    Basketball Time is a new 2D basketball game with realistic physics and simple, yet very challenging gameplay.

    The shooting mechanic is simple - touch the screen and drag your finger to begin your shot motion as well as determine your shot trajectory, and release right as your player reaches its peak for optimal power. Release too early and the ball may overshoot the basket, too late and the ball will barely reach the rim. Your success is based on your skill in achieving the perfect timing and angle on each shot, just like in real life.

    The game features two different modes of play, with leaderboards, achievements, replay sharing, and detailed player statistics. You can also unlock different characters (some with their own ball type) and uniquelocations with in-game currency that you earn, and updates will add additional content in the near future. This is the perfect pick-up and play game for basketball fans.

    Basketball Time is currently available for FREE on Google Play and scheduled to release on the App Store December 11th, 2015!

    Just curious about the mechanics of release? Do you hold on screen and release to shoot? I didn't see a meter for power or anything like that, so I was wondering how your game worked.

    Thanks

    You're half correct! Simply holding on the screen will put your player into a gather position. Once you start dragging your finger, the player will jump and the angle that you drag will determine your shot trajectory. Once you release your finger he will release the shot. Time your release before the player is on the way down.. If you release too early, the shot will be overpowered, but if you release too late it will be underpowered.

    There is a power meter, but it's turned off in the Timed mode.
