Gameplay
Gameplay
Punk Shot features two groups of street punks, the Ramblers and the Slammers, who play streetball. Up to four players can play the game; the player can assault and tackle opposing players to prevent them from holding onto the ball, while aiming to score by throwing the ball into the net with teammates. Hazards appear frequently, such as manholes, bombs and cats which hurl obstacles at the punks' direction. Usual basketball rules do not apply other than that the players score properly.
