More about this game
In Blinding Lights, your goal is to score as many points as possible by catching glowing fireflies within a 60-second time limit. Each successful catch adds to your combo, which increases your score multiplier by 0.25 every five catches, up to a maximum of 4x. Tapping a hornet breaks your combo and deducts 45 points. As the timer counts down, the difficulty increases with fireflies and hornets spawning more frequently. The run ends when the timer reaches zero.
Tips
- Prioritize catching the Emerald power-up fireflies, as they add 5 seconds to your timer and help extend your run.
- Be careful around hornets; a single mistake costs 45 points and completely resets your hard-earned combo multiplier back to 1x.
- The Gold power-up doubles your score for 10 seconds, so try to catch as many fireflies as possible while it is active to maximize your points.
Questions

How do I get more time on the clock?
You can get more time by catching the Emerald power-up firefly, which instantly adds 5 seconds to your remaining timer.
What are the different power-ups?
There are five power-ups: Gold doubles your score for 10 seconds, Blue clears all on-screen fireflies, Pink slows time for 7 seconds, Emerald adds 5 seconds, and Diamond gives you one gem for the shop.
