In a galaxy far far away... Escape from the space. Fly away in your space ship, use the Force of the planet to accelerate. Fly away as far as you can. Can you get to the end of the space? Holding a single finger to the screen will start the Swing Maneuver if you are in range of the obstacle. When you let your finger up, the swing maneuver ends, and you continue flying forward on your journey. You can also collect gems on your flight. The gems will allow you to purchase new ships, but be warned... The primary goal is the highest altitude, swinging around to grab a gem may lead to your death! Can you identify a "safe gem grab" while flying? How to play: 1.) After you tap to start the game, you begin flying. 2.) Holding a finger on the screen will allow you to spin around the obstacle (if you are within range), and releasing allows you to continue flying forward. May the Force be with You
