How to Play Street Hoop / Street Slam / Dunk Dream (DEM-004) (DEH-004)?

1. Basic Movement: Use the Arrow Keys or the WASD keys to move your player up, down, left, and right across the court.
2. Player Actions:
   • Press the A button (Z key) to perform a variety of actions depending on game context. Use it to pass the ball, steal the ball when on defense, or perform a lob for an alley-oop.
   • Press the B button (X key) to shoot or attempt a safe layup. Tap for shorter shots and hold for longer jump shots. When on defense without the ball, press B to attempt a steal.
3. Slam Dunk Execution:
   • Position your player close to the basket, ideally when cutting toward it from the side or from a run.
   • Press the B button (X key) to leap. Unlike a layup, a successful dunk attempt will trigger a powerful animation that is much harder to defend.
4. Mastering the Dunk Meter:
   • Play great basketball to fill your dunk meter. Cleanly stealing the ball, completing successful passes, and scoring will all build this meter.
   • Once your dunk meter is fully charged or partly filled, any dunk you perform will be even more powerful and spectacular, leading to big celebrations or even breaking the backboard!
5. Winning the Game: Points are scored for every basket. Win the match by outscoring your opponent within the time limit. Keep the ball movement fluid and focus on building momentum to execute your grandest plays and demoralize your competition.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens when you break the backboard? Breaking the backboard typically results in a pause in the game for a big spectacle moment and awards extra points for the spectacular dunk.

Is there a way to block dunks from the other team? Yes, you can attempt to block a shot or dunk by jumping and colliding with the shooter at the right moment when you're playing defense. Timing is crucial!

How do you perform a Humiliation Move? These are performed at specific times, often when you have a lot of momentum or a full dunk meter. A successful special pass or steal followed by a massive dunk can trigger these. The exact inputs can sometimes vary by player or require specific contexts during the match.
