Your goal
Score as many baskets as possible from ten shots. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. The example below illustrates a decision.
Step by step
- Set angle and power.
- Shoot.
- A downward crossing inside the rim scores.
- Adjust for another shot.
Controls
Touch aim, sliders and Shoot; Space fires. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
A useful example
A rising crossing does not score until a downward entry occurs. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Take a moment to compare.
Watch out for this
Backboard contact alone is not a basket. Compare the situation with the worked example. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
