Core Mechanics: Grapple → Swing → Release → Fly Forward

Neon Swing is a rhythm-based physics swing game where you control a glowing character using precise timing and momentum. The mechanics are simple, yet the game becomes highly skill-based once you understand swing physics, release timing, and obstacle navigation.

This guide will help you go from beginner to high-score pro.

🧩 1. Basic Controls

🎯 1. Tap → Shoot the Hook

• Tap the screen to fire a grapple toward the nearest anchor point.

• When it connects, your character begins a circular swing.

✂️ 2. Release → Fly Forward

• Releasing the tap sends your character flying based on:

• Current swing angle

• Swing speed

• Momentum gained

🔄 3. Repeat the Cycle

The core loop is:
Grab → Swing → Release → Land → Grapple the next point → Continue forward

⚙️ 2. Core Physics You Must Understand

Neon Swing relies heavily on realistic swing physics.

⭐ 1. Bigger swings = farther jumps

Build more momentum → travel farther.

⭐ 2. Releasing at the lowest point = maximum distance

This is the Golden Release Point.

⭐ 3. Releasing on the upward arc = more height, less distance

Useful for clearing tall obstacles.

⭐ 4. Grapple angle controls your flight path

Left anchor = leftward flight
Right anchor = rightward flight

Master these fundamentals and you'll immediately improve.

🚧 3. Obstacles & How to Handle Them

🔶 Rotating Neon Bars

• Release early to fly above them.

• Avoid grappling too close to the rotation zone.

🔶 Static Walls

• Build a large momentum swing.

• Fly over them with a long diagonal jump.

🔶 Narrow Platforms

• Use small controlled swings.

• Avoid over-jumping; precision beats distance here.

🔶 Long Gaps

Use the Super Swing Technique:

1. Delay your grapple

2. Let momentum fully build

3. Release at the lowest point for maximum air distance

🧠 4. Practical Skill Tips (Beginner → Intermediate)

🟡 Tip 1: Always Build a Large Swing First

Don’t release too early.
A few extra swings = stronger momentum = safer flight.

🟡 Tip 2: Optimal Grapple Timing

Best time to hook:
➡️ When the character is dropping and about one body height above the ground.

This sets you up for a natural, big swing.

🟡 Tip 3: Rhythm > Speed

Most failures come from:

• Random grappling

• Too many actions

• Uneven rhythm

Use a stable pattern:
1 Hook → 1 Swing → 1 Release → Repeat

🟡 Tip 4: Wall-Sliding to Slow Down

If you’re too close to an obstacle:
➡️ Allow slight contact with the wall
➡️ Friction slows you down for a safer landing

🟡 Tip 5: High-Release for Hazard Avoidance

When you encounter tall obstacles:

• Release a bit earlier

• Let your character arc over the obstacle safely

🔥 5. Advanced Techniques for High-Score Players

🟣 1. Double Swing Technique

Used for huge jumps and long gaps.

Steps:

1. Hook

2. Don’t release on the first swing

3. Let it swing again

4. Release at the lowest point → ultra-long flight

🟣 2. Landing Prediction

High-level players always predict:

• Next grapple distance

• Release angle

• Safe landing positions

This allows “blind jumps” with surprising accuracy.

🟣 3. Rhythm Lock Technique

Fix your timing rhythm:

• Same hook timing

• Same release timing

• Same swing pattern

This reduces mistakes and stabilizes your momentum.
