How to play Basketball Shooting
Open Basketball Shooting, check the instructions and begin a round. Score as many baskets as possible from ten shots. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Treat the first round as a chance to learn the controls. Look at what changes after your first action.
One hoop, ten shots, gravity and rim/backboard collisions.
Try a deliberate move
After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Keep the objective visible.
Your goal

Step by step

Controls
Touch aim, sliders and Shoot; Space fires. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. A new-round button replaces the current round.
A useful example
A rising crossing does not score until a downward entry occurs. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Take a moment to compare.
Watch out for this
Backboard contact alone is not a basket. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
