## What is Snapwave?

ONE TAP. PURE REFLEX. TOTAL GLORY.

Behold: a wave. It races toward a ring. You tap when they meet. That's it. That's the game. Sounds easy? WRONG. This is the hardest easy thing your thumb has ever attempted. You will learn it in four seconds and spend the rest of your natural life trying to master it.

Think you're fast? ADORABLE. Every point you score squeezes the timing window tighter. The wave learns new tricks. The beat quickens. And when a run finally destroys you (it will), the leaderboard is sitting right there, packed with strangers and so-called friends who think they're better than you. PROVE. THEM. WRONG.

TIME YOUR TAP (OR PERISH)
The wave rises from the core. Fine. Then it falls from the rim. Rude. Then it BOUNCES. Then it splits into TWINS. Then it fakes slow and LUNGES AT YOU LIKE IT HAS A PERSONAL GRUDGE. Eight wave patterns, each one announced like a boxing entrance, each one out for your streak.

CHAIN THE PERFECTS (FEEL THE POWER)
Hit dead center and the game whispers PERFECT. Chain them and the chime climbs higher, and higher, and HIGHER, until you fill the charge ring and the screen detonates! LIGHTNING! SHOCKWAVES! And then, the coolest thing a phone has ever done: the game plays YOUR OWN MELODY back at you. Yes. Every run composes its own theme song, one note per hit. You are the orchestra. The orchestra is you.

COME FOR YOUR FRIENDS (THEY DESERVE IT)
Every run posts to the Game Center leaderboard: today, this week, ALL TIME, FOREVER. Send a score challenge to a friend and ruin their afternoon! Or blast out your best with one button: I scored 98. Can you beat me? (They cannot.)

18 SKINS OF UNREASONABLE BEAUTY
Terminal green! Night blossom pink! A skin called THE EVENT HORIZON, for people who stare into the abyss and tap anyway. Every skin changes the look AND the instrument. Your game, your gorgeous, glowing, extremely loud vibe.

MISSIONS! LADDERS! TREASURE!
Three fresh missions a day! Seven career ladders raining gems, lives, and stars on you as your legend grows! The next skin is always, ALWAYS in reach.

ONE MINUTE RUNS (ONE THOUSAND MINUTE NIGHTS)
A run takes a minute. "One more run" takes until 2am. We both know this. Tap responsibly.

FORGED BY ONE HUMAN
No studio. No committee. Just one guy with a sweet mustache and a truly irresponsible number of late nights. I make small games you can learn in a moment. If Snapwave grabs you, leave a review and I will do a small victory dance, alone, in my office. The mustache will remain perfectly still. And if you want the forced ads gone forever, one tiny purchase banishes them for all eternity!

The wave is coming. The ring awaits. Your thumb was born for this.
