Planet Basketball

Planet Basketball is a 2D arcade sports game. It's like basketball, but space-themed. You throw mini planets into black holes and score points. You need to throw the planet into the enemy black hole (indicated by the P2 icon right above it) to score, and the enemy star needs to throw the planet into your black hole (indicated by P1 icon). 

While you play, the rest of the universe goes on as usual, and might interrupt you. More than one planet can appear, a whole new star system can appear and spawn or catch planets, planets can develop moons and rings that defend them from crashing into other planets, white holes that send planets the other direction, or quasars can OBLITERATE everything. A lot more stuff can happen too! (known issue: game might freeze when there's too much stuff going on)

There's also an extra pool/snooker mini-game. It's just normal pool, but with planets, black holes, and the same obstacles as before (except stars and star systems). There are no enemies, just you playing pool. The objective is to shoot the planets into the black holes while avoiding obstacles before the time ends.

Made for Untitled Game Jam #124, under the theme "Mini Planets".
