Hold, Release, Fly
A fast space action game built around a single gesture: hook a black hole, orbit it and sling yourself toward the next one while time slows near the horizon.
HOLD TO HOOK
- Hold your finger down and your ship hooks the black hole in range and starts to orbit it.
- The longer you hold, the tighter the orbit and the more slingshot energy you store.
RELEASE TO FLING
- Let go and your ship shoots off along the tangent with all the energy you stored.
- A light aim assist nudges you toward the next black hole.
GRAZE THE HORIZON
- The closer you get to the event horizon, the more your multiplier climbs: ×2, ×5 and ×10.
- Time slows near a black hole, and a close graze just outside the horizon pays a big bonus.
CHAIN IT UP
- Every slingshot grows your chain, and a longer chain raises your score multiplier.
- Keep moving: the collapse wall rising from behind never lets you stop.
Why Event Horizon?
Fast, tense and gorgeous: glowing accretion discs, stars that bend around black holes, a deep hum that rises as you near the horizon and short runs that make you want one more try.
HAZARDS OF SPACE
- Asteroid streams, meteor showers, solar flare rings, pulsar beams, binary and drifting black holes, white holes, quasar storms and a dark matter fog.
- Hop on a comet for a short burst of hyperspeed and invulnerability!
RANKS AND MISSIONS
- Your score turns into XP: 50 ranks across 10 titles, from Rookie Pilot to Horizon Walker.
- 3 missions at a time and 27 achievements.
HANGAR
- 10 ship hulls, 8 trail colors and 4 accretion disc themes unlock as you play.
- Launch options: Shield, Dash, Focus and Overdrive.
DAILY RUN
- Everyone flies the same universe each day, and your daily best score is kept separately.
