Swishlight

Swishlight is arcade basketball you play with one flick. Swipe up from the ball: the length of your swipe sets the arc and power, the angle sets the aim. Drop three swishes in a row and you're heating up for double points; make it five and the ball catches fire, trailing flames all the way to the rim for triple points. Clank one off the iron and the streak holds; miss and the fire goes out.

The ball is properly simulated. It spins with backspin, kisses off the glass, rattles around the rim and drops through a cloth net that snaps and swings with every make. Beat the buzzer with a ball still in the air and time slows down while the whole arena holds its breath.

Arcade gives you 60 seconds and keeps moving you deeper, then starts the hoop sliding and rising. Career is 60 challenges across six tours: wings and corners, bank-only shots, swish-only shots, moving and rising rims, trick shots off a boost pad, a floating glass panel and a pinball bumper, and money-ball racks. The 3-Point Shootout is five racks around the arc against the clock, with the money ball last in every rack. H-O-R-S-E is one on one against three AI rivals: call your spot, make it, and make them match it. And there's a new Daily Challenge every day with its own twist.

Play in three courts: the Grand Hall, with glossy hardwood that really reflects the lights and a sell-out crowd that jumps when you score; the Skyline Roof, a court 41 floors up at sunset with the city lighting up below; and Neon Alley, a rain-wet blacktop where the neon signs shimmer in the puddles. Earn coins in every mode to unlock the courts and twelve balls, from Blacktop and Tricolour to Magma, Nebula and a mirror-chrome Prism.

Built in real-time 3D with soft shadows, reflections, bloom and depth of field, and a lighter graphics path that keeps phones smooth. Plays in portrait or landscape with touch, mouse, or the keyboard (hold Space to power up, arrows to aim).
