How to play
Real ball physics — drag from the cue ball and pull back to aim, release to shoot.
Aim & shootDrag away from the cue ball — the cue aims the opposite direction and power scales with how far you pull back. Release to fire.
RulesStandard casual 8-ball: pot a ball to claim solids or stripes, clear your group, then legally pot the 8-ball to win. A foul (scratch, wrong ball first, or no contact) hands the opponent ball-in-hand.
Single playerThe AI plans real shots with ghost-ball geometry — it estimates where the cue ball itself ends up after contact and avoids shots likely to scratch, scales its miss chance to how hard the cut actually is, and taps out a safety shot when no clean pot exists.
2 playersSame device, alternating turns — pass it over after each shot.
KeyboardArrow keys nudge your aim, hold Space to charge power, release to shoot.
