About Basket and Ball

Basket and Ball is a platformer where you are the ball. Each level is an obstacle course of moving platforms, spikes and gaps ending at a basketball hoop, and you have to bounce, roll and time your way there without falling.

The physics are the puzzle: the ball keeps its momentum, so a jump taken at the wrong point in a bounce sends you somewhere unhelpful. Levels are short and restarts are instant.

Basket and Ball tips

  • Jump at the bottom of a bounce for maximum height.
  • Let the momentum work; fighting it wastes the bounce you already have.
  • Study moving platforms for a cycle before committing.
  • Short controlled hops beat one big leap on tight sections.

Basket and Ball — questions

How do you jump higher in Basket and Ball?

Time the jump at the lowest point of the ball's bounce, when its downward momentum reverses. Jumping mid-air or at the top of a bounce gives far less height.

Is Basket and Ball a basketball game?

Only in its goal — each level ends at a hoop. The play itself is physics platforming rather than sport.

Does it work on a Chromebook?

Yes — a light 2D game with nothing to install.
