Put your hoops skills to the test in this 60-second arcade-style basketball game. Move the ball left and right with the ARROW KEYS to bounce off walls and score baskets. Hitting the floor only once between baskets will increase your COMBO count - high combos lead to more points and even a trampoline.
Check the STATS screen for a breakdown of all the games you've played. The stats are auto-saved so you can come back later.
This game was made for a Mochi contest - the theme was "60 second gameplay." I'd love to hear your feedback on it - good or bad.

ok for basketball
I distinctly recall the game freezing regardless of the height at the end, but that's not what's been happening any more. Now it only occasionally freezes, possibly related to the height at the end, as neonspider says.
This is the strategy I used: get through the first few nets until one is close to either side, then go through hoop and bounce off the wall to get enough height to get to the next hoop. Hopefully the hoop is either near one side as well, or the next-next hoop is low enough down to just bounce to it normally. After you get a combo of three, a trampoline appears which will always give you enough height when you bounce on it. To maintain your combo, if the trampoline isn't close the hoop, bounce on its rim until the trampoline comes closer.
high combos will naturally lead to high scores, which makes score based ones easy.
To get the high flyer medal, get the trampoline, then bounce up and move left and right to gain height.
To get the 3-pointers medal, shoot a few hoops until an easy one appears, wait for 10 seconds to be left, then go thru the easy basket and get four more as they come down on their paths.
If the timer runs out while the basketball is too high off the screen the game just freezes.
