Riposte
A sharp one-thumb arcade game: you are the glowing core, and every tap fires a single expanding pulse ring. Time the ring's radius to shatter incoming shards — let bulwarks drift deep before the ring is strong enough, snap streaks while they're still close, or wait for one big ring to clear a whole cluster. Chained kills build a combo multiplier; letting a shard reach your core costs a charge. Survive the escalating spawn waves.

LumenKeeper
LumenKeeper is a one-thumb orbital arcade game where a comet orbits a fading core — tap to reverse its orbit, collect the scattered starlight to feed the core, and build a combo chain while dodging crimson shards. Orbit speed rises with every gem, so each chain is a gamble between gathering more light and losing it all.

TEMPO RING
TEMPO RING is a one-thumb precision-timing arcade game. A luminous ring spins as a teal target arc sweeps past a fixed golden marker — tap on the exact beat to strike, chain a combo, and outpace an endless difficulty ramp. Packed with shockwaves, screen punch, a rising synth score, and a persistent best.

Comet Parry
A one-thumb arcade timing game. Tap to fire a parry ring at the exact moment its edge shatters an incoming comet before it strikes your core. Catch a star close to the core for a PERFECT shatter that builds a FLARE combo multiplier — survive as long as you can. Plays identically in portrait and landscape, with synthesized audio and zero install.

Embertide
Embertide is a one-thumb arcade survival loop. Press and hold to charge a shockwave, release it to sweep the cold spirits away from your ember core before they reach its heart. Bigger charges clear wider waves, but every pulse builds heat and holding leaves you defenceless — fight for your high score across an escalating tide.

PULSEVAULT — One-Thumb Pulse Defense
PULSEVAULT is a one-thumb pulse-defense arcade game. Void shards converge on your star core — tap to fire a pulse ring that vaporizes them, and tap on the golden beat for a HYPER pulse with double power and double score. Chain multi-kills to build your combo multiplier; three hits breach the vault.

Stormkeep
Stormkeep is a one-thumb timing arcade: you're the keeper of the last lighthouse in a storm. Ships sail in across three lanes — tap when one meets your beam to light it past the reef. Perfect timing chains combos and multipliers; whiffs and wrecks punish careless thumbs, and the storm only gets faster. Best score is saved and restarts are instant.

Octane Rush
A one-thumb fast-fill arcade at a retro gas station. Customers roll into the bay with a target fuel amount — hold the nozzle to pour, then release at exactly the line to land PERFECT fills and chain combos. Precision earns points and combos, but hesitate and the customer drives off. This is a clean canvas game with juice, escalating difficulty, and a saved best score.

Lantern Drift
Release paper lanterns into a night river when the current is clear and watch them float away.

Paper Duelist
Read directional brush telegraphs, swipe guards and counter-cut through eight paper rivals.

A one-thumb arcade game with a sharp core loop
KINDLING — a one-thumb arcade game of pure timing. Your wisp orbits a lantern while a glowing gate arc sweeps around it; tap right as you cross the arc to leap to the next lantern. Land dead-centre for a PERFECT chain, and keep 3 embers alive as speed and difficulty ramp up across a long, hushed night.

Emberline
Emberline is a one-thumb precision arcade timer: tap to stop a rising ember inside a glowing heat band that shrinks and speeds up with every hit. Chained strikes stack combo multipliers, while a miss or letting it escape burns a life. Full juice — particles, screen shake, hit-stop, synthesized audio, and a persistent best score.

EMBERRISE
A sharp one-thumb arcade game. You're a glowing ember threading a winding tunnel through a dark nebula — hold to surge up with the opening, release to sink, and stay inside as the channel twists and narrows. Skim a wall to score a risky GRAZE that pays big but resets your streak multiplier. Grab sparks, chase the ×4 multiplier, and see how long the ramping nexus lets you last.

ORBWEAVER
ORBWEAVER is a one-thumb arcade timing game. Tap to weave your glowing vessel between two orbiting rings — catch embers on your lane, dodge crimson thorns, and stack a risky combo multiplier as the orbit accelerates and the field of thorns thickens.

SYNC
A one-thumb reflex arcade: tap anywhere to stop a glowing gauge needle inside the green band, and hit the tiny gold core for a PERFECT lock that flips you into Overcharge, doubling your points. Escalating speed, a shrinking target, combo multipliers, and three lives — instant retry, built for portrait and landscape.

NOVA PULSE
A one-thumb timing arcade game. You are the heart of a dying star — tap to fire a pulse wave that shatters incoming shards, but a wave only travels so far and you can't fire again until it's spent. Read the deep, fast shards, clear the cluster, chain combos, and keep your core alive against an accelerating storm.

Ember Orbit
Ember Orbit is a one-thumb arcade game of pure angular timing. Your ember comet circles a molten core, and each tap instantly reverses its orbit. Grab the scattered light to charge a flare that clears the whole ring, dodge the fire spikes, survive the lap-speed ramp, and chase your best score — all with one thumb and no drag.

Shadow Relay
Perform three lantern acts by matching pose, color, tempo, and mid-scene paired transformations.

PULSEBREAKER
A one-thumb arcade reflex game. Shards converge on your energy core — tap to fire a pulse the instant they enter range. The closer you let a shard get before firing, the bigger the score, but one miscalculation costs a core. Chain combos for bigger payoffs, and chase your best.

EMBERGRAZE
EMBERGRAZE is a one-thumb arcade game: an ember comet orbits a reactor core while laser blades sweep across your track. Tap to reverse direction, thread between the blades, and graze them to build combo and ignite an invulnerable flare. Speed ramps relentlessly and your best score is saved. Works on touch and desktop, portrait and landscape.

PULSAR
A one-thumb neon relay game: tap as the pulse cursor sweeps across the glowing node to recharge a core that is constantly leaking power. Landing perfect hits chains a combo that shrinks the node and multiplies your score, so every run sharpens the timing. Miss the node and your combo drops; drain the core and it collapses. Your best run is saved locally and you can restart in a single tap.

Signal Dock
Tap the matching dock exactly as signal pulses cross the capture line.

Giltline: Deep Claim
Commit a swinging survey winch, manage live cable tension, and push a cumulative claim run from eight authored contracts into endless generated levels.

PERIGEE
A one-thumb arcade game with a razor-sharp core loop. Tap to fire your probe straight through the star and land dead opposite — so you must lead the rotating gap and thread it on arrival. Land in the gap to survive, dead-centre for triple; clip the ring and the run is over. The gap breathes, reverses direction, and tightens as your chain climbs.
