## What is Spacetime Sprint?

Launch a scientist across the cosmos at near light speed — and try not to slow down.

SpaceTime Sprint is a one-thumb arcade runner built on real physics. Steer left and right to weave through asteroids, black holes, and the strangest phenomena in the universe. Every hit drags you below light speed; stay clean to keep your distance climbing.

DODGE THE UNIVERSE Solar flares, pulsars, quasars, gravitational lensing, quantum tunnelling, dark matter, supernovae and more — each is its own hand-crafted set piece with its own trick to read and beat. Discover new theories as you run and they unlock in your codex.

A LAB THAT'S YOURS Between runs, explore your laboratory. Spend the Bits you collect on power-up particles, new scientists to fly, galaxy backdrops, and playful lab gadgets — tap the disco ball, the Tesla coil, Schrödinger's cat box, and more.

POWER-UP PARTICLES Stock particles like the Neutrino, Electron, Higgs Boson, Dark Matter and Antimatter, then grab them mid-run for a burst of speed, double Bits, a shield, a Bit magnet, or a clean sweep of the field.

LEARN AS YOU PLAY Every theory comes with a plain-English explainer and a literal how-to-play. Guided walk-throughs teach you the lab and the controls. It's an arcade game with a physics degree.

CHASE THE LEADERBOARD Bank your furthest Light-second distance and your biggest single-run Bit haul, and climb the boards.

FEATURES • One-thumb arcade controls — tap or tilt • Over 50 physics-themed set pieces to discover • A living lab to explore and upgrade • Collectible power-up particles • Unlockable scientists and galaxy backdrops • Practice mode for any theory you've found • Procedural music and sound, no ads, no nonsense

No account, no internet required. Just you, a scientist, and the speed of light.

### 5/5 — Wow. What a deep and fun science game.  It’s all real science!

*2026-07-04*

Some people just want to watch the world learn.  All the science is legitimate but still fun.  Well done!

### 5/5 — I feel like a physics professor!

*2014-12-25*

This game gives a wealth of knowledge about physics and space. Science is cool again thanks to this game! If only the kids today all played this game, the world would be a better place.

### 5/5 — Saved my life

*2014-09-18*

I was just an ordinary joe trudging through life with nothing going my way. I even once considered ending it all by ODing on skittles . But then someone showed me this app. Within a week of downloading it my love life had dramatically improved , my hair started to grow back and I was promoted at my job. Women everywhere smiled at me and men asked for my secret. Even the squirrel outside my yard has gotten more friendly . But the icing on the cake was when I was made lead guitarist for my acapella group.Thank you Spacetime Sprint.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2014-09-12*

Love this. Easy way to pass the time!

### 5/5 — Great Free Game

*2014-09-08*

Awesome game! Great graphical style and a very fun concept. Free play is also a huge plus.

### 5/5 — It slaps and it chops

*2014-09-08*

This is my favorite pass time since counting mile markers on the interstate. You should definitely download this game if you have a pulse or if you are awesome or if you have ever or want to date a model, a super model that is. I'd give it 10 stars if that were possible, of course how stars became a relative unit of measure is lost on me. I'd actually give it 5 Haribo Gummy bears if I had my way as they are amazing.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2014-09-07*

Cool graphics and hyper addictive game

### 5/5 — Awesome game!

*2014-09-07*

Great graphics. So much content. The scientists are awesome too!

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.5.1 — 2026-07-18

Theories now announce themselves. Hit a phenomenon for the first time and a "New Discovery" card names it mid-flight before the set piece begins.

### 2.4.32 — 2026-07-15

Earn your degrees across the universe!
• DEGREES & CHALLENGES: Every theory now has three challenges — Normal, Hard, and Hardest. Clear them to stamp Bachelors, Masters, and Doctorate diplomas and raise your IQ.
• REAL RELATIVITY: Near light speed, your time now ticks by the actual time-dilation formula — hold your speed to stretch your seconds. Watch the starfield redshift and streak as you approach the speed of light.
• SHARPER SCIENCE: Quantum Tunnelling, Wave Function Collapse, Dark Matter and more reworked so the gameplay actually matches the physics.
• Plus procedural music, a smoother guided tour, and a pile of polish.

### 2.3.31 — 2026-07-14

Earn your degrees! Every theory now has a graded Test with three tiers —
Bachelors, Masters, and Doctorate. Clear them to stamp diplomas and raise your IQ.

• Four new set pieces: Blazar, Entropy, Ergosphere, and the Holographic Principle
• Hit near light speed and the background stars now Doppler-shift and streak —
  relativity you can actually see
• Wave Function Collapse rebuilt as a true quantum superposition that collapses
  to one outcome when measured (with a brutal dual-collapse at Doctorate)
• Smoother lab animations and lots of polish and tuning

### 2.2.29 — 2026-07-11

New this update:
• Four new theories to play — The Strong Force, The Weak Force,
  Electromagnetism, and the Uncertainty Principle.
• A new interactive Chemistry Set for your lab, with a tap-to-flare flame.
• Reworked General Relativity and a livelier Supernova.
• Polished visuals across the Bohr Model, Standing Waves, and more,
  plus difficulty tuning and a smoother first-time tour.

### 2.1.28 — 2026-07-08

This update adds new theories, a fresh challenge, and lots of polish:
• Two new theories to master — the Bohr Model (shelter under the matching
  atom as colored blasts rain from the antenna) and Standing Waves
  (ride the still nodes as the resonance shifts through the spectrum).
• General Relativity, reimagined — dodge a storm of asteroids whose paths
  bend around drifting gravity wells, so where they land is hard to read.
• A new hazard out there: The Moon.
• New Diploma for your lab — hang it on the Theory Board to unlock every
  theory for practice, any time. Plus a quick "Unlock" shortcut right from
  the Theories codex.
• A smoother first-time tutorial and a cleaner jump-straight-into-play flow.
• Dozens of visual and wording touch-ups across the theories and menus.
Thanks for playing — keep sprinting!
