Swipe Ball

About Swipe Ball

Swipe Ball is an arcade game where you swipe (or drag) to launch a ball through obstacle courses toward a goal. The swipe direction and power determine the ball's trajectory, and the physics handles the bouncing, rolling, and collision as it travels. Think of it as golf-meets-pinball with a swipe input.

Each level is a puzzle. Obstacles block direct paths, walls require bank shots, hazards punish errant throws, and the goal sits in a spot that demands a specific trajectory. Reading the layout and swiping the right angle and power is how you solve it.

The swipe input feels natural on touch devices and translates well to mouse drag on desktop. The skill is touch - matching swipe power to distance, accounting for how the ball will bounce off walls, and threading it through gaps.

Stroke count or time typically scores the level, so efficiency matters. The best solutions find clean lines that reach the goal in one or two swipes; wasteful play takes many attempts. The puzzle element keeps it engaging beyond the simple input.

How to Play

Swipe or drag from the ball in the direction you want to launch. Swipe length determines power.

Navigate the ball through obstacles to reach the goal. Walls bounce the ball; hazards end the attempt.

Read each level's layout before swiping. Find the line - the angle and power that threads obstacles to the goal.

Solve in as few swipes as possible. Stroke count or time typically scores the level.

Tips

Plan the line before swiping. Each level has a clean solution - find the angle that threads obstacles rather than swiping reactively.

Use bank shots. Walls aren't obstacles - they're tools. Bouncing off a wall reaches angles direct shots can't.

Match power to distance. Overswiping sends the ball past the goal or into hazards; underswiping falls short.

Watch for chain reactions. Some levels have elements (dominoes, triggers) that the ball can activate for bonus paths.
