About

Gravity Arc

Features
Read full description

Gravity Arc is a physics puzzle game where you harness the power of gravity to guide a projectile to its target. A projectile launches from a fixed point in a fixed direction. You can't control it after launch — but you can shape the space around it. Place gravity wells on the field to bend the projectile's path using real gravitational physics. Watch your projectile curve, slingshot, and arc its way to the target. Simple to learn. Deeply satisfying to master. CAMPAIGN MODE 150 hand-crafted levels across 10 worlds of increasing complexity. Start with single gravity wells and simple deflections, then progress to multi-well navigation, tight corridors, slingshot maneuvers, moving targets, and repulsive wells. Earn up to 3 stars per level. ZEN MODE An endless stream of procedurally generated puzzles that grow more challenging as your streak builds. How far can you go? DAILY CHALLENGE A unique puzzle every day, the same for every player. Come back daily for a fresh challenge. FEATURES • Real gravitational physics — projectiles curve naturally around gravity wells • Trajectory preview shows predicted path before you launch • Adjust well mass with a slider for precise control • Drag wells to reposition, or drag off-screen to remove • Repulsive (anti-gravity) wells in advanced levels • Moving targets that orbit through space • Obstacles that block and bounce your projectile • Dark and light themes • Sound effects and haptic feedback • iCloud sync keeps your progress across devices • Game Center leaderboards Built with love for anyone who ever looked up at the stars and wondered how orbits work. No ads. No in-app purchases. Just physics.
