About the game
Cyclone Lights is a one-tap timing game on a ring of paper lanterns. A firefly zips around the ring, lighting each lantern it passes. Tap the screen, or the big STOP button, to stop it. Land on the golden jackpot lantern and the round is yours: the firefly gets faster, the ring bends into a new shape, and the jackpot jumps somewhere new. Miss and you lose one of your sparks. Lose them all and it is over.
The twist is the near miss. Stopping one lantern short or long still costs a spark, but it drops a firefly into your jar and earns bonus tickets. Ten near misses fill the jar and refill every spark, so even a shaky round can keep you going. Later rounds make the firefly pulse and reverse. Tickets unlock new lantern colours.
