The game

Retro Pickleball is a pixel-art sports game for Android. Players build a career from local clubs to the championship, playing fast swipe-controlled rallies on hard, clay, grass and indoor courts while managing fans, morale and sponsors between matches.

My contribution

I designed and built the whole game — touch controls and rally physics, opponent AI, the career, economy and fan systems, the retro UI, and the ad and in-app purchase integration for the Android release.

Highlights

  • Swipe-based touch controls for dinks, drives and smashes
  • Career mode across four court surfaces
  • Fan, morale and sponsorship systems
