The gameplay is generally well-received, with players enjoying the overall experience, but they note several issues such as janky movement, lack of a jumping mechanic, and subpar Valve Index support. While shooting mechanics can feel realistic with practice, the reliance on teleportation for movement detracts from the experience for some users. Overall, the game is recommended, particularly for those using Oculus Touch controllers.
“As far as the shooting mechanics using Oculus Touch controllers, with a bit of practice and switching the button used to hold the ball to the palm, it can feel pretty much the same as shooting a basketball in real life.”
“The movement is very janky; if you didn't have to teleport, it would be way better. A jumping mechanic would also improve the experience.”
“It hasn't been updated since August, the Valve Index support is poor, and the shooting mechanics aren't very realistic.”
“The shooting mechanics using Oculus Touch controllers require practice, and switching the button used to hold the ball to the palm can make it feel somewhat like shooting a basketball in real life.”
