## What is Kessler Sky?

You run Earth's launch pad.

Hold to choose an altitude, let go to launch. Satellites that meet in the same orbit dock into bigger ones: cubesat, comsat, telescope, lab, station, ring habitat, Gateway. Every lap they fly pays you. Cross two orbits and they collide. The debris keeps orbiting and shreds whatever it meets next. When the debris wins, the sky closes.

That is the Kessler syndrome. It is your fault. You will want to go again.

ONE THUMB
- Hold anywhere: the marker climbs the orbit shells. Let go: launch.
- Release with the arrow straight for a clean circle; release off-centre for an ellipse that crosses traffic.
- The path preview turns red when it will cross an occupied shell. Every crash is a choice you made.

BUILD THE SKY
- Same shell, same kind: they dock into the next tier. Seven tiers, from a cubesat to the Gateway.
- Build a Gateway and the Moon comes online: double income for the rest of the run.
- Three daily contracts give every run a purpose beyond the score.

DAILY SKY
- The same satellite queue for everyone, once a day. One attempt counts, practice is unlimited.
- Share your sky as a spoiler-free card. Beat your friends on the leaderboard.

HONEST AND LIGHT
- Plays offline. Progress saves on your device.
- Free. Optional ads only: watch one to send the Sweeper drone or double your coins.
- No account, no login, no permissions beyond the basics.

Hand-drawn pixel art, original music and sound. Built by a small studio that wanted a space game you can understand in one second and play for a month.

How long can you keep the sky open?

## Frequently asked questions about Kessler Sky

### How do you launch satellites in Kessler Sky?

In Kessler Sky, you hold your finger anywhere on the screen to choose an altitude for the satellite. Releasing your finger launches the satellite. Releasing it straight creates an orbit, while releasing it off-center creates an ellipse.

### What happens if satellites collide in Kessler Sky?

If satellites collide in Kessler Sky, they create debris. This debris continues to orbit and can shred other satellites or structures it encounters. If the debris overwhelms the sky, it leads to a game over, known as the Kessler syndrome.

### Can I play Kessler Sky offline?

Yes, Kessler Sky is designed to play offline. Your progress is saved directly on your device, allowing you to enjoy the game without an internet connection.

### Does Kessler Sky have ads?

Kessler Sky contains optional advertisements. You can choose to watch an ad to send the Sweeper drone or to double your in-game coins.

### How do I build bigger structures in Kessler Sky?

In Kessler Sky, satellites of the same type and in the same orbit will dock together to form larger structures. There are seven tiers of structures, starting from a cubesat and progressing up to the Gateway.

### What is the Kessler syndrome in Kessler Sky?

The Kessler syndrome in Kessler Sky refers to the game over state caused by excessive debris from satellite collisions. When the debris becomes too much, it leads to the closure of the sky, and it's considered the player's fault.

### Are there any daily challenges in Kessler Sky?

Yes, Kessler Sky features three daily contracts that provide a specific goal for each gameplay session. There is also a 'Daily Sky' mode where everyone receives the same satellite queue once a day for practice.

### What devices does Kessler Sky support?

Kessler Sky is available on iPhone, iPad, and iPod. It is designed for iOS devices.
