VOLTA — une étincelle, un pouce
VOLTA est un jeu d'arcade à un seul pouce : une étincelle file dans un conduit magnétique et il suffit de tapoter n'importe où pour inverser la polarité et changer de paroi. Boucle limpide (lire l'ergot, taper, esquiver, aspirer les étincelles dorées pour monter le multiplicateur ×8), vitesse qui escalade, orbes balayeurs, score record sauvegardé. Il fonctionne à l'identique en portrait (montée verticale) et en paysage, entièrement sans build.
DEFLECTRA
DEFLECTRA — a sharp one-thumb arcade defender. Block the cyan shards with your shield, but let the red cinders through. One input, two opposite instincts: tap or drag anywhere to spin your shield around the core, land last-second blocks for PARRY bonuses, and charge a SURGE that widens your shield to three facets.
EMBERWICK
EMBERWICK is a one-thumb, gravity-flip arcade game. Tap to slide a living ember between the hearth floor and the cold ceiling, threading slats with a gap — skim an edge for a RISK bonus, chain a combo, and chase your best. Warm lantern art, WebAudio synth, heavy slow-mo juice, and adaptive physics so it plays identically in portrait and landscape.
PULSAR
PULSAR is a one-thumb cosmic arcade game — you're the heart of a dying star. Tap to fire a shockwave that shatters the rift-shards converging on your core, chain kills to multiply your score, and grab power-ups to outrun the collapse before your shield breaks.

Feux Follets
Feux Follets — un jeu d'arcade à un pouce. Votre esprit de feu tourne autour d'une lanterne ; touchez au bon moment pour bondir vers la suivante. Enchaînez les frappes « Éclat » parfaites pour faire grimper votre multiplicateur, et visez les lanternes dorées (×5).

Embermoth
Embermoth is a one-thumb arcade game: tap to leap a moth outward through three lantern rings, gathering embers for combo while rotating flame-gates close in. Landing markers on every ring ahead turn gold, pale or red so you can read which ring is safe at your exact angle — every run is a single, sharp timing call.

POLARITY
POLARITY is a one-thumb arcade game: a spark rides one of two charged rails, and a single tap anywhere snaps it to the other. Flux blocks never fill both rails at once, so the real skill is timing — swap at the last possible instant to trigger a SURGE dodge that multiplies your score, or play it safe and score almost nothing. Built with pure Canvas + WebAudio, no dependencies.
AUREOLE
A one-thumb star arcade. Tap anywhere to unleash a halo of fire that burns incoming debris — the closer you let it get before you flare, the more it's worth, but touch your core and the star goes dark. Ships with greedy combo multipliers, escalating enemy types, Overcharge flares, and juicy screen-shake feedback.
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.
Flourish Matthew110
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.
Un jeu arcade à un pouce avec une boucle claire
ÉCLIPSE est un jeu d'arcade à un pouce : autour d'une étoile qui s'éteint, un seul geste — toucher l'écran pour sauter d'une orbite à l'autre — suffit à se glisser entre les arcs d'ombre. Les éclats valent double sur l'orbite extérieure (risque/récompense) et tous les huit déclenchent un «Éclat» qui pulvérise les murs. Boucle nette : survis, accélère, enchaîne les combos, et relance en moins de deux secondes.

ARCLIGHT — One Ember, One Arc
A one-thumb arcade game with a razor-sharp core loop: you are a single ember at the centre of the dark, and a crescent of light orbits you endlessly. Tap anywhere to flip the arc's spin and place it in the path of every incoming beam — one input, endless escalation, chain catches to trigger a slow-motion SURGE. Includes a shareable canvas-rendered score card.
Polar Juniper100
EMBERHOLD
EMBERHOLD is a one-thumb arcade game: you guard a central ember with a single arc of light that never stops orbiting it. Your only action is a tap that reverses the shield's spin, so you must sweep it across incoming crystal shards before they hit. Every deflect builds a chain that raises your score multiplier — and thins your light into a needle, so playing well is what makes it hard. Gold flares are the greedy bonus; three embers and you're out.

PULSAR
PULSAR is a one-thumb neon orbit dodge: tap to swap your spark across the core, re-timing every single move to dodge incoming comets and sliding sweep-spears while harvesting stars to build a combo multiplier. A sharp, readable risk/reward loop with juicy feedback, a persistent high score, and under-2s restarts.
Olive Island100
Stunt Wheels
Physics stunt driving: gas, reverse, and don't bonk your noggin. 16 hand-built courses of gaps, seesaws, breakable bridges and boulders on a tiny Verlet engine — every level machine-solved and verified beatable.

GYRE — One Arc, One Thumb
GYRE is a one-thumb arcade game with a single verb: tap anywhere to reverse the orbit of your glowing shield arc and sweep incoming fragments aside. Build combos with centred PERFECT blocks, grab rare gold ember shards to repair your core, and survive an abyssal storm that escalates on three difficulty curves. Pure canvas, no build step — one thumb, portrait or landscape.

Glowtide
Glowtide is a one-thumb bioluminescent survival game: hold anywhere to rise, release to sink through a scrolling abyssal trench. Your glow is your life — eat golden light-motes to stay lit, chain them for score multipliers, and graze coral to recharge. Dying is only ever one bad tap away, so chase your best depth.
ASCUA — Enciende la noche
ASCUA es un arcade de un solo toque: mantén pulsado para hacer ascender tu brasa por un cañón nocturno, devora brasas, encadena combos y activa el FUEGO SALVAJE (modo invencible azul). Un toque para subir, soltar para caer. Gráficos de partículas con bloom, cueva procedural infinita y dificultad creciente; jugable en móvil y escritorio.
EMBERCORE
Un jeu d'arcade à un pouce : tu es le bouclier d'un cœur de braise. Tape pour inverser ton orbite, bloque les éclats d'obsidienne et laisse filer les braises dorées qui le nourrissent. Boucle limpide, combo à entretenir, tout s'accélère.

Solstice — One-Thumb Orbit Arcade
Solstice is a one-thumb arcade game: HOLD to dive toward a swelling star, RELEASE to drift back out. Sweep up golden photons to build a combo, thread past drifting shards, and keep your orbit trapped between the sun's rising heat and the empty void. One gesture, escalating pressure, instant restarts.
Prince Vasava70
TWINSTAR
TWINSTAR is a one-thumb arcade game with a razor-sharp hook: two glowing orbs share a single orbit, locked 180° apart, and one tap reverses both at once. Thread past crimson shards that form, burn, then dissolve while harvesting gold glints to build a chain — and the whole orbit keeps accelerating toward a two-second lap. Touch-first, plays in portrait or landscape, with synthesized sound, screen shake, particles and locally-saved best score.
Shady Odao70
Lumen Drift
A one-thumb arcade dive: hold anywhere to rise, release to sink, and thread a darkening bioluminescent trench. Gather glowing plankton to build a combo multiplier before it decays, graze jellyfish for bonus points, and grab pearls for a shield. Scores persist locally, runs restart instantly.

GYRE
GYRE is a one-thumb arcade game: tap to swap between two concentric orbital lanes and thread rotating coral barriers around a pulsing core. Skim plankton to stack a combo multiplier, dodge at the last instant for 'close' bonus points, and chase your best score — learn it in two seconds, die in ten, restart instantly. Playable in portrait and landscape with synthesized sound and full touch controls.
