Basketball Nightmare

Summary

Basketball Nightmare is a basketball game in which the player competes against bizarre humanoid creatures on courts located in the creatures' natural habitats. The player must defeat each opponent to progress to a new location with a tougher challenge. The journey begins with a match against Wolfs in the Forest, followed by a battle against Frogs at the Pond, One Eyed Aliens at the Waterfall, Vampires in the Skeleton Cave, Geishas in the Bamboo Forest, and finally, a showdown against Samurais at the Shrine. If the player loses a match, they can replay it until victory is achieved. At the start of each match, the player chooses the game duration from three options: 15, 30, or 45 minutes (not real time), after which the game begins. On the court, the player always controls the team on the right side. The game starts with the player attempting to catch a throw by pressing a button at the right moment. Once in possession of the ball, the player can move, pass, or jump. When jumping, the player can shoot, with the shot's accuracy determined by timing, or choose to pass instead. In defense, the player can move around the court or run into opponents to contest for the ball. Several penalties can be called, including Travelling (not passing after a jump), Charging (when the player with the ball collides with an opponent), and Pushing (when the player without the ball runs into an opponent). All penalties result in the opposing team gaining possession of the ball on their side of the court.
