One tap. An endless galaxy. Your ship orbits a star. Tap the screen and it launches along the tangent: aim well and the next star captures you into a new orbit. Miss, and you drift into the void. That's it — easy to learn, brutally hard to master. TODAY'S CONSTELLATION Every day brings a new constellation, identical for every player in the world. Same route, same traps, same chances: all that matters is how far you fly. Climb the daily leaderboard and see which ship the pilots ahead of you are flying. LEVEL UP • 100 levels, from Stardust all the way to Apogeo: games, duels, achievements and missions all give you experience. • Three missions a day, growing with your level. • Eight skies that unlock as you level up: pick yours from the menu. SHIPS WITH POWERS 17 ships, each with its own strengths and a weakness across six factors: lives, speed, control, thrust, magnet and beacon. They unlock as you level up, and the later they come, the stronger they are. Compare them in the hangar and pick yours. 1v1 CHALLENGES Send a duel to a friend: same constellation for both, each with their own ship. The longest flight wins. MASTER THE FLIGHT • Perfect release: grab the golden power-up and, while it lasts, launch lined up with the star. Your combo climbs up to Ɨ10 and multiplies your distance. • Route beacon: grab it to see the trajectory of your next three launches. • Emergency thrust: fire it while you're falling, to save yourself. • Magnet: bends your course on its own toward the star you were about to miss. • Cold stars: decoys that never catch you. Don't trust everything that shines. AND MORE • 61 achievements to unlock. • Add friends by their code and challenge them. • Plays offline too: your run sends itself once you're back online. • On iPhone, iPad and iPhone Duo, open or closed. • One finger, short sessions, instant restarts. No sign-up needed to fly today's constellation. With an account you level up, unlock ships and skies, add friends and send challenges. How far will you fly today?
