Sky Sports Cricket Skills
It was a glorious Ashes for the England Team in the 2010/11 series and Sky were keen to give it top coverage. As part of their online presence they came to Team Cooper for a way to turn the gentlemen’s game into a short, action filled online experience. We thought back to playing Ian Botham’s Cricket on the Amiga before deciding to strip cricket down to its three main elements – bowling, batting and fielding. And so was born Sky Sports Cricket Skills.
The overall aim of the game is to score as many points as you can in each mini-game to set the best all-round score. The top eleven players would then make it onto the hallowed Sky Sports Ashes team.
Each mini-game was specifically designed to be as quick and as simple as possible to encourage players to replay it again, and again to beat their previous score. Dual high score leader boards were also featured so that players could compare their score to their Facebook friends as well as everyone else.
