About

Hulse

Features
Read full description

Hulse is a one-tap reflex game distilled to its purest form. A needle sweeps a bright dial. A green arc waits somewhere on the track. Tap the instant the needle's tip crosses it โ€” a tight, dead-center tap scores PERFECT; a mistime, or letting the needle sweep past, ends the run. One tap is the whole game. Mastering it is not. โ€ข Chain hits to build a combo and multiply your score. โ€ข Fill the meter with perfects to ignite FEVER โ€” the dial turns gold and points double. โ€ข Past a certain score, a hit can reverse the sweep direction and test your reflexes the other way. โ€ข Milestone shockwaves, a bullet-time dip on every PERFECT, and a fully synthesized sound layer โ€” every blip generated live. Optional background music, off by default. โ€ข Four unlockable needle themes, three difficulty modes, a daily challenge with a rotating twist, and a lifetime stats screen. โ€ข Climb a worldwide leaderboard through Game Center โ€” all-time and weekly. Optional; the whole game still plays offline. โ€ข No timers. No app account, no sign-up. Play free, forever โ€” every run, unlimited. โ€ข The only ad is one you choose: end a great run and you can watch a short clip to revive and keep going. Never forced, never between rounds, no banners. Your best score lives on your device. Pick it up for ten seconds or ten minutes.
