About Basketball Arcade: Sports Arcade Game with Free Throws

Basketball Arcade is a sports arcade game where you step up to the line and prove your basketball skills through a series of free throws taken from different angles and distances. Before each round begins, you choose your team, then race against both a ball count and a countdown clock to sink as many shots as possible. The game ends when all 20 balls have been thrown or the timer reaches zero — whichever comes first.

Several scenes show the court rendered in clean 3D graphics, with the hoop visible at varying distances from the shooter's position.

How to Play Basketball Arcade

Each shot starts with a quick check at the top of the screen, where the distance to the hoop in meters is displayed. Press and hold the left mouse button to charge the shot; release when the indicator on the right side matches that distance value. Nail the timing and the ball finds the net — miss it and the opportunity is gone.

Consecutive successful shots trigger in-game bonuses that affect your final score:

• 3x: awarded for 3 consecutive goals, impacts your final score, and grants a fireball

Controls

• WASD / Arrow Keys: Moving
• Spacebar: Jump
• Left Click: Shoot
