🌃 Basketball Night Game
A floodlit, tighter tier: faster meter, narrower make window, from the opening shot.
How to play
- Click, tap, or press Space/Enter to lock the rising-and-falling power meter, it moves faster here.
- Shooting spots range wider than the standard game, including more long-range shots.
- The make window is tighter from your very first shot, not just as your streak grows.
- Build a streak for an escalating bonus, on top of an already-tighter window.
The same distance-reading skill, a genuinely tighter tier
Basketball Night Game runs on the same power-meter, moving-shot-spot engine as Basketball Hoops Shootout, restyled as a floodlit night court, but every number that matters is tuned harder from the opening shot: the meter swings faster, the make window is narrower, and shooting spots cover a wider range including more long shots.
The skill is identical: read your distance from the hoop and match it to the meter's height. What's different is how much margin you get for a slightly-off read, here, there's very little from shot one, and the window only tightens further as your streak grows on top of that.
