Core gameplay Left-click to pass, jump + left-click to shoot (hold to charge power), right-click to dribble. Weighted, bouncy ball physics with real backspin, floats instead of sinking in water. Dunking requires your crosshair to actually be touching the rim no dunking just from standing nearby. A thick, glowing outline previews exactly where a charged shot will land. Scoring hardware 5 rim tiers (Copper Iron Gold Diamond Netherite, the last via smithing-table upgrade), each clanking off the edges and swishing cleanly through the center. A directional Backboard for bank shots (ball phases through from behind), a swaying Basketball Net, a decorative Golden Basketball block, and a 1. 8-block Basketball Trophy. Exploit-proofed: shooting up through the rim from underneath can't score. Scoreboards Small (0 999, craftable with any wood plank), Large (2 2 multiblock), and Extra Large (3 3 multiblock, gold-named) versions all placeable on any face, not just walls. Manual +1 by hand, or link one to a rim with the craftable Scoreboard Linker (highlights linked pairs while held) for automatic scoring worth a configurable point value per basket. Set a target score in the settings screen (shift+right-click) to trigger a confetti burst and a redstone signal when it's hit. Every basket also announces the scorer and point value in chat. Gear progression 5 tiers of speed/jump-boosting shoes Running Shoes Basketball Shoes Advanced Dunker Shoes Elite Basketball Shoes (rare-colored names, the top tier also adds armor). Referee Jersey, Pants, and a craftable Whistle with a real synthesized sound and its own raise-to-mouth animation wearing the striped referee cloth carries a chance of temporary blindness that clears the instant you take it off. Team Jerseys and Shorts in red, blue, yellow, and green, built from real vanilla leather-armor shading for an authentic in-game look.
