About this game

No ads. Bank the shot. Strike the kite. Light the festival sky.

Glowtide is a one-thumb trick-shot game set above a lantern festival. Casual lanes are lined with festival posts: drag to aim, and the glowing aim line shows each bank before you let go. Thread a lantern between the posts, ricochet it off one to reach the far side of the canopy, or bounce it off the Windkite as it sails across the lane.

THE FESTIVAL LANE
• Festival posts in every casual run. The aim line predicts every bank, so a great shot is a read, not a gamble.
• The Windkite crosses within seconds of every casual start, in four flight patterns: glide, wave, swoop and crosswind. Strike it with a fresh shot for bonus points.
• Pair two lanterns of the same colour to light the next tier. Each tier has its own colour, paper pattern and candle-lights, and keeps nearly the same size, so the canopy stays readable.
• Keep the canopy above the festival rope. Lanterns that hang below it build pressure.

ROUTES THAT CHANGE THE PHYSICS
• Open Sky Festival: the classic lane of posts and wind.
• Moonlit Promenade: a side current that reverses every few seconds. Pairs made against it score 1.5x.
• Golden Bazaar: warm updrafts lift the whole canopy. Pairs made during one score 1.5x.

PLAY YOUR WAY
• Official Daily Tide: one ranked run with the same seed, route and Festival Kit for everyone.
• Pro Open Daily: after Official, play the same board again with saved Festival Kit specials on its own board. Pro board · unlimited runs · best run ranks.
• Endless Rise: save your run and chase a new high score.
• Glow Rush, Crownlight Quest and Lamplight: focused Pro modes with their own goals.

MASTER THE FESTIVAL
• Earn three powers: Gather pulls the canopy together, Updraft lifts it clear of the rope, Harmony pairs a useful match for you.
• Eight Festival Kit specials, each with one clear rule for one launch.
• Grow the Festival Canopy, complete achievements and fill the Tidelight Atlas.
• Paper launch sounds, lantern chimes and haptics, each adjustable in Settings.

COME BACK TO THE GLOW
The Official Daily advances your streak. Every third consecutive Official awards a Festival Kit special; every fifth awards a Tide Charm that can protect one missed day. Pro Open never changes the Official score or its rewards.
