StarGames's Ball Dodge uses survival time as its only scoring metric. Every second you keep your ball from being hit adds one point to your score. There are no points for anything else, not for close calls, not for collecting items, not for moving your ball in a specific pattern. This scoring model makes the game's objective absolutely transparent. The longer you live, the better your score. Improving by even five seconds on a personal best represents a meaningful step forward in evasion skill. Because score is time-based, the pacing of the game's difficulty escalation directly affects scoring potential. The game becomes harder over time, more balls, faster movement, which means surviving longer requires handling progressively greater difficulty, not just waiting out an easy period. The simplicity of the scoring system also makes comparison meaningful. A score of 60 is better than a score of 45 by exactly 15 seconds. There is no ambiguity about what a higher score represents: more time spent alive under increasingly hostile conditions. Ball Dodge stores your best time as a high score and maintains a history of recent attempts. StarGames is fully offline and no account is needed.
