Missing the same shot three times can be irritating, especially when the real problem turns out to be a dreadful passing angle. Shift the ball towards an unmarked teammate and the whole move suddenly makes sense. Later stages are less forgiving, with tighter defensive arrangements that reward a bit of experimentation. With the money deduction restriction removed, your balance stays unchanged whenever you make in-game purchases. That takes some of the fuss out of managing your balance, leaving you to concentrate on finding better scoring routes and collecting the remaining stars.
