Sorry for the delay in bringing this somewhat frivolous news story to you; we’ve been dunking on Trump for the last half hour.
The new web game from artist Jayson Musson allows you to leap skyward and hit a stunning slam dunk over the 45th president of the United States.
The Dunk on Trump game couldn’t be any simpler. All you need to do is hit the space bar a few times and your 8-bit sprite sends Donald sprawling across the playground.
There’s no way for him to defeat you and, as Trump would say, you’re going to do so much winning, you’ll be sick of winning.
If the game gets a little repetitive there’s an awesome, funky, NBA Jam-style soundtrack from MegaPixel music to keep you entertained while you posterize the prez.
“This project isn’t really a game, I just wanted to offer people the opportunity to slam dunk on Donald J. Trump,” Musson writes on his website (via The Verge).
“I’m not a game dev at all, I hardly know what I’m doing, but much like Donald Trump, I didn’t let ignorance or lack of technical competence get in the way of my dreams, which is to let people vicariously dunk on Donald J. Trump.
“Anyway, this is repetitive as shit with no win condition, but I’m hoping that someone out there will find my endless dunker perversely therapeutic and lose themselves 2 tha dunk, babyyyyyyyyyy.”
You can take the game for a spin on Jayson’s website, or download a 58MB file so you can play offline. You can even throw him a few quid if you so desire.
