Bubble Swing

Bubble Swing: Extreme is a fun physics puzzle game for all ages - a bubble shooter where timing, not aiming, decides everything. You don't aim. You let go. A bubble hangs from a crane on a swinging chain. It is moving before you touch the screen and it will keep moving after. Swipe to cut, and everything that happens next was decided in the instant you chose - the speed it had, the angle it was travelling, the wall it will glance off on the way down. Cut a moment early and it falls short. A moment late and it sails past. There is no aiming line, no dotted arc, no second chance. There is a pendulum and there is your timing, and the whole game lives in the gap between them. THE PILE GROWS THE WRONG WAY Forget everything a bubble shooter taught you. Here the bubbles stack up from the floor, and they hang off it - cut a group's last link to the ground and the whole cluster tears away and falls out of the level. Learn to read the pile from underneath and you can drop half a board with one bubble. AND IT IS COMING FOR YOU A crane is winching the whole platform upward, one row at a time, toward a line you must not cross. You get a warning: a few seconds of the pile shuddering before it lifts. A few seconds to find a shot, or to spend something. SIX THINGS TO SPEND A bomb that clears everything it touches. A saw that shears straight through the pile and keeps falling. Electricity that leaps between neighbours whatever their colour. A teleport that hunts every bubble sharing a colour with what it lands against. A one-ton weight that slams the platform back down a row. And a sniper scope that masks the screen to a single hole you walk across the board by tilting the phone. HUNDREDS OF BOARDS, AND THEY ARE NOT RANDOM They were drawn. Flags, fruit, faces, mosaics, geometry, and one board with a hungry mouth left open, waiting to be fed. Every one of them is a picture before it is a puzzle, and every one can be taken apart if you find the right thread to pull. Reach the end and the game does not stop. It folds back and keeps counting, and the number on your screen keeps climbing. ALSO INSIDE - Game Center leaderboard and achievements, several of them genuinely hard - Tilt controls for the scope and the parachute - Picks up exactly where you left off, even if the app was closed mid-swing - Universal - iPhone and iPad Bubble Swing: Extreme - a fun, fast puzzle game built on physics, timing, and a pile that will not wait. Easy to pick up, hard to put down.
