How a round goes

  1. Morning: Bloop curled up in its bubble, rolling down the striped ski jump over the sea

    Roll

    Bloop rolls down the ski jump. Hold up to lean in and launch faster.

  2. Noon: Bloop in its bubble under the hang glider, a gold hoop ahead

    Glide

    Open the glider. Dive for speed, pull back to climb, bank to turn.

  3. Sunset: Bloop tucked into its bubble, dropping toward the landing ring on the sea

    Drop

    Over a target, tuck in. The ring on the sea shows where you'd land in still air, so aim upwind.

  4. Night: Bloop beaming on a bullseye worth five times, confetti flying

    Land

    Closer to the middle scores more, times the target's multiplier. Drop straight from the glider, no chute, for ×1.5, and be quick.

Tricks

A gold hoop

Hoop chains

Gold hoops give a speed boost. Fly through them back to back to multiply the bonus: ×2, ×3…

An anvil held up by a bunch of colorful balloons

Anvil drop

Grab the anvil floating on its balloons and your next landing drops dead.

A jellyberry

Jellyberries

Floating snacks, +10 each.

Bloop's glider lifted on rising streaks

Updrafts

Columns of rising streaks. Fly in with the glider open and they shoot you up.

Bloop in its bubble, floating under a red and white chute

Chute

Bloop skimming low over the water, throwing spray

Skimming

Fly low over open water for bonus points. Just don't touch it.

Where it started

The Bloop's Big Drop PICO-8 cart

Bloop began life as a PICO‑8 cart: 128 by 128 pixels, 16 colors, and the same roll, glide and drop. The web game grew out of it. The whole original game is still here, packed inside the cart. Drag it onto PICO‑8, or open it in Fake‑08 on a handheld.
