Today's run
One station a day, and the exact same run for everyone, so you can compete with friends. Your first finished run is the one that counts. Fly it again after that for practice.
Draw them in. Keep them apart.
Ships drop out of hyperspace from every edge. Drag a line from each one to the dock of its color, and don't let any two touch. The longer you last, the busier the sky gets.
Not out yet. Coming to iPhone, iPad and Android. Free with ads, or $1.99 once to turn them off. No account.
How it plays
Touch a ship, draw its way in
Your line rounds itself off to what that ship can actually fly, so a big freighter swings wide and a little probe cuts tight. When the line will land, it glows and the dock flashes.
Match the color
Red freighters take the long bay, yellow probes take the short pad, blue shuttles take the ring. A ship only lands where you sent it, so flying over a dock does nothing.
Don't let two touch
One crash ends the run. A yellow ring shows up when two ships get close, and it flashes red right before they hit, so you always see it coming.
It gets busier the longer you last
Traffic levels
Every 45 seconds the traffic level goes up. More ships, sooner, and a little faster.
Priority ships
Some ships show up with a gold ring that drains. Dock one before it runs out for three extra points.
Docks that swap
On some stations only one dock of a color is open at a time. When they swap, the blast doors shut on whoever was headed there.
Close calls
Pull two ships apart after the warning goes red and you get a point for it.
Five stations
Each one orbits a real place, and each one is harder than the last. Get bronze on a station to open the next.
Planitia Yards
Over Mars
Every fleet starts somewhere.
Wolf Picket
Wolf 359, a red dwarf
A quiet red star. Keep it that way.
Tau Ceti Watch
Tau Ceti
Somebody's sun is getting dimmer.
Eridani Crossroads
40 Eridani, a triple star
The locals talk in music.
Replicant Yard
Epsilon Eridani
Every ship here swears it's the original.
Bronze, silver and gold on every station. Gold takes a while.
Cadet mode
Slower ships and more room between them, with its own best scores and medals. Good while you're learning the ropes. A medal in either mode opens the next station.
How it pays for itself
- Free to play, with ads. Never in the middle of a run.
- At most one ad after a run ends, never after your first run, and no more than one every three minutes.
- $1.99 once turns the ads off for good. No subscription, no coins, no energy meter.
- Works with no signal, and there is no account to make.
Questions
Is it on iPad?
Yes. It plays in landscape on iPhone, iPad, and Android phones and tablets.
Does it need internet?
No. The game runs offline. Ads need a connection, so with no signal you just don't see any.
Can I play if I am color blind?
Each color has its own ship shape and its own dock shape: long freighters go to the long bay, winged probes to the short pad, round shuttles to the ring. You can match by shape as well as color.
Is it hard?
The first minute is gentle on purpose, and Cadet mode slows everything down. After that it keeps getting harder until something crashes. That part is the game.
Who made it?
Pettigrew Lab, a small family studio. The arrows that point into each dock are there because my son couldn't find the open end on his first try.
