ABOUT THE DEVELOPER

If you’re interested in buying First Person Hooper, please know that it’s a small game solo developed by one person, Ejo of Starch Digital, a hobbyist basketball fan and player. He wanted to create a game that captured the joy of shooting hoops at the park while adding fun video game elements to the experience. This is not a AAA game made with hundreds of hours of content, but one that can grow with you as your skills improve, and one you can replay in short bursts or longer sessions.

All questions, comments, and problems will be taken to heart and addressed as soon as possible! Your feedback and suggestions are welcome and future gameplay updates and modes will be free in hopes to expand the game into the ultimate solo hoops experience. Also, if you do enjoy the game, please let the world know, every word helps! 💛
