Shooter the correct ball to get the score, and do not miss the ball to get fail
How to play One Dot Ball
Nothing here needs explaining twice. The controls are listed in full in the table below — there are only a handful of them. The game runs in portrait, so on a phone you can play one-handed, and on desktop it stays centred rather than stretched out of shape. Restarting is instant, so there is no cost to experimenting.

Why it is worth playing
