How to play Basketball Shootout
Score as many points as you can in 60 seconds. A new ball appears at a random spot on the court after each shot — you can shoot again while the last one is still in the air.
Controls
- Mouse / touch: press anywhere and pull back like a slingshot, then release. The direction and length of the pull set the angle and power. The dotted arc previews the start of the flight (shorter on harder levels).
- Keyboard: ← → change the angle, ↑ ↓ change the power, Space shoots.
Scoring
- 2 points per basket, 3 points from beyond the arc (the dashed line).
- Swish (nothing but net): +1 bonus.
- Make three in a row and you are on fire: every basket scores double until you miss.
- Bank shots off the backboard count, of course.
Levels
Easy: the hoop stays still. Normal: the hoop starts sliding after 20 points. Hard: it moves from the start and speeds up. Your best score for each level is saved.
