Retro Bowl Fan-made — Play Free Online

Retro Bowl Fan-made is a small football game built on Scratch by the user adove15, inspired by the pixel-art look of Retro Bowl. It is a fan project, not the original game from New Star Games, and it is much simpler: there is no season, no roster and no team management, just plays on the field.

You run the offense. Each play you snap the ball, move the quarterback and throw to a receiver by clicking where the pass should go. According to the project notes the defense is not under player control yet, but both offenses are, so two people can take turns at one keyboard.

How to play Retro Bowl Fan-made

1. Click the green flag inside the player to load the game.
2. Press Space to start the play.
3. Move the quarterback with WASD while the receivers run their routes.
4. Aim with the mouse and click to throw.

Retro Bowl Fan-made controls

• Space: snap the ball and start the play
• WASD: move
• Mouse: aim the pass
• Left click: throw

Tips

• Throw early; the longer you hold the ball, the closer the rush gets.
• Lead a running receiver: aim at where he will be, not where he is.
• Short passes are completed far more often than long bombs.

Retro Bowl GG keeps this fan game next to the real thing so you can compare. Play Retro Bowl for the full season and team management, and this Scratch project for a quick look at how one fan rebuilt the passing game.
