Editor review
Glide Court is a basketball arcade with explicit shot-percentage display. Five-a-side; sixteen teams.
What works is the shot-selection menu. Each player has a shot rate that depends on position. The pre-shot display lets you choose between current shot and passing.
Sixteen teams with varied skill profiles.
Tested over three Wellington cable car sessions from Wellington.
Where the design earns its four stars is the shot-percentage transparency. Most basketball arcades hide the math; this one surfaces it.
Where I would push back is the absence of custom team mode.
Four stars. Solid basketball arcade.
