Basketball Showdown 2015

You can spend gold bars to purchase better basketballs from the "Balls" menu. There are five tiers. There are three types of balls in the three middle tiers.

You can enter the shop and check in to get gold bars daily. With each successive day you check in, your gold bonus increases.

Both your opponent's and your own shots are independent from each other. Both sides can shoot as fast as possible. If you end up shooting at the same time, the basketballs may collide on the way to the basket. Most of the time when this happens, only your ball will rebound. Try to time your shots when the path is clear. Keep your finger as straight at possible to make stable swipes in order to end up with straight shots.
Sink five baskets in a row and your basketball will catch on fire. Land another basket while it is on fire to score two points instead of one. You can also use the Reignite Fire boost at any time to instantly light your basketball. When playing online against another human player, you can select your position before the game begins. One player places their position first, then the other player must set their position in a certain radius around the other player's location. This continues until all players have their positions set. Try to position yourself to be as close as possible to the net.

Accuracy is key, so don't rush your shots and time it right.

The key to landing all of your shots is to keep your finger straight at possible.

When you land 5 shots in a row, your ball will become a fireball.

If you get another shot after it catches on fire, you’ll get 2 points instead of 1.

If you're playing catch-up, try not to shoot at the same time as the other guy.

Try to position yourself so that you’re as close as possible to the net when playing online.

Check into the shop every day for some gold bars.
