Bouncing the Ball
Read full descriptionHide full description
One ball. Three zones. Keep it alive. The ball bounces freely at the top of the screen. Your tap only counts inside the thin touch zone near the bottom—and where you tap steers the kick. Let it reach the death zone at the very bottom and the run is over. That is the whole rule. Everything else is timing. • Seven balls, each with its own size, bounce and score multiplier—from a forgiving circle to a tiny golf ball. • Five modes, from Practice to challenges that keep getting faster, plus Anomalies: Sudden Gravity, Slow Time and Side Portals. • Skins, effects, fields and atmospheres—53,820 valid combinations, earned by playing. • 71 achievements that unlock balls, modes and cosmetics. • Live multiplayer for up to 8 players, online through Game Center or nearby without an internet connection. • Global score leaderboards for every mode, including a dedicated Anomalies board. The classic modes also share a longest-run leaderboard. • Plays in English, Română, Español, Français and Italiano. Free forever. No ads. No in-app purchases. No tracking. No account or login is required to play. Game Center is optional and is used only for online multiplayer and leaderboards. Made by one person and funded out of pocket, because a game this small should not cost anyone anything.
