A downloadable game for Windows and Android

PC build does not represent the final version. It has different resolution than my target resolution. However game is perfectly playable on PC.

Flappy Rocket is a fast, challenging arcade game where you guide a rocket through tight gaps between obstacles. Sounds familiar?

Not so fast - here, gravity changes every 8 points.

Each gravity shift is clearly telegraphed: 

• a pulsing UI, 

• a three-step warning (yellow → orange → red), 

• and an arrow showing the direction and exact value of the upcoming gravity.

When you hit the threshold, there’s a brief delay (so the game doesn’t kill you instantly), and then the physics flip. Sometimes the rocket feels weightless. Sometimes it drops like a brick. The thrust strength adapts to each gravity level, keeping the game playable — but never predictable.

Features:

  • Simple tap-to-fly controls
  • Dynamic, randomized gravity every 8 points
  • Dynamic speed scaling
  • Clear visual warnings and pulsing UI
  • Flash effect when gravity changes
  • Procedurally generated ground with seamless tiling
  • Minimalist pixel-art look

It’s all about rhythm, adaptation, and that stubborn “one more try” feeling. Can you keep control while the world keeps changing the rules?
