The broadcast has gone off air. The screen is pure static — and it's yours to take back. OFF AIR is a retro arcade territory game inspired by the golden age of the arcades. Carve lines across the screen to claim territory while ghosts patrol the static and sparks race along your borders. Claim 75% of the screen to clear each level — but get caught mid-draw and you lose a life. FEATURES - 20 handcrafted levels, each faster and meaner than the last - 5 enemy types: ghosts that roam the static, sparks that hunt the edges, glitch blocks, interference rings and the dreaded signal eater - Power-ups: grab a shield or slow time when things get desperate - Earn bonus lives as you push deeper into the broadcast - Crisp retro visuals with real animated static, scanlines and chunky pixels - Original bleep-bloop sound effects - Local high scores and automatic level progress — pick up where you left off - Works fully offline, anywhere FAIR PRICING The first 4 levels are free. One small one-time purchase unlocks all 20 levels forever. No ads. No subscriptions. No energy timers. The way arcade games used to be. Can you reach level 20 and end the final broadcast?
