Store description excerpt
SIXTEEN LANES. THEY ALL LEAD TO YOU. A retro arcade game rebuilt rather than emulated — original code, original art, no ROMs and no legal grey area. You hold the rim of a neon well. Things climb up the lanes toward you out of the dark, and the only thing between them and the rim is your claw. Slide around the rim, shoot down the lanes, and never let one arrive. THE DOORSTEP PAYS DOUBLE • Kill something at the far end of a lane and it counts. Kill it as it reaches the rim and it pays a clutch bonus on top. • That is the whole tension: waiting is worth more, and waiting is how you die. The safe play is always available and always worth less. DEPTH IS THE CLOCK Everything climbs through five depth rings. You can read exactly how much time you have by where a threat sits — the game never hides the timer, it just dares you to use all of it. WAVES PAY, CLEARS PAY MORE Clearing the field pays 50 for every thing you took down, and every wave you finish pays 200 times the wave number on top. A TUBE SHOOTER, DONE PROPERLY The lane-and-rim tube shooter is one of the great lost arcade shapes, and almost nobody builds them any more. This is that shape on a touchscreen: sixteen lanes, one thumb, and a rim you slide around rather than a stick you fight. CONTROLS Slide around the rim — one thumb, no buttons. Or switch to tilt in Settings and calibrate it to the way you actually hold your phone. RETRO ARCADE, FULLY OFFLINE • No account, no sign-in, no internet needed. Not an emulator and not a ROM front-end. Every mode plays offline. • No paywall. Nothing is locked behind a purchase. • No energy meter, no lives timer, no waiting. • Your personal top ten, plus a permanent local high-score wall. WHAT YOU UNLOCK • 272 vector cosmetics across six categories — claws, arenas, backgrounds, scenes, screen modifiers and soundtracks • 20 original soundtracks, each with a preview before you spend a coin If you want retro arcade games that are actually games rather than emulator shells, and that work with no signal at all, start here. Free to play with ads and optional in-app purchases. Optional rewarded video: watch one to continue a run or top up coins. Always your choice, never forced. The one-time VIP Arcade Pass removes interstitial ads, doubles the coins you earn, pays a 25,000-coin bonus, and unlocks two Solar Gold cosmetics up front.
