Play In Your Face Online
Dribble, pass, and shoot with these chunky pixel ballers—customize the rules, then get salty when your friend blocks your fifth shot in a row.
In Your Face is a 1990 Game Boy release from Jaleco, a straightforward basketball game from a time when portable sports titles were more about function than flair. It arrived when developers were still figuring out how to translate team sports onto that small, green screen, focusing on core mechanics rather than spectacle.
You control one of two teams of blocky players, moving up and down the court to score baskets against your opponent. The main objective is simple: outscore the other team before the timer runs out. Signature mechanics include passing the ball between your players to find an open shot and attempting to steal or block when on defense. The pacing is quick, with a focus on constant back and forth action, though the controls can feel a bit stiff and the difficulty spikes noticeably against the computer. It feels like a bare bones but functional attempt to put a full court game in your pocket.
