Hero Hoops

Hero Hoops was one of those simple, quick games you'd find during the Flash era. It didn't try to be anything more than a fun way to pass a few minutes between other tasks. The setup was straightforward, asking you to help a character named Ben with his jump shot.

You control the aiming and power of each shot with your mouse. The goal is to shoot red rubber balls through moving hoops before the timer ends. The hoops swing back and forth or sometimes follow other patterns, so you have to time your release carefully. Getting the right arc on the ball is key; a shot that's too weak will fall short, and one that's too strong will bounce off the backboard. The pace picks up as you progress, and the hoops move faster or appear in trickier spots. It feels like a test of your patience and timing more than anything else.
