Tip: turn your phone sideways, or tap Full screen, for a bigger game.

How to play

  • Press and hold anywhere to shoot a rope at the glowing ring, keep holding to swing.
  • Let go to fly with all your speed, then hold again to grab the next ring.
  • A caged friend hangs over a ring? Grab that ring to pop the cage and set the friend free.
  • Collect the star coins and land on the star trampoline to finish the level.
  • Freed friends follow you and cheer at the end. They are a bonus, never a must.

Controls

  • Phone or tablet: Touch and hold anywhere on the screen to grab, lift your finger to let go.
  • Keyboard: Hold Space, ↑ or W to grab, release to let go, Esc pauses.
  • Mouse: Hold the left button anywhere to grab, release to let go.
  • Gamepad: Hold A (or the right trigger) to grab, release to let go.

Tips

  • Let go at the bottom of the swing for a fast, flat flight, or a bit later for a high arc.
  • A faint ring shows the next anchor you will grab. Plan your release by it.
  • A cage ring lights up as soon as it is in reach. Press while it glows, or fly on to skip it.
  • Freed friends stay free after a fall, so replay a level to rescue the ones you missed.

About this game

Hold your finger down and a rope shoots out to the glowing golden ring. Let go and your jelly critter flies on with all its speed. Swing, fly, grab, repeat: that is the whole game, and it feels great.

You play a round pink jelly critter on floating toy islands that hang from a ceiling of clouds. Hold to grab the lit ring, swing down and up like a pendulum, and let go at just the right moment to sail across the gap. A new ring lights up ahead, so you hold again and chain one swing into the next. Land on the star trampoline at the end for a burst of confetti.

Here is the twist: little round friends are locked in cages that hang over extra rings, low above the clouds or up near the ceiling. Grab the ring under a cage and it pops open! Your new friend hops along behind you in a chain and cheers on the trampoline. Every friend you free earns bonus points and a little more time for your stars, and they stay free for good. It is always your choice: you never have to rescue anyone to win.

There are 24 levels, from a few easy rings to long chains with swaying lanterns, bobbing balloons, bouncy pads and wide leaps where you must let go early and really fly. Each try lasts under a minute. If you fall into the clouds, the critter giggles and you start again at once.

Play with a finger on a phone or tablet, the mouse, the Space bar, or a gamepad. Cloudswing Rescue runs in your browser, held sideways. No download, no sign-up.
