BboyArena is an early-stage breaking culture project with a street-inspired visual identity and a browser-first future.
A public work in progress built to grow with the community.
BboyArena is a project about breaking culture, creative movement, and the world around it.
Right now it includes:
- the public website;
- the project identity and manifesto;
- the legal and governance foundation;
- the first technical shell of the game.
It is not yet a playable prototype.
BboyArena is being built to become:
- a place for breaking fans and street culture;
- a browser-based 3D game experience;
- a community-driven project with a strong visual identity;
- a public development story people can follow from the beginning.
BboyArena is currently early / pre-0.0.1.
What exists today:
- public website;
- identity and editorial direction;
- game shell and UI experiments;
- placeholder scenes and technical groundwork;
- documentation for the future architecture.
What does not exist yet:
- a complete gameplay loop;
- a character controller;
- a battle system;
- a scoring system;
- multiplayer;
- a finished playable release.
The project is being shaped around:
- a strong street-level visual language;
- a browser-first experience;
- a clean public surface for updates;
- a community-driven identity;
- a space where development, culture, and marketing can grow together.

The global footer has a preconfigured support area for Buy Me a Coffee and Patreon. It is hidden by default. Configure the URLs in the deployment environment, then enable the master switch and either platform independently:
PUBLIC_SUPPORT_ENABLED=true
PUBLIC_BUYMEACOFFEE_ENABLED=true
PUBLIC_BUYMEACOFFEE_URL=https://buymeacoffee.com/your-handle
PUBLIC_PATREON_ENABLED=false
PUBLIC_PATREON_URL=https://www.patreon.com/c/your-handleAn enabled platform without a valid http or https URL remains hidden. Set PUBLIC_SUPPORT_ENABLED=false to hide the whole area without changing either platform configuration.
The immediate priority is a small playable foundation while keeping the public project understandable and honest. See the canonical roadmap for product, technical, community, federation, and commercial direction.
