SENTINEL — Last Star Guardian
SENTINEL is a one-thumb arcade game where you guard a dying star. Tap to emit warding pulses that shatter incoming riftshards before they breach your core. Features 4 enemy types (splitter, phantom, shielder, warper), chain combo scoring with SENTRY ranks, precision proximity bonuses, a SOLAR FLARE screen-clearing blast, and a unique RIFT STRAIN risk/reward system — destroying many enemies at once powers up your next pulse but leaves you vulnerable longer. Neon ember/orange aesthetic on deep space.

Stellar Engine · Shkadov Thruster
Steer an entire star: unfurl a statite mirror to reflect a sun's light from one side, and the imbalance thrusts the whole solar system across the galaxy — a Class-A stellar engine you can throttle.

STELLAR — Arcade à un pouce
STELLAR — un jeu arcade spatial à un pouce. Vous êtes une étoile au centre de l'univers. Tapez pour émettre une onde de choc solaire qui détruit météores, comètes et astéroïdes. Enchaînez les combos, survivez aux tempêtes solaires et battez votre record !

Ringworld
Stand on a world with no horizon: a million-mile band of land spun around a sun, its far side arcing overhead into the sky — Niven's Ringworld, a megastructure that holds three million Earths.

Soft Capture · IDSS
Trim six degrees of freedom and operate the complete IDSS Revision G capture lifecycle.

ARK // STARFALL
Command a star carrier across 30 sectors. Launch up to 12 autonomous fighters, upgrade your batteries, and defeat alien flagships in a portrait-first 3D space shooter with original music, touch controls and offline play.

GRAVWELL — Arcade One-Thumb
GRAVWELL is a one-thumb arcade game with a sharp core loop. You are the Last Singularity at the heart of a collapsing star system — tap to fire a gravity pulse that shatters orbital debris before it reaches your core. Every pulse warps spacetime: chain kills inside the warp window to charge a FREE pulse, and survive the CRUNCH. Four debris types (Shard, Bolt, Bolide, Ring), proximity scoring, chain multipliers, and a persistent local high score.

Orbit Watch
Propagate 221 dated CelesTrak OMM records locally and trace any selected orbit to Earth.

WORLDBREAKER
A portrait-first 3D planet-destruction toy: crack Earth, Mars, Jupiter and Europa with meteors, lasers, plague swarms, xeno hives and black holes while glowing GPU craters scar each world.

Gateway · Lunar Outpost
Fly a NASA reference lunar NRHO and assemble Gateway from its NASA/JSC source model.

Mars Mogul
A pixel space-tycoon saga: build EVs, AI, robots and rockets, then take your empire from Earth to orbit, the Moon, Mars — and beyond the Solar System.

Lunar Cartographer · LRO
Fly NASA's LRO model around an LRO-textured Moon and register seven measurement footprints.

LUMARA — The Last Starfarer
An interactive cinematic story about Lumara, the last survivor of a dying star civilization. She crash-lands on Earth and must evade the cosmic Voidborn hunters while forming an unlikely friendship with a human. Click through 10 beautifully illustrated scenes with particle effects, screen shake, comic SFX and a full cinematic experience.

Flyby Exchange
Route a probe past moving Jupiter and compare equal planet-frame asymptotic speed with changed Sun-frame energy.

Columbia · Apollo 11
Inspect the Smithsonian CC0 exterior digitization of Apollo 11 Command Module Columbia.

Webb · First Light
Inspect NASA's deployed JWST model and build a source-bounded first-light record.

Hubble · Service Bay
Inspect NASA's Hubble source model through a five-system servicing-bay audit.

LUMINARA · Celestial Museum
An interactive celestial museum: orbit a live canvas knowledge atlas spanning nine domains of astronomy and spaceflight, then step into 42 published worlds — Earth, Mars EDL, Enceladus plume sampling, LIGO, M87*, the ISS and more — each a focused, evidence-backed experience.

Farlight — Quiet Orbits
A meditative one-thumb space-exploration game in WebGL2, made for phones. Steer and thrust between seven procedurally-seeded worlds with shader-carved surfaces, scan each one, and fold across the system to resolve a quiet signal that has repeated the same melody for forty years. No fail states, zero assets — every planet, nebula ring and chime is generated by code.

Shuttle · Ascent
Inspect seven NASA Space Shuttle source files and replay the published STS-1 event sequence.

ISS · Orbital Workshop
Traverse NASA's International Space Station model above Earth and verify six real orbital-laboratory systems.

Warp Drive
Fold spacetime and stand still: throttle an Alcubierre warp bubble that contracts space ahead and expands it behind, crossing the galaxy at hundreds of times light speed with zero g-force.

Nova Tide
A one-thumb orbital arcade game. Tap to reverse your comet's orbit around a pulsing star, siphon gold shards to build a combo and multiplier, and graze purple void surges for risk bonuses — but touch one and it's over. Speed ramps as you weave, and it plays perfectly in portrait or landscape.

ASTROLIT
ASTROLIT is a cosmic knowledge quiz. Answer a fresh constellation of questions on every run, climb ranks from Star Cadet to Astronaut Legend, and earn a shareable canvas-rendered star card with your score, rank, and star rating. Includes a built-in question bank plus a "Forge" to author your own questions that join your personal registry.
