## What is Around the World?

Jump, hover, and rotate your way through a gravity-defying endless runner. A minimalist one-tap arcade game where the world spins and gravity flips when you least expect it.

Run across pixel-style streets in Berlin, Amsterdam, and Paris as day turns to night. Tap to jump, avoid obstacles, and survive each rotation as the world turns upside down.

Simple to learn, hard to master.
Chase your high score in a retro-inspired runner designed for quick sessions and infinite runs.

Features

• Gravity-flipping world mechanics
• Retro pixel-style arcade aesthetic
• Locations inspired by Berlin, Amsterdam, and Paris
• Endless runs with increasing difficulty

Can you keep running when gravity turns against you?
