Despite these issues, players find it enjoyable and believe it has potential for improvement. Overall, while stability is a concern, the game remains playable and fun.

- “The dribbling is a bit weird for me since it doesn't work 100% of the time; the shooting is pretty well done, but the guiding hand glitches out sometimes whenever I use it.”

Reviewers feel that the game's music is lacking, suggesting that the addition of light background music and crowd sound effects would enhance the overall atmosphere and make the experience feel more lively and engaging.
- “I played some horse and it just feels a bit empty; maybe light music or something would make it feel more lively. Even a few people in the bleachers booing or cheering, along with louder sneaker sounds and the bouncing of the ball off the ground or hoop, could go a long way.”
