## What is ki?

ki - 10th in "focus" (aa, uu, ff, au, rr, ao, rl, sp, th, ki, ci, sn, lo, ba, ov, sh, fi, do, ru & ti)

Tap to make each turn, timing is key. Simply, tap as close to each turn as you can - see what happens. The further away, the worse.

Get through as many turns as you can by tapping as close as you can before each kink. Each level gets more and more demanding, but the dynamic stays simple - just tap, anywhere on the screen.

You can also top the leaderboard and earn medals! (bronze, silver and gold). There's 100 levels to solve right now, intertwined with all sorts of tweaks and surprises. You can also go back and replay any level you've already passed, at any time (Choose Level). If you're stuck on a really tricky level, skip it! (Tap Skip on the Fail Screen) If you can't wait, unlock all 100 levels and replay at your own pace! (Choose Level > Unlock All Levels)

Thanks for all your support, I hope you're enjoying the "focus" series thus far.

### 5/5 — Der

*2026-03-14*

é só apertar a tela quando o círculo chegar na dobra ._.
fácil, né?!?!?!

### 4/5 — Fun but

*2026-01-19, version 3.0.0*

It glitches sometimes

### 3/5 — Nice concept, some flaws

*2024-10-07*

I love this idea, but you sometimes move really slow and have to wait for the next click. Also, the level is sometimes unsightreadable.

### 2/5 — I understand

*2023-12-02*

I understand how the game works, if you get close to the turn it goes slow and if you are farther away from the turn it will go fast. The game is not very good on its own maybe when I’m watching or something but I had to sit and watch that ball go across the screen for 5 minutes. However the screen turns red before it even gets there. Also every 15 or so times I do it will glitch and the ball goes sideways across the black and red screen, not following a line or anything just floating the it will come up and say I failed.

### 1/5 — Where’s the instructions?

*2021-12-09*

A ball sliding down a line, then it gets to a corner and flashes red. No idea what Im supposed to do
