Dribbling (set 1)

Dribbling is a two-player soccer game released in 1983 by Model Racing. Players control their teams from an overhead perspective, maneuvering with eight-way joysticks to dribble and pass the ball toward the opposing goal. The game utilizes a palette of 256 colors within a resolution of 256x216 pixels for its visuals, presenting a straightforward sporting challenge. Designed by Lanfranco Chinea, Dribbling features simple controls—two buttons per player—focusing on strategic positioning and skillful ball handling to outwit your opponent. The game’s design was licensed to other companies like Olympia and Zaccaria, extending its reach across European arcades. Running on a Zilog Z80 processor at 5 MHz, Dribbling offers a classic arcade soccer experience that prioritizes direct gameplay over elaborate graphics or complex mechanics.
