Something to practise
Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Keep the objective visible.
What you need to achieve
Score as many baskets as possible from ten shots. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.
The playing sequence
- Set angle and power.
- Shoot.
- A downward crossing inside the rim scores.
- Adjust for another shot.
Controls
Touch aim, sliders and Shoot; Space fires. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
Try this example
A rising crossing does not score until a downward entry occurs. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Notice the change in the playing area.
An important reminder
Backboard contact alone is not a basket. Check the rule before repeating the action. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
