About

Spinbound Blast

Features
Read full description

Build a moving system of moons. Then break it apart, one orbit at a time. Spinbound Blast is a touch-controlled arcade puzzle game where timing matters. Hold anywhere in the playfield to load a moon, then release to send it into orbit. Find a gap between the moons already moving. Once the formation is complete, your cannon changes: aim and fire at the outermost orbit, then work your way inward. 30 HANDCRAFTED LEVELS Start with a single, slow-moving ring and progress to layered formations, mirrored patterns, Fibonacci sequences, and mixed-speed orbits. Each level has its own rhythm to learn. HOLD, AIM, RELEASE Hold longer to reveal the aiming beam. Release quickly for an unaimed-shot bonus during clearing, chain correct hits into combos, or drag to the cancel control to discard a held shot. You have three lives to get it right. CONTROL THE PACE Hold the fast-forward control to accelerate the action. Later levels add moving Sputnik craft to shoot for bonus points. MAKE EVERY RUN COUNT Clear levels to unlock the next challenge and earn up to three badges. Improve your score and completion time, with separate Game Center leaderboards for every level. Game Center is optional; you can play without signing in. BUILT FOR iPHONE AND iPAD Enjoy native touch controls, animated orbital artwork, sound effects, and haptic feedback on supported devices. Free to play. No ads. No in-app purchases.
