## What is AetherMaze?

App Name / Subtitle
AetherMaze (30 char limit on name)
Subtitle: Tilt. Roll. Beat the clock. (30 char limit)

Promotional Text
(170 chars — updateable anytime without review; great for hooks/seasonal pushes)

Tilt your way through 10 hand-tuned neon mazes. Chain perfect runs for huge multipliers, grab time-shards, and climb the leaderboard. One more run. Always one more.

Description
(Full long-form. Opens with the hook — the first 2–3 lines show above "more".)

Tilt. Roll. Don't fall.
Guide a glowing marble through a living neon labyrinth using nothing but the tilt of your phone. Easy to pick up, ruthless to master — and impossible to put down.

THE FLOW
Every level is a race against the clock. Read the maze, commit to a line, and roll. Dodge the holes, thread the gaps, and dive for the goal before time runs out. Smooth, responsive tilt controls make the marble feel like an extension of your hand.

CHASE THE STREAK
Clear a level without falling and your Perfect Streak climbs — pushing your score multiplier from 1x all the way to a blistering 3x. Break the streak and you'll claw to rebuild it. The risk-reward tension that keeps "one more run" turning into an hour.

GRAB THE SHARDS
Hidden time-shards reward the bold. Detour into the dead-ends, bank the bonus seconds, and stack extra points — if you've got the nerve to spend the time getting there.

GO FAST, SCORE BIG
Finish with time to spare and earn Speed Bonuses. Lightning-fast clears pay out the most. Every second you save is points in the bank.

10 LEVELS. ONE RECORD TO BEAT.
Procedurally crafted mazes grow tougher as you climb. Earn bonus marbles, survive to the final stage, and bank the completion bonus. Then watch your name climb the leaderboard — and try to beat your own ghost.

FEATURES
• Buttery-smooth tilt controls powered by Core Motion
• Gorgeous modern "Aether" visuals — glassmorphism UI, neon glow, satisfying game-feel
• Perfect-streak multipliers up to 3x
• Time-shards, speed bonuses, and bonus marbles
• 10 escalating procedural levels
• Local leaderboard and high-score chase
• Tactile haptics and reactive sound

No accounts. No nonsense. Just you, the marble, and the clock.

Tilt in. You won't tilt out.
