Barely Massive

Have you ever been so hungry you could eat ANYTHING — a burger, a car, a spaceship, a planet... If yes, congratulations — you might just be a black hole. Just like our little friend here: barely massive, but super hungry! Take control of a tiny black hole drifting through space and devour everything smaller than you. Avoid bigger threats, grow in size, and compete with players around the world. But beware — your biggest competition might be... yourself.

About

You are a black hole. You are always evaporating. Feed, or fade. Hold anywhere to open a cone of gravity, and aim it at a world. Only what your cone grips gets swallowed — everything else keeps its momentum and slingshots past you. Every meal is a decision. Start as a MICRO hole barely bigger than a moon. Devour enough and you become STELLAR, then SUPERMASSIVE, then a QUASAR, and eventually a SINGULARITY with a galaxy in your throat. THE WHOLE UNIVERSE IS FOOD • 240 procedurally-built galaxies, opening with the real ones — Andromeda, Sombrero, Whirlpool, Pinwheel, the Magellanic Clouds • Dive from deep space into a galaxy, from a galaxy into a star system • Real stellar classes, binary and trinary stars, asteroid belts, ringed gas giants THE CATCH • Hawking evaporation is a clock that never stops, and it gets hungrier the longer you survive • Gas giants are too big until the system starts collapsing — pull one early and it hurts • Antimatter annihilates you, but only if you drag it in yourself • Rival holes hunt the same worlds. One bigger than you will end your run if you touch it • Your gravity runs on a charge meter, so you have to pulse the pull, not hold it WHEN A SYSTEM DIES Devour enough worlds and the stars destabilise — then everything is edible at once and the whole system comes apart in your gravity. Swallow the stars to consume the system. Take 60% of a galaxy and its core opens up. CHASE • Chain combos for stacking meals • Cores, accretion disks and permanent upgrades bought with orbs • Quests, a daily streak, and a Codex logging every galaxy you have devoured • Game Center leaderboard for total mass devoured • Share your run as a card No account. No sign-in. Plays offline. Orbee is our own hand-drawn mascot — every line of code and every pixel of art here is original. Hold. Aim. Devour.
