The best part about the game is that the only way of getting out is getting bowled! There are no run outs or catch outs or the very dreaded LBWs. Another fun element is that there are no spins or Yorkers too! The only skill in this game is judgement. And if you do get bowled, the grasshopper turns into a duckling with a sad face, which is hilarious!
Google knows that cricket is loved worldwide, hence wanted to make sure that their Doodle works for everyone, including those on slower mobile networks. “We kept the file size fly-sized, and the result is our smallest interactive Doodle ever – even snail networks can load it in seconds.”
For the Doodle, engineering is done by Jacob Howcroft with Mark Ivey doing the additional engineering. Matt Cruickshank is the art director and Leon Hong is the additional sound designer. Project management and production were handled by Greg Capuano and Perla Campos.
