How to play Basketball Shooting

Start Basketball Shooting by looking at the playing area and its controls. Score as many baskets as possible from ten shots. Use the example below to understand a decision. Check the rule that explains your first action. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.

One hoop, ten shots, gravity and rim/backboard collisions.

Build a steady rhythm

Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Make the next step deliberately.

Your goal

Score as many baskets as possible from ten shots. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Start with a deliberate move.

Step by step

1. Set angle and power.
2. Shoot.
3. A downward crossing inside the rim scores.
4. Adjust for another shot.

Controls

Touch aim, sliders and Shoot; Space fires. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.

A useful example

A rising crossing does not score until a downward entry occurs. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Notice the change in the playing area.

Watch out for this

Backboard contact alone is not a basket. Check the rule before repeating the action. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
