Keepy Up

Tap the football to keep it in the air. Hit it off-centre to steer it sideways, and watch gravity pull harder the longer you last.

How to play

Press Start, then tap or click the ball to kick it up. Every kick adds one to your count.
Where you hit the ball matters. A tap on its left side sends it right, and a tap on its right side sends it left.
On a keyboard, press Space to kick straight up, or A and D (or the arrow keys) to kick with a push left or right. Keys only work while the ball is dropping through the lower half.
The run ends when the ball touches the ground. Gravity grows and the tap target shrinks as your count climbs.

Wait for the ball to drop low before you tap. Early taps in the top of the screen do nothing.
Aim a little off-centre toward the middle of the pitch so the ball does not keep drifting into the walls.
Small corrections beat big ones. A tap close to the centre keeps the ball nearly straight.
Press P to pause if you need a break. The game also pauses when you switch tabs.

Why did my tap do nothing?: The tap has to land on the ball, and the ball has to be low enough on screen. Taps in the top quarter are ignored.
Does the game get harder?: Yes. Gravity increases with your count and the tap target shrinks, up to a limit.
Is my best score saved?: Yes, on this device only. It is stored in your browser and never sent anywhere.
