Sport Clash

A brand-new sport that mixes kicking, hoops, racquets, bases, and a team full of different kinds of players.

Current stage: Imagine

Brain dump

The original idea

A pitcher rolls a ball to a kicker. The kicker aims for big hoops to earn extra points, then runs bases on a basketball-court-shaped infield. Outfielders use racquets to hit missed kicks back in, and players can be great at some things but not others.

The heart of this idea

I want it to be a wild new sport where a huge kicker might be slow, a great thrower might not catch well, and every player makes the team feel different.

First experiment

Watch one runner travel a long way to first base, a short way to second, a long way to third, and a short way home.

Tiny next step

What is the first tiny thing your app should let someone do? Start with: Watch one runner travel a long way to first base, a short way to second, a long way to third, and a short way home.

Session timeline

  1. Newest session
    Made
    A first field picture showing the strange base-running path.
    Noticed
    The first picture accidentally used even distances, so we changed it until first and third were far while second and home were close.
    Next tiny goal
    Choose whether the next tiny experiment should show a runner safely reaching first base or a fielder trying to get them out.
