## What is NIGHTMILE?

The rain never stops. The city never sleeps. You never lift.

NIGHTMILE is a one-thumb endless drift racer through a neon-drowned midnight city. Drag anywhere to steer. Hold a second finger to dump nitro. Everything else is reaction time.

SLIDE TO SURVIVE
Traffic comes fast and it does not move for you. Thread the gaps for near-miss bonuses, hold a drift to bank points, and watch the nitro meter fill three ways at once: off the slide, off every gap you thread, and off clean fast driving. The further you commit, the harder you can boost out. Combos stack while you keep it clean and collapse the moment you don't.

The longer you survive, the faster the whole city gets. There is no finish line, only your last number.

BUILD THE CAR
Take your cut back to the garage. Paint finishes from Crimson to Pearl White, neon underglow, rim colours and drift trails, every one of them visible on the car in the showroom and out on the street. Then spend where it counts: three performance tracks (top speed, nitro power, drift charge) with five levels each, and every level is a real change to how the car drives, not a number on a card.

TWO MORE WAYS TO DRIVE
The VESPER-9 is a full works build of the hero chassis: gold livery kit, accent hood inlay, and its own signature Vesper Ion paint bundled in. The NIGHTBLADE is an aero hypercar with its own silhouette, ultraviolet accents and the Phantom Ink finish. We tell you exactly what you're getting.

RUN THE NIGHT CIRCUIT
Chase your weekly, monthly and all-time bests against a ladder of ghost rivals. Climb four prestige tiers (Bronze Ghost, Silver Spectre, Gold Phantom, Neon Legend) and settle the week for a fixed, previewed payout. No servers, no waiting, no connection required.

DAILY WORK
Three missions live at a time, re-dealt every night, and a seven-day login streak that climbs every day you come back. Claim it, spend it, go again.

PICK YOUR STATION
Four fully procedural soundtracks: Midnight FM classic synthwave, the warm cruise of Sunset Drive, the heavy floor of Bassline District, and Ghost Signal's ambient echoes. Every note is generated live. Nothing is streamed.

BUILT FOR YOUR PHONE
Portrait. One thumb. No tutorial to sit through. Graphics quality adapts to your device, or pin it yourself: High, Balanced, or Battery.

PLAYS ANYWHERE
No account. No sign-up. No connection. Every run works on a plane, on the subway, in a lift. Your progress lives on your device.

ACCESSIBILITY
Reduced Motion damps camera shake and stops all flashing and pulsing effects. It turns itself on automatically if you already use Reduce Motion in iOS.

Free to play, with optional in-app purchases. No loot boxes. No mystery crates. Every item shows exactly what it costs and exactly what you get, before you buy.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.0.2 — 2026-09-18

BRIGHTNESS: a new slider in Settings. Hold it and the sheet clears, so you watch the lobby change under your thumb.

DIRECT STEERING: the car now follows your thumb and stops where it stops. Prefer the original wheel? Settings > STEERING > CLASSIC brings it back.

The graphics tiers now know the iPhone 17 family and the new A20 phones by name, so the first run starts at the right resolution.

Built with the iOS 27 SDK.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-09-03

Performance patch. Your reviews pointed straight at the problems, thank you.

• Black flashes at the start of a run and during nitro are gone. One bad pixel in the tire trails was poisoning the glow pass.
• Frame rate: the game now recognises your iPhone on first launch, starts on the right graphics tier and keeps tuning itself while you drive.
• Menus and the results screen no longer burn GPU time behind the race.
• BATTERY quality keeps the neon glow, and the street stays asphalt instead of turning red.
• Cleaner launch: no grey gap between the splash and the title.
• New rims on the car.

Still stuttering? Settings > GRAPHICS QUALITY > BALANCED or BATTERY, and tell us your iPhone model through the support page. Every report gets read.

### 1.0.0 — 2026-09-02

No release notes.
