It is a bit difficult to get the ball in the basket, but it is reasonable level of difficulty. Okay sounds,  nice graphics.

Get as many points in 10 seconds in each of the 9 levels. You can only pick that ball up when it's in the shaded area. Good luck!\r\n\r\nThis time I tried to use Construct instead of AS3. The events got messy very quick but its very easy to use and enjoyable to prototype in. Which makes it great for Ludum Dares.\r\n\r\nThe game should run best in Chrome (But also works on my Android phone, veryyy slowly).\r\n\r\nControls:\r\nLeft mouse Button: Pick up the ball\r\nRight mouse button: Toggle sound\r\nMiddle mouse button: Disable music\r\n\r\nHope you enjoy the game!","title":"Basketeerz"}
