A careful first round
Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Use the example to check your reasoning.
Your goal
Score as many baskets as possible from ten shots. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
Step by step
- Set angle and power.
- Shoot.
- A downward crossing inside the rim scores.
- Adjust for another shot.
Controls
Touch aim, sliders and Shoot; Space fires. Read a button’s label before selecting it. A new-round button replaces the current round.
A useful example
A rising crossing does not score until a downward entry occurs. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Choose a deliberate next step.
Watch out for this
Backboard contact alone is not a basket. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
