## What is Neon Tether?

Welcome to the grid. Neon Tether: Orbit Survival is a fast-paced, hyper-casual arcade game that will push your reflexes to the absolute limit.

You control two glowing neon orbs bound by a central tether, trapped in a continuous orbit. Your only goal? Survive the endless barrage of falling geometric obstacles. It sounds simple, but mastering the orbit requires perfect timing, split-second decision-making, and nerves of steel.

How to Play:

Tap to Reverse: A single tap instantly reverses your spin direction. Dodge left, dodge right, and thread the needle between falling shapes.

Hold to Expand: Need more space? Press and hold the screen to stretch your tether and widen your orbit. Time slows down for a fraction of a second, letting you squeeze around massive obstacles before snapping back to safety.

Collect Gems & Survive:
Risk it all to collect glowing Neon Gems that fall through the grid. High-value gems are harder to reach, forcing you to expand your orbit into the danger zone. Use your hard-earned gems to purchase game-saving power-ups mid-run:

The Shield: Activate a protective barrier to smash through the next obstacle unharmed.

The Magnet: Pull all on-screen gems directly to you without taking unnecessary risks.

Running out of gems right when you need a shield? Don't panic. Use the emergency pause feature to instantly activate a power-up and keep your high-score run alive!

Game Features:

Addictive One-Touch Controls: Easy to learn, incredibly hard to master. Perfect for quick sessions or hours of high-score chasing.

Tactical Power-Ups: Buy Shields and Magnets on the fly to survive impossible situations.

Stunning Retro Aesthetics: High-contrast neon visuals, smooth particle explosions, and a pulsing cyberpunk atmosphere.

Global Leaderboards: Log in with Game Center and compete against players worldwide to claim the top spot.

Player-Friendly Experience: Absolutely NO banner ads cluttering your screen while you play.

Test your reflexes, master the tether, and see how long you can survive the neon grid!
