ARCADE / GAP GLIDER
Gap Glider
Tap (or Space/Up) to rise · gravity pulls you back down
Gap Glider gives you 30 gates to clear. Tap to rise; gravity pulls you back down when you wait. Every run's gaps, widths, and horizontal spacing come from a fresh seed, and the second half includes gates that move up and down. A safe pass adds steady score; skimming an edge builds a near-miss chain, while a comfortable pass or crash resets it. Clear gate 30 to finish the run, or end it by touching a gate or drifting off the top or bottom of the screen. The result shows your score, gates, and peak near-miss chain. Retry the same seed to replay that course, or choose a new seed for a fresh run.
How to play
Rules
Clear all 30 gates without touching one or drifting off the top/bottom of the screen. Score is a base amount per gate passed, boosted when you pass close to a gate's edge (a near miss).
Controls
Tap (or press Space/Up) to rise. Do nothing and gravity pulls you back down. That is the entire control scheme, on desktop and mobile alike.
Tips
A near-miss chain keeps paying off the longer you sustain it, but a comfortable center pass resets it to zero — decide each gate whether to play it safe or press the edge for score.
Behind the game
Gap Glider is built around the smallest possible flight control: one tap gives lift, and doing nothing lets gravity write the rest of the curve. That simplicity makes every gate readable at a glance. The challenge is not a hidden control trick but judging how much height to buy now, how long to coast, and where the glider will be when the opening reaches it. Thirty gates give the run a clear destination, so a clean finish is satisfying even before score enters the picture.
Score changes the meaning of a clean line. Passing through the middle is reliable and earns a steady base reward. Passing close to an edge is a near miss, which extends a chain and raises its payoff. This is deliberately a choice, not a requirement: a comfortable gate resets the near-miss chain without ending the run, while clipping a wall or leaving the top or bottom ends it outright. When a chain is already high, the narrow line can be tempting; when a difficult moving gate is ahead, sacrificing it for control may be the smarter play. The result screen preserves the score, gates passed, and best chain, making that decision visible after each attempt.
Gate height, width, and spacing come from a seed. The same seed can be replayed to turn an awkward course into a practice route, while a fresh seed supplies a new sequence. The latter half introduces gates that shift vertically, so the initial tap-and-coast rhythm becomes a prediction problem. The game feels like threading a paper aircraft through a changing wind tunnel: calm inputs produce a smooth path, but the pursuit of one more edge skim can turn that calm into a memorable save or a sudden crash.
