Street Basketball Championship

Street Basketball Championship is played on a single hoop, and the whole game comes down to whether the ball goes in. You pick a team to represent before you start, and from then on your shooting is the team's shooting: points you put up push the rivals further down the standings, so a bad run of misses shows on a table rather than just a scoreboard.

The multiplier is what turns a decent session into a good one. Shots that keep going in build it higher, and one miss puts you back where you began, which makes the fifth shot in a row far tenser than the first. It is a simple loop, and the pressure comes entirely from not wanting to break the streak.

How to play

Choose the team you want to play for, then take your shots at the basket one after another. Every ball that drops adds to your score and chips away at the opposition's rating, so the standings move while you shoot. Keep them falling and the multiplier climbs, which is where the big scores come from; miss, and it resets, so a careful shot is usually worth more than a rushed one. Line each attempt up before you release.

Controls

Everything happens with the pointer: aim the shot on screen and release it towards the hoop, and the same aim-and-release works with a finger on a touchscreen. No keyboard is needed at any point.
