Swing Stack | HTML5 Arcade Stacking Game

Video Demo

Swing Stack is a fun and addictive HTML5 arcade game where players must carefully time each drop to build the tallest possible tower.

A block swings from above, and the player taps or presses Space to release it. The goal is to land each block accurately on the tower. Perfect drops increase the streak and award bonus points, while missed drops cost a life.

The game features colorful 3D-style blocks, smooth animations, particle effects, sound effects, score tracking, lives, streak bonuses, progressive difficulty, pause/resume controls, and local high-score saving.

It is built with HTML5 Canvas, JavaScript, and CSS, making it easy to integrate into websites, game portals, HTML5 game collections, and other web-based projects.
