Neon Hoops

🎮 Drag with mouse or touch to flick. Keyboard: arrows set angle/power, Space shoots, R restarts, M mutes.

Flick basketball with real wind — drag to shoot, correct your arc like in golf, chain swishes for combo points and climb from Bronze to Legend in 60-second runs.

How to play

  1. Drag back from anywhere on the court and release to flick the ball — the dotted preview shows the first half of your arc.
  2. Read the flag: each shot has a horizontal wind that pushes your ball mid-flight, so aim upwind like in golf.
  3. Swishes (no rim, no board) score 3, normal makes 2, and every consecutive make adds +1 combo bonus up to +5.
  4. Play the Daily challenge for a seeded wind pattern and hoop placement that is identical for everyone each day.

Frequently asked questions

What is Neon Hoops?

A free 60-second arcade basketball game: drag to flick the ball, read the wind, chain swishes, and climb from Bronze to Legend. No download, no account.

How does the wind work?

Each shot has a horizontal wind shown by the flag; your ball drifts with it, so you adjust your arc like in golf. In the Daily challenge the whole wind pattern is identical for players worldwide.

Is there a daily challenge?

Yes — a seeded course (wind + hoop movement) that's the same for everyone each day, with streak tracking and a monthly mulligan so one busy day won't break your run.

Can I play on mobile?

Yes: flick with one finger on touch screens, full mouse support, and an angle/power keyboard mode on desktop. Progress saves on your device and shares as a card in one tap.
