Welcome to Backyard Cricket
An introduction to the game, what it's about, and why we're building it.
announcement intro
Hey everyone! Welcome to the official dev blog for Backyard Cricket.
What is Backyard Cricket?
Backyard Cricket is exactly what it sounds like — the chaotic, fun, and competitive game of cricket you grew up playing in your backyard, now brought to life as a video game. Whether you had a tennis ball, a rubbish bin for stumps, or the classic “six and out” rule over the fence, this game captures that spirit.
Why are we making it?
Growing up, backyard cricket was a staple of every summer. We wanted to capture that nostalgia and let people experience it anywhere, anytime — no backyard required.
What to expect
- Fast-paced, pick-up-and-play cricket action
- Multiple environments: backyard, street, beach, and more
- Local and online multiplayer
- Customisable rules — because everyone’s backyard cricket rules were different
