About Basket Random
Basket Random from RHM Interactive turns basketball into a gloriously clumsy physics comedy. Each team has two long-limbed players, and all you control is a single button that makes them jump and flail their arms. Somehow, out of that wobble, you need to grab the ball and throw it through the hoop. It rarely looks graceful, but a lucky buzzer-beater feels fantastic every time.
The twist is in the name. After every point, something changes: the court, the ball's size, the players' bodies or even the gravity. One round may feel almost normal, and the next might have you slipping on ice with a giant ball. Matches are short, unpredictable and full of laughs, especially when a friend sits beside you on the same keyboard.
How to play Basket Random
Each side controls a pair of ragdoll players using one key. Press the button to jump, and your players will reach and swing their arms. When one of them has the ball, releasing the key at the right time throws it toward the basket. Scoring a basket earns a point, and the first team to reach five wins the match. After each point, the game randomizes something, from the court surface to the ball or players, so you have to adapt on the fly. Play against the computer or challenge a friend in local two-player mode.

Tips & strategy
- Don't hold the button constantly; short taps keep your players upright and ready to jump for the ball.
- Release the button while your player's arm is swinging upward to send the ball in a higher arc toward the hoop.
- When the ball lands near the opponent's feet, jump early to block their shot rather than trying to steal.
- Adjust your timing immediately when a new random round begins, since ball size and gravity change the throw arc.
- Stay close to the basket on defense; many points come from rebounds and scrappy put-backs.

Basket Random FAQ
How do you throw the ball in Basket Random?
Hold your jump button so your player reaches for the ball, and once they have it, let go at the right moment to throw. The timing of the release decides the arc. Releasing as the arm swings upward usually gives the best chance of sinking a shot from a distance.
What changes between rounds?
After each point, the game randomizes elements such as the court, the ball's size, player proportions or even gravity and surface friction. These changes keep every round fresh and make it impossible to rely on one strategy, so part of the fun is adapting to whatever strange setup appears next.
Can two people play Basket Random on one Chromebook?
Yes. Player one uses the W key and player two uses the Up Arrow, so two friends can share one keyboard. On Classroom 6X the game runs in the browser without installing anything, which makes it a popular choice for quick head-to-head matches.
