Ham Dunk

Ham Dunk is the second episode of Season 2014 of Angry Birds Seasons, Ham Dunk: All-Star is the first episode of Season 2015 and Ham Dunk: The Finals is the third episode of Season 2015. This episode honors the start of the NBA season, the NBA All-Star weekend competitions,and the NBA Finals.

Levels
Ham Dunk includes a total of 67 levels; (after The Finals update) four themes with 15 levels each. (except Theme 5 which has only 7 levels)

Theme 1 contains ten levels that follow no particular theme and five that are themed off of a country, with one stage each representing Germany, Turkey, and Brazil, and the final two levels representing China.

Theme 2 contains fifteen levels each themed on a team from the NBA's Western Conference. Likewise, Theme 3 does this as well, with 15 levels based on teams from the Eastern Conference.

Theme 4 contains the All-Star levels, with some special levels like Celebrity Level (4-3), Rising Stars Level (4-6), Half Time Level (4-8), Three Point Level (4-10), Skills Level (4-12)and the Slam (Ham) Dunk Level (4-14).

Theme 5 contains 7 levels dedicated for the NBA Finals. There is even a scoreboard tracking the points (stars) collected on that theme and the default score after updating is 0-20, so the player must get all 21 stars to defeat the pig.

2015 Updates
Below are the two Ham Dunk updates on 2015, as described by AngryBirdsNest.

All-Star Update
Ham Dunk gets a new update in 2015. This update includes:

◦15 new levels added to the Ham Dunk episode! Some are themed around certain aspects of the All-Star Weekend, such as the Three Point Shootout and the infamous Slam Dunk Contest. (walkthroughs are live if you need help.)

◦New Golden Egg! There is one hidden in-game (please don’t say here — some people might want to find ‘em themselves). Note: These new levels are not required to unlock the Big Basketball level. (you need help finding any of the Golden Eggs hidden in Angry Birds Seasons? Check out our complete guide.)

◦Pig Days! 11 more levels added to the “Coming Soon” list! For a complete listing of which levels are released when, see our Pig Days Guide. The next level is set to be released for Valentine’s Day, it seems. Note: Some users had issues with the “Cloud” download system last time, and it looks like it is being used again. Please let us know of any issues.

◦Return of the Mighty Spalding Basketball! These presented a very interesting challenge last time around, and we’re sure they’ll be no peewee game in this set of levels.

◦No new achievements for iOS, which is expected since the SD version is completely full and the HD version only has 4 points available.

◦Slam Dunk Bonus! Each bird or basketball which falls through the hoop counts — no, not for 3 points — but for a whopping 5,000 points!

Another minor addition is that once per level, the Shockwave Power-Up can be used for free. And of course, the new app icon is sweet!

The Finals Update
This update comes with a decent amount of additional content, so let’s get rolling!

This update includes:


 * 7 new levels added to the Ham Dunk episodes! Some are themed around certain aspects of the NBA Finals fever. Our walkthroughs are live if you need help.


 * New Golden Egg! You must collect all seven pieces of the Golden Ring to unlock it. If you need help finding any of the Golden Eggs hidden in Angry Birds Seasons check out our complete guide.

 * Ham Dunk is the second episode to introduce a substitute to the Mighty Eagle, in this case the Mighty Basketball, after the Mighty Dragon from Year of the Dragon.
 * Ham Dunk All-Star episode is in Seasons 2015. However, the old one is still in Seasons 2014.
 * In theme 4, Shockwave turns into StateFarm Shockwave Power-up and can be use for free for any level in theme 4.
