First Person Hooper

First Person Hooper is an arcade-style basketball game focused on the jump shot. You shoot from a first-person view using controls inspired by first-person shooters, with a lock-on aiming system and shot power and timing that respond to your position and movement. Play in a relaxed island setting, customize the court, and use movement bonuses and power-ups to score.

Game modes

• Arcade: score in creative ways and aim for the highest total within a chosen time limit.
• Spot Up: make shots from designated court spots and try to set the fastest time.
• Zen: shoot at your own pace, practice your jump shot and view your stats in real time.

Shooting and scoring

The game combines lock-on aiming with power and timing mechanics, and also offers an additional skill level for players who prefer manual control. Scoring variations include perfect releases, swishes, bank shots and fadeaways. Consecutive shots build multipliers of up to 4x, and you can power up a shot for a guaranteed make. The game also includes semi-realistic basketball physics, secrets, bonuses and special zones.

Customization and stats

You can customize the ball, court, hoop and crosshair, as well as the interface and other aspects of the game experience. A stat sheet and shot chart track shot types and percentages, and a lefty option supports left-handed players. The lo-fi instrumental hip-hop soundtrack is by hypoetical.

Scores and progression

Online leaderboards are available for Arcade and Spot Up. Steam leaderboards include Top 10, Global and Friends categories, and Steam Cloud synchronizes high scores. The game also has 15 Steam achievements, with more to come. It is designed for replaying in short bursts or longer sessions as you work to improve your jump shot, beat your best times and set high scores.
