Initially made during this game jam.

I planned to turn this one into a bit of a room puzzle game, but ended up having to settle for... something else.

Shaq's Dream starts at 7:23. This was overall a very funny experience trying to make free throws and 3 pointers. Very weird and random. but I LOVED IT!

no puedo pasar el inicio del juego, mal juego, imposible

As a fallback to make the beginning part a bit easier, spacebar works too.

Try rapidly left clicking with one hand and hitting the spacebar with the other at the same time, or alternate hitting the spacebar with both hands.

a ok gracias no quería hacerte sentir mal perdón

Playing the basketball was pretty fun, good work :)

horrifying but great!! had the same vibes as the flowey bit in undertale - i closed the tab because the screen wouldn't shrink and then the audio kept playing for a full minute afterwards. didn't stop until i searched up this page again. not sure how that works but anyway, very spooky and cool!!

Oh geez that issue sounds terrible and weird, sorry about that. So you maximized the game and wasn't able to escape out when you got to the end? Would you mind sharing the OS and browser you were using when it happened if you get a sec?
