What Is Flappy Dunk?
Flappy Dunk is a casual basketball game combined with the established gameplay popularized with Flappy Bird. Instead of guiding a bird through pipes, you control a basketball with tiny wings, tapping your way through a never-ending series of hoops. The motivation is also obvious, yet the experience is new. Each tap shoots up the basketball, and all you have to do is to keep it going through as many holes as you can without bouncing on the floor or the ceiling. Every dunk scores, creates streaks and generates new basketball designs. The end is not there, it is your high score and your challenge to win it.
How to Play Flappy Dunk
The controls are deliberately low, so that the timing and accuracy are subject to all the pressure.
Game Controls
- Left Mouse Button / Tap - Flap the basketball upward
That’s all you need to know but mastering it takes practice.
Core Gameplay
- Tap to keep the ball in the air
- Set your flaps to go through hoops clean
- Do not touch the floor or the wall
The run ends immediately there is some missing of a hoop or loss of control.
As you get further on, the hoops can be of varying heights or angles and you are forced to change rhythm there and then.
Scoring and Progression
Each hoop that you go through gives you a point. Clean streaks are particularly rewarding and assist in propelling you to leaderboard-worthy runs. It is not a race with any point limit and so the challenge is all about skills and the longer you are focused, the better it is.
Tips to Improve Your Score
- Apply short and controlled taps to ensure stable height.
- The objective is to reach the centre of every hoop to prevent awkward bounces.
- Maintain a constant pace rather than panicking with the increase in speed.
- Think of the next hoop and not where you are at the moment.
It is more about consistency rather than speed. Hauling control outpowers panicking every time.
Flappy Dunk is simple to play, difficult to master and can be played over and over again. It puts arcade fun to the finish line, fast, gratifying and sporty with a leaderboard or just a few minutes to kill.
