A casual one-tap hopper for the moments you need a moment. Drift a soft simple sphere along floating iso tiles, settle into the rhythm of your own tap, and let the soft wellness skies do the rest.

Your breath sets the pace. Relief stress. WELLNESS THEMES Pick the mood that fits the moment. Wake up with Morning Mist, unwind into Sunset Calm, drift through Cherry Blossom, lose yourself in Starlight Sky. Every theme repaints the entire world, sky, tile, sphere, dust motes, so the same chain of hops feels new each time. DESIGNED TO CHILL Soft pastel gradients. Slow drifting colour matching particles in the sky. An ambient soundtrack picked for breathing along to. No timers, no enemies, no fail screens shouting at you. Falling resets your score and slides you back to the start tile in one quiet breath. GO PRO Five themes are included free.
