About

Needle Gap

Features
Read full description

Needle Gap is a clean one-tap arcade puzzle about timing, focus, and tiny openings. Tap to launch each pin into the rotating core. Every level asks you to read the motion, find the gap, and thread the needle without touching the pins already fixed to the circle. The rules are simple, but each stage adds more pressure through tighter spaces, faster motion, direction changes, and shifting rhythms. Play through 50 offline levels designed to grow steadily harder. Early stages teach the timing. Later stages test patience, precision, and quick decisions. Features: - 50 progressively harder single-player levels - One-tap controls built for quick sessions - Level select with local progress storage - Star ratings for clean clears - Minimal black-and-white visual style - Original built-in music and sound effects - Music and sound toggles - Fully offline: no login, no network, no ads, no in-app purchases Needle Gap is made for players who enjoy small, focused challenges where one clean tap can make the difference.

About

Ringo

Features
Read full description

Ringo is a one-tap timing and reflex game: launch balls into a spinning wheel. Watch the wheel, wait for the gap to line up and tap at exactly the right moment. Hit another ball, a steel bar or an obstacle and the attempt is over. A 101-LEVEL CAMPAIGN Every level has its own rhythm: wheels that speed up, spins that reverse after each hit, gates that open and close, sockets you fill in order, two- and three-ring wheels and moving bars. When a rule shows up for the first time, a short lesson explains it, and the levels that follow let you master it. FOUR GAME MODES • Levels: work through the campaign and earn gold in every level. • Endless: see how many balls you can fit on a single wheel. • Stopwatch: place as many balls as you can in the shortest time. • Time Gain: every hit adds extra time to the clock. SET YOUR OWN PACE Choose Easy, Medium or Hard. If a level keeps beating you, help arrives: an aim hint, a slower wheel or the option to try it on Easy. Retries replay the same layout, so every attempt teaches you something for the next one. ABILITIES Get through tough moments with Slow, Shield, Anchor, Clear, Aim and Freeze. Spend gold on abilities and ball skins. RECORDS Your Endless, Stopwatch and Time Gain records are kept separately for assisted and unassisted runs. Set a record and a celebration is waiting for you. A clean interface, eight languages, light and dark themes, plus vibration and sound settings. The wheel is spinning. Can you catch the gap?
