This is a game where you must dodge falling blocks that come down in a regular rhythm. Use the left and right arrow keys to move between the five lanes, and if you can avoid the blocks for a certain amount of time, the level will increase and the blocks will fall faster. At first, focus on simply dodging and avoiding the blocks! Once you get used to it, try touching the falling blocks and immediately dodging them. If you time it right, you'll get bonus points, so make good use of this to aim for a high score. The element of not only avoiding the blocks but also touching and dodging them (with an instant loss if you mistime it) adds a nice accent to the game.

Thanks to Re-mule for making the original Japanese "Drop the Ball" and to kevin_eleven_1234 for the original "Drop the Ball." To play, press the green flag, then the blue button at the bottom right. Choose a fruit, tap the screen, and start the game. Avoid using Turbo Mode, as it might make the game too intense. Special thanks to -SolarCode- for the fruit images.

Summary of -fairy_floss-’s scratch game description Summary of -fairy_floss-’s scratch game description

In this game, the elevator goes out of control and plummets at an incredible speed. The sense of velocity is really thrilling. Spikes, bubbles, and coins (yellow circles) fall from above, and your goal is to collect the coins while dodging the spikes and bubbles. Interestingly, it might seem like you're going up instead of falling. There is a time limit of 30 seconds. The more you play, the better your timing and reflexes become, so try challenging yourself multiple times.

A game in which you keep catching falling ice cream with a cone. This game is simple and easy to use as an example of a falling game. The super-simplicity of this game almost makes it the origin of falling games, and that’s why I recommend this. I think people who are thinking of making falling games should take a look inside of this project first. There is no need to explain “how to use”, it’s that simple. Every once in a while, a black ice cream comes falling and that one’s a…, uh, yeah that’s obviously what it is!
