The invasion is here. All you've got is your finger. Good. Sketchapult is the arcade game where your doodles go to war. Scribble a spear and let it fly. Sketch a boulder and crush everything under it. DRAW LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT Because it does. The enemies keep coming, faster and meaner, and the only thing standing between you and defeat is how fast and how well you can draw. A perfect line is a killing machine. A panicked scribble is a tragedy. Which one you throw is up to you. STEAL THEIR WEAPONS Bombs dropping on your head? Catch them and throw them back. Watch the fireworks. The invasion's dirtiest tricks become your most devastating plays, if you're brave enough to grab them. ONE MORE RUN. ALWAYS ONE MORE RUN. Chase your best score. Chain combos until the screen can't keep up. Take on a new challenge every day. And when you finally go down swinging, share the last doodle you ever drew, glorious or embarrassing. Start doodling. Draw fast. They're coming.
