Jump, shoot, and dunk your way through fast-moving hoops in Hoops - Basketball Dunk. Hoops is a quick, skill-based basketball game built around one simple action: time your jump, release the ball, and land the dunk. Every shot matters as the hoops keep moving, the pace keeps climbing, and each level pushes you to score before time runs out. Aim for clean dunks to build your score, chase Special hoops for bigger points, grab Life hoops to stay in the run, and hit Multipliers when you are ready to take the score higher. Watch out for bad hoops that can cut your score, subtract points, or cost you a life. Features: - One-button jump-and-shoot gameplay - Moving hoop rows that get faster as you score - Level progression with score goals and timed pressure - Many different hoops for dynamic gameplay - Compete for high score - Game Center leaderboard support - Quick retries so a great run does not have to end too soon Simple to start, tough to master, and built for one-more-shot runs.

About

Gulpse

Features

Every move costs mass. Touch and drag anywhere to aim, then release to launch. Eject fragments to gain thrust, absorb lifeforms with less mass than you, and avoid anything larger. Consume every Goal before time runs out, and collect Stars to improve your level rating. Each level introduces a new spatial challenge. Gravity pulls lifeforms together, some grow or decay over time, pulses disrupt your route, and erosion can turn an easy meal into a costly mistake. Plan your path, manage your mass, and master momentum in a handcrafted offline puzzle game.
