Game Play
Hoop
On most shots the hoop is stationary, though if you score many points the hoop may move back and forth.
Each time you make a shot the hoop appears in a different position and you are dropped another ball.
Shooting
Each time a ball is dropped it will either go directly into the basket, or will tend to favor the left or right flipper.
Shoot the ball straight in if you can, or if the angle is wrong consider trying to ricochet the ball off either wall.
You can also pass the ball across to the other flipper to try to gat a better shot angle.
If the shot angle is tough no matter what one great way to score is to shoot through the bottom of the hoop.
Quite often shots up through the bottom of the hoop will fall back downward through it.
If the hoop is moving try to lead it where you think it will be when your ball gets to it.
The rim is rather forgiving, but you have to get the ball up & around onto it, or go through the bottom and have it come back down.
Game over
Your game ends if a ball falls down through the drain.
If the timer reaches zero you do not get to hit the flippers anymore, which will lead to the ball falling down the drain if it isn’t already on its way to going into the basket.
Target Audience
The game is suited for players who like basketball and/or pinball games.
The game has no adult themed content.
