For this first playtest, we've put together a demo that showcases the Cursed Crater Cemetary level, as well as a handful of the mutators planned for the final game!

Hone your skills with the basic Dunk Dunk ruleset and then mix it up with the Hand-Egg ball mutator and unlimited air dashes! Both of these completely change the vibe of the game, adding an extra level of unpredictability combined with infinite mobility!

Once you've smashed out a few games, jump into the Playtonic & Friends Discord where we've got a special forum set up specifically for Dunk Dunk! You can share feedback, bug reports, or just share your sweetest Dunks!

And if you REALLY wanna help out, DUNK that Wishlist button to support us even further!

We'll also be hosting a panel to talk about the evolution of Playtonic over the last 10 years! Playtonic Friends Brand Manager Anni Valkama will be talking with Fluffy Laylee artist Steve Mayles, software's very own Simon Gerges, the King of Kongs, artist Kev Bayliss and Playtonic's glorious leader, co-founder Gavin Price (who appears to be attempting some form of Camo Cloak in his promo selfie?)



Come along and say hi, play some games, tell us they're good, or tell us they're bad, but mostly good, please. But be honest! But not too honest. Just come and play them. Play all the games. We'll sort the rest out later!

Sup folks!

Steve here from Playtonic! We are very pleased to announce that Dunk Dunk is coming under the loving wing of Playtonic Friends, for us to assist Badgerhammer with all things publishing!
