Free, no sign-up. Keyboard, touch or gamepad.
How to play
- Tap the three colour pads (or Left / Down / Right for red / blue / yellow) to recolour the ball and hop.
- Space, Up or a tap above the pads hops without changing colour.
- P to pause.
On touch
- Tap a colour pad at the bottom to change colour and hop.
- Tap anywhere above the pads to hop.
Every run starts on the title screen. Pause any time with P or the pause button; calm mode removes flashes and screen shake.
Maker’s note
Every tap is a hop, but where you tap decides your colour, so one thumb is doing two jobs at once. Bands are wide at first and narrow as the run goes on, and the gates arrive on a rhythm that tightens just enough to feel it. The streak rewards the middle of each band, because the edge is where the walls are.
