Cant get any better than this!

Love the game play.... feels so real like the game I played when I was a kid.... you did a great job on it but would like to request on thing.... sound please! Water or bubble sounds would be great! Give it sound and I will upgrade to 5 stars! Over all very pleased, thank you and keep up the good work!

High on nostalgia, short on realism

I loved this game as a kid (did anyone have the "ring on the dolphin nose" one?). I am thrilled to have this one, and I love how longer button presses equal to harder presses on the physical game. But, it lacks a bit of realism. The mechanism for pushing the buttons and the ball motion is completely predictable and repeatable. Within a couple of minutes I had more than 1000 points in free play mode. The magic (and frustration) of the original was the randomness and the chaos. If you pushed the buttons too fast, they didnt "recharge" with air, and wouldnt do anything. And, similar presses often produced different results. With some more realism, Id give this five stars. As it is, its such a great trip down memory lane that Im not looking on eBay to find the old games for my four year old for Christmas this year...

Perfect if...

I love this. Its definitly one of the first things I do when I am bored. It is very realistic and tons of fun and gives me lots of enjoyment. On that note I would love it if it had sound! That would put the topping ok the cake.

A great time waster.

For $0.99, this game is a no-brainer purchase. The physics are a little off, but this flaw does not hinder the enjoyability of this application. There are three game modes, and two of them allow you to challenge yourself to beat your high score. Thats where the fun is at. The simplicity of the game makes it one of the first I go to when I need to waste time. I look forward to the further development of this application (e.g. WiFi multiplayer.)

Great!

Great graphics, control is realistic! Awesome!

MUST BUY

This app is a must buy.so much fub

Classic!!!

Classic! brings me back to being a kid! A must own!!

Just like the dentists office

For years the real version of this game was placed my hands during the 5 minutes of flouride treatment at the dentists office. Now I can relive the feeling of drooling flavored paste whenever I want for 99 cents.

Must buy

Any child of the 80s and 90s should get this or aqua punt I hope the line expands lots of simple fun!

Suggestions

The football version needs to be in the same app as another skin It needs different skins like plasma, golf ball, or tennis Also, it needs choices like # of balls, and background choices These would make the app the best and get it up in the top 25. Please add these Pretty please?

Perfect!

Five stars for sure! It is so much like the real thing! I loved these when I was younger! Thanks for bringing it to a new generation:) I love the sounds! Also, the way the balls sit on the edge of the hoops and tilt when you just miss is a great touch!

Fun but...

Would be cooler if balls and water looked real but still worth the $

Kinda boring after a while

It gets a little boring after a while but hey, what can u expect from a little game like this. But this is still a great app. I think the feel is pretty real. Online scoring makes it better and make u wanna play more. But I think the people getting like 240points or so on the 1 minute drill are cheating somehow. I cant even get near that.

Initially fun but gets old fast

You loved this when you were five. Youre not five anymore. That said, its only .99; buy it and enjoy it for 10 minutes.

Awesome!!

This is a fantastic game I play this game for hours I always loved this game as a kid but I have some suggestions: 1.you should make a real menu 2.allow background changes, pictures colors ect. 3.smaller hoops/ bigger hoops smaller balls/ bigger balls ( I know Im talking about balls but stay with me here) 4. BUY THIS GAME!

WOW!

This is so much like the real thing! It even almost feels like you are really pushing the air into the water. A great time waster you will not want to put down!

Way too easy -- not enough randomness

This game is a great throw-back to when I was a kid, but it is way too easy. By pushing and holding either of the buttons, you can make 3-pointers every single time. There needs to be some randomness in the buttons, and better modeling of the randomness of an object moving in water. If the dev can improve on this aspect of the game, Ill happily revise my rating, but for now there just isnt any challenge due to the repeatability of every shot. Also, whats up with having to pay $0.99 for every skin? Would it really have been so hard to make the skin selectable in-game? I already purchased Hoops, so Im not going to go buy Punt, Pitch or Baller just to change the graphics. Having these skins all in one game would have added a lot of value.

Wow its amazing!!!

I really like this app. It irks really fun. I really like the fact that there are alot of differnt colors. I would highly suggest to get this app it is really fun!!!!

Awesome

Really fun

Good. Buy it.

Its a great game. Lots of fun to play. One thing I would like to see in an update is when u shoot a ball before the time runs out but the time runs out before it reaches the hoop I think it should count. When u do that this will be a 5 star game.
