## In short

Wobble Hooper is a pixel-art basketball game for one or two players. Two players on each side wobble around a small court; hold W for the left player or the up arrow for the right player to jump and swing, and drop the ball through the hoop. The court changes between matches.

**How to control it:** Press Play, then choose 1p to play with the computer moving the other players, or 2p to share the keyboard. Hold W for the left player and the up arrow for the right player. A BASKET! pop-up appears after each goal and the score boxes sit in the bottom corners. Use the pause button at the top right. The game is played with the keyboard; turn a phone sideways to see it.

**Wobble Hooper** is a pixel-art basketball game for one or two players. Four loose-limbed players share a small court, each side has a hoop, and a single key makes your player jump and swing. Score by getting the ball through the hoop.

2. Choose **1p** to play with the computer moving the other players, or **2p** to share the keyboard with a friend.

## Tips

- You do not need to press anything to see the game work: in a 40 second run with no keys the scoreboard still showed a 1 to 0 result, because the other players keep moving.
- Try tapping and holding. In our three 40 second runs (hold W, tap W, no keys) the red box ended at 1, 2 and 1 and the blue box stayed at 0.
- Look at the court before you start: it changes between matches, so the background tells you which of the courts you got.
