Download HOOP RUSH

HOOP RUSH is in Alpha 1.0.0. Built for Windows, with a Mac OS build alongside. The game creates your account on first launch. Online play needs the internet; LAN and solo work anywhere.

First run

The alpha is unsigned, so both operating systems ask once before they trust it.

Windows

  1. Unzip HOOP-RUSH-<version>-win-x64.zip anywhere, then run HOOP RUSH.exe.
  2. Allow the app through the firewall prompt if you want to host LAN games.
  3. Updates are automatic: the game checks the feed on launch and under Help → Check for Updates.

macOS

  1. Unzip and drag HOOP RUSH.app into Applications.
  2. Launch it once and let macOS refuse, then open System Settings → Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway. On older macOS, right-click the app → Open.
  3. Or clear the quarantine flag in Terminal:
    xattr -cr "/Applications/HOOP RUSH.app"
  4. No auto-update on Mac yet: swap the app for the new zip each version. The game tells you when one is out.
