## What is Tilt Building?

Blocks drift above a narrow platform. Tap to drop. Land the same numbers on top of each other and they merge — 2 into 4, 4 into 8, all the way up. Every merge scores, every stack gets taller, and every tower gets more nervous than the last.

NO GRID, JUST GRAVITY
There are no snapping cells here. Every block is a real physics body: it lands, it slides, it leans, it topples. Stack carelessly and gravity does the rest.

TILT TO STEER
Your phone is the controller. Tilt to nudge a falling block left or right and slot it exactly where it needs to go. Later on the whole world starts to lean and the tower you spent two minutes building starts to sway with it.

ONE ENDLESS RUN THAT RAMPS
Difficulty climbs while you play. Blocks speed up, the aim guide fades, blocks begin to spin, and from stage 8 the ground itself tilts. No levels to grind, no lives to wait for one run, as far as you can take it.

BUILD YOUR COLLECTION
Every run pays out XP and gold. Level up to unlock platforms, block skins, colour palettes and backdrops; Grass, Timber, Bubblegum, Frost, Neon and rarer sets beyond. Milestones hand out free skin tokens as you climb.

MADE FOR ONE HAND
Portrait, one thumb, no tutorial to sit through. Pick it up for one run at a bus stop or lose an hour to it — both work.

• Real SpriteKit physics, not a tile grid
• Global all-time leaderboard through Game Center
• Play offline, anywhere
• Adjustable tilt sensitivity, or turn tilt off entirely
• Optional gem packs to speed up your collection cosmetics only, never pay-to-win

Stack it. Merge it. Try not to knock it over.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.5 — 2026-08-21

NEW BACKGROUNDS
Seven new backgrounds that react to how you play, and no two of them react to the same thing.

- Drift merges its lights when you merge blocks
- Snow Globe turns into a blizzard when you shake your phone
- Abyss flinches at every hard landing
- Neon Sprawl gets angrier the further into a run you get
- Ticker charts your score as it climbs
- Observatory turns with your tilt
- Day Cycle is simply the sky outside your window right now

All seven are in the Locker.

THE TOWER GOES HIGHER
1024 used to be the end of the line. It runs to 4096 now, with new colours in every palette so the top rungs stay easy to tell apart.


NEW TO YOU IF YOU'VE BEEN AWAY A WHILE
Casual mode. The screen becomes a box, the floor runs wall to wall and the sides catch everything. Nothing falls off, so the only way out is filling it to the top. Pick your game on the menu.

ALSO IN THIS UPDATE
- One tuned steering on every device, and it re-centres on your grip between drops
- Nixie blocks, a gas-discharge tube where the digit glows, not the body
- Fixed a crash on the results screen
- Fixed a memory problem that could close the game mid-run

### 1.0.3 — 2026-08-19

The box is open.

- Casual mode — walls on all sides, so nothing falls off the edge. Stack and merge until the box fills up.
- Shake to scatter — rattle your phone in Casual and the whole pile jumps. The harder the shake, the bigger the mess.
- Falling bonuses — coins, brushes, bombs, cushions and twins. Catch them with the same tap that drops your block.
- Remove banner ads — one purchase, gone for good. Reward videos stay entirely your choice.
- Smoother tilt — steering eases in at the start and re-centers to how you're holding the phone.
- A quick hello for first-time builders, and a simpler two-button menu.
