Needle vs Wedge

Two ships. One heavy star. Real gravity. Needle vs Wedge brings the 1962 space duel to modern touchscreens. Fly the Needle or the Wedge, bend torpedoes through the star's gravity, and risk hyperspace when the alternative looks worse. PLAY YOUR WAY • Match with another pilot online through Game Center. • Lay one device between two players for face-to-face local play. • Fight ten AI levels, from target practice to machine-speed reflexes. • Build a custom match or choose limited and unlimited supply rules. A LIVING SKY The battlefield passes through 904 real stars from NASA's Bright Star Catalog. Orion, Cassiopeia, the Southern Cross, Scorpius, and other familiar constellations drift through the background in their factual positions. MAKE IT YOURS The optional Store contains cosmetic hulls, torpedoes, and gravity wells. Cosmetics change the look of a match, never its rules or outcome. The complete game is free to play, with no third-party ads or ad networks. The title screen may preview cosmetics available in the game's own Store. GAME CENTER Earn 24 achievements, post online victories to the Online Wins leaderboard, and take your ship online. Core local and AI play does not require Game Center. ACCESSIBILITY Menus and the cosmetic Store support VoiceOver. Reduce Motion freezes decorative movement, and Reduce Transparency adds solid contrast without changing the simulation.
