## What is Between?

Between is a one-thumb traffic weaving game built around a single feeling: the gap that was almost too small.

Hold your thumb down to drive, slide to steer, lift to brake. Pass close and you score. Swerve between two cars and you score big. Touch three and the run is over.

THREAD THE GAP
Close calls, in-betweens and underpasses chain into a combo. Lifting your thumb is always safe, but it never scores: points only come while you are on the throttle.

A GARAGE WORTH FILLING
22 cars from an honest hatchback to a pair of diamond hypercars. Paints in gloss, satin, matte, metallic and pearl. Rims, calipers, spoilers, vinyls, underglow and headlight colours, all fitted per car. Handling, brake and power upgrades you can dial back whenever you like.

A ROAD THAT KEEPS CHANGING
Day turns to night, the sky changes with your score, and haulers leave just enough room to drive under their trailers if your car sits low enough.

FAIR BY DESIGN
Upgrades are bought with coins you earn on the road. Diamonds come from the daily reward or the Shop and unlock cosmetics, a continue and the two hypercars. An occasional ad plays between runs, and one purchase removes those for good; every other ad is one you choose to watch for a reward.

Weekly leaderboard, daily rewards, cloud saves. No account needed.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.7 — 2026-10-27

- New traffic: the road never closes all four lanes in front of you. Past the first kilometres it comes in waves, dense twisty stretches with short breathers, tighter the further you go. There is always a way through at full speed.
- Tunnels: every few kilometres the road dives into a tunnel and you come out somewhere new. Get through without a strike for CLEAN TUNNEL.
- LATE: swerve out of a car at the last moment for a bonus.
- Combos now go past x10, up to x15 for long chains.
- No more lost runs: if the game closes mid-run, your score and coins count the next time you open it.
- A new look for every car: deeper paint and crisper reflections, real factory wheels on the Shuttle, Hauler, Ranchero and Trailhead, and a new Deep End blue for the Pebble.
- Sharper picture on iPhone 15 Pro and newer, and shadows under every car.
- Double coins now sits right next to your coin total.
- Plus fixes: no more cars stuck to the side of a hauler.

### 1.0.6 — 2026-10-22

- Cars you own now show their price in the garage.
- The Phoenix 455 and the Sanremo 70 have brighter headlights at night.
- Candy Apple paint is a true candy red instead of orange.
- The Fumi SC's pillars and rear deck are solid: no more seeing through the car.
- Big IN BETWEEN scores no longer run off the edge of the screen.
- After a new best, the game may ask you to rate it, now and then. A rating helps other drivers find Between.
- Plus smaller fixes.

### 1.0.5 — 2026-10-20

- Four new cars: the Saba V12 and the Fumi SC for coins, and two hypercars for diamonds, the Goblin V12 and the Abyss GT7, the fastest cars in the game. Every paint, rim, spoiler, body part, vinyl, light and flame fits them.
- A real gearbox: every car shifts 5 to 7 times depending on its speed.
- New exhaust sound: shifts crackle and pop, and lifting off burbles, instead of booming.
- New in the Shop: Remove Ads. A short ad now plays between some runs (never in your first runs and never right after a new best), and one purchase removes them for good, on every device you sign in on. Ads you watch for a reward stay your choice.
- Gifts from the team now arrive by themselves, with a card.
- Join the Between Discord from Settings.
- The results screen holds still: GO AGAIN no longer moves when your weekly rank or Double Coins appear, and everything fits on smaller iPhones.
- Reduce Motion is respected: score popups always show, and the camera no longer shakes or zooms.
- A better first run: the tutorial now explains close calls, combos and strikes, SKIP shows the controls, and ending it from pause no longer brings it back next time.
- Continue shows the score you are saving and your diamond balance.
- Garage: vinyl previews show the actual design, a big purchase shows its price on the second tap, gear fitted to a car you are only browsing is marked as such, and the coin and diamond pills open the Shop.
- The daily reward says when a missed day restarted the week, and the game now recovers by itself if your very first launch had no connection.
- Settings shows your sign-in right away, and real names such as Kinoshita or Scunthorpe are no longer refused on the leaderboard.
- A crash, a light touch and a shield save now each have their own vibration, plus many smaller fixes.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-10-16

- All new sound: real recorded engines, six engine types with each car getting its own, gear shifts that land with the exhaust pops, wind and road noise that grow with speed, and cars whooshing past on the side you pass them.
- Every hit sounds different: a crash, a scrape along the rail and a shield save each have their own sound, and coin lines climb in pitch.
- Sound comes back after a phone call, an ad or switching apps. The game follows your iPhone's silent mode, so your own music keeps playing.
- A new look for the world: the distant haze blends into the sky, sunsets glow at the end of the road, mountains have snow caps and a far range behind them, and the roadside has grass verges and road studs.
- No more mountain sitting on the road: the highway now runs into the haze between the mountains, and cars far ahead ease into view.
- Faster start: the menu appears sooner and the first seconds no longer stutter. Opening the garage is smoother too.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-10-14

- Sign in with Apple or Google to keep your progress on any phone. Optional: you can still play as a guest. Settings, ACCOUNT.
- Delete your account and its data any time from the same place.
- Sharper picture on iPhone: the game now starts at the right quality for your phone and keeps it while the scenery loads.
- Launch with style: press at the start and the rear tyres spin, smoke and leave rubber on the road.
- The tutorial no longer waits forever if you skip a step, and it glows when a card needs you.
- Cloud saves and the leaderboard answer several times faster.
- Lane markings now show around your car on the menu, and the road no longer ends behind you.
- Optional play stats help us balance the game. You can switch them off in Settings.
