Swipy Basketball

About Swipy Basketball

Swipy Basketball is a Unity-built browser arcade game where you swipe to launch a basketball at a hoop that sways side to side. The core loop is simple but demanding: time your swipe to when the hoop is centered, sink the shot to score and keep your combo alive, and miss and the run ends. Difficulty ramps as the hoop movement gets less predictable the longer you last.

How to play Swipy Basketball

1. Watch the hoop as it sways left and right instead of sitting still.
2. Swipe upward on the ball to launch it toward the hoop.
3. Time your release for the moment the hoop is centered for the best accuracy.
4. Score a basket to earn a point and keep your run going.
5. Land clean shots (without touching the rim) to earn bonus points, and stack two in a row for a chance at a golden ball.
6. Collect stars from golden balls to unlock new character skins.

Controls

• Desktop: Click and drag (swipe) with the mouse to aim and release the shot.
• Mobile / tablet: Swipe with your finger on the touchscreen to launch the ball; fully playable on phones and tablets.

Swipy Basketball tips & strategy

• Do not shoot the instant you see the hoop; wait for it to pass through its centered position before releasing.
• Watch the sway pattern for a beat before your first shot so you can predict its rhythm rather than react late.
• Aim for clean, rim-free shots when you can; two in a row opens a shot at a golden ball worth bonus stars.
• Keep your swipes consistent in speed and length rather than varying power randomly; consistency makes timing easier to repeat.
• Use unlocked skins as a target to chase, but prioritize survival and combo length over rushing risky shots.

What makes Swipy Basketball fun

The swaying hoop turns a normal basketball shooting game into a timing challenge, and the star and skin unlock system gives runs a reason to keep going beyond just a high score.
