The Slimeball Hoop is a player-created Curio gadget crafted using the fabricator at The Lab.

Acquisition

The Slimeball Hoop blueprint is available from The Lab's Builder's Shop for 7,500 as soon as The Lab is purchased.

Usage

The Slimeball Hoop is activated when a pure slime is fed through the hoop. When active it plays the song She's On Fire! and begins a countdown from 59 seconds, and begins rotating side to side while moving up and down. Slimes must be fed through the hoop in the alloted time which the display on the hoop tracks. When time is up, the hoop moves back to its default position and updates the high score if the previous one was beaten.

Largo Slimes are too big to fit in the hoop, so they cannot be used for slimeball.

Getting 50 points in a single game of Slimeball is required for the She's on Fire! achievement.

Tips

The easiest way to achieve 50 points in a game of Slimeball is to have the Tank Booster Ultra and Jetpack upgrades, and vac up as many common pure slimes as possible, such as Pink Slimes, and then attempting to shoot them all into the hoop from above aiming for a board fragment closest to the hoop.

Changelog

0.4.0 - Implemented.

Trivia

The word "Slimeball" is a portmanteau of the words "slime" and "basketball", and is also a play on using slimes as balls to play the activity, and an additional pun on actual balls of slime. The Slimeball Hoop appears to be based on an outside basketball net, while a game of slimeball appears to be loosely based on basketball.
The Slimeball hoop is the only gadget that plays music.
