How to play Basket Random
Choose 1P to face the computer or 2P to share a keyboard. Each side has two players. Send the ball through the other side's hoop to score. The first side to reach five points wins.
In solo mode, press Up to move the team on the right. In two-player mode, the left team uses W and the right team uses Up. Each key moves both players on its team.
The players jump, reach, and tumble when you press their key. They can grab the ball and send it across the court. Watch the ball and the players before each jump. The moving bodies can knock the ball loose or send it toward a hoop.
After a basket, the game resets the players for the next point. The court, players, and ball can change. We saw a city court, a snowy court, and a beach court during our matches.
In our Chrome desktop test, repeated Up presses helped us score three points in a solo rematch, which the computer won 5-3. The pause button opens a menu with resume and return-to-menu controls.

Tips and tricks
- Click inside the game, then press Up to start moving the solo team. The court shows the key hint at the start of a match.
- Watch both teammates when you press your key. They jump together, so one can reach the ball while the other moves near the hoop.
- Try short repeated presses to keep your team moving. In our solo rematch, that approach produced three baskets.
- Check where the ball lands after a collision. Players can fall over and the loose ball can roll to either side.
- Look at the new court after each point. The setting and ball can change before the next possession.
