One ball. One thumb. How deep can you fall? Tap left, tap right, thread the gaps - Freefall is 5 seconds to learn and impossible to put down. Every run counts, every point is earned, and your friends' scores are waiting to be crushed. - PURE SKILL, PURE DEPTH Your score is how far you fall. No boosts, no extra lives, no pay-to-win - the leaderboard means something here. If someone's above you, they out-played you. Simple as that. - RIDE THE EDGE Slip through gaps with pixels to spare and get paid for it - grazing obstacles earns coins, but only if you survive the row. Play it safe or play it rich. - CLIMB THE WEEKLY LEADERBOARD A global top 100 that resets every Monday, plus an all-time board for the legends. Set your name once and defend it. - MAKE THE FALL YOURS Spend your coins on themes: defend the goal in STADIUM, dodge asteroids in COSMOS, drop through hoops in HOOPS, go pixel-perfect in RETRO, don't crack in EGG DROP, run the table in 8-BALL. Every theme is pure style - zero gameplay advantage. - EARN YOUR MEDALS Bronze at 25. Platinum at 250. Most players never see gold. Prove you're not most players. The ball is already falling. Catch up.

Hold to curl. Let go to fly straight. Close a loop around the gold to catch everything inside it. That's Looplight: a one-button arcade game that takes seconds to learn and a long time to put down. LOOP THE GOLD Draw a loop around a cluster of gold and catch it all at once. The more gold in one loop, the bigger the score: doubles, triples, all the way up to eight in a single loop. NEVER TOUCH RED Gold doesn't wait forever. Leave it too long and it turns into a red thorn. Weave between the thorns, or loop them to clear the way. 30 HANDCRAFTED STAGES Three worlds, Dawn, Dusk and Night, each with its own goals: catch streaks, giant loops, thorn harvests, nova chains and survival runs. Clear a stage to unlock the next one and earn up to three stars. ENDLESS AND DAILY Play Endless to beat your best score, or take on the Daily run: a new run every day that is the same for every player in the world. CHALLENGE YOUR FRIENDS Finish a run and share a challenge code. Your friends play your exact run, with the same gold at the same moments, and try to beat your score. GAME CENTER Compare your best scores with friends and players around the world on Game Center leaderboards. MADE TO FEEL GOOD Crisp haptics, punchy sound effects and smooth play on iPhone and iPad. Pause anytime; the game also pauses when you leave it. No ads. No accounts. No tracking. One button and one more run.
