About Falling Balls
Falling Balls is an avoidance game: obstacles descend the screen and you steer left and right through the gaps. It accelerates continuously, so the gaps get harder to reach as your reaction time stays the same.
It's an old and reliable arcade shape — one axis of movement, one thing to avoid — and it works because there's nothing between you and the failure but attention.
How to play Falling Balls
- Move
- ← → or A / D
- Touch
- Drag or tap the sides
- Obstacles fall from the top of the screen.
- Move left and right to pass through the gaps.
- The pace increases as you survive.
- Contact ends the run; time survived is the score.
Falling Balls tips
- Move early, not on reaction — by the time a gap looks close it's too late.
- Stay near the middle so you can reach gaps on both sides.
- Small taps rather than held movement.
- Look at the top of the screen, not at your character.
Falling Balls — questions
Does it get harder?
Yes — the descent speeds up continuously, so the same reaction time covers less distance as the run goes on.
How do you survive longer?
Watch the top of the screen rather than your character, and stay near the middle where you can reach a gap on either side.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes — tap or drag. Nothing to install.
