Crank Basketball is a first-person arcade shooting game for Playdate. You line up the shot with the d-pad, crank to set the arc, then keep cranking while the ball is in the air to curve it into the hoop.
The developer says the levels never run out, and each one adds a twist: sliding and moving hoops, wind, bank shots, shooting while you walk, and bonus rings you can only hit with a curveball. There are Easy, Medium and Hard difficulties, a high score chart and a quick four-step tutorial. It was published on itch.io on 2 Nov 2026 for $4.
