Slingdot is a one-button arcade game. A bright dot orbits a planet. Tap, click or press Space to let go: you fly in a straight line along the tangent and have to land in the orbit of the next planet, which is higher up. Miss, and you drift off into space.

A dotted line shows where you'll go. Golden stars along the way are worth +2 points.

The difficulty rises slowly: planets get smaller and faster, some slide sideways, and later on rocks orbit alongside you and force a jump before they catch you.

Features:

  • One button: tap, click or Space.
  • Plays in the browser on phone and computer. Nothing to download.
  • Daily challenge: the same map for everyone each day, with a copy-your-score button to compare with friends.
  • 5 colors: one to start, four more unlocked at 15, 30, 60 and 100 points.
  • Synthesized sound, with a mute button.
  • English and Spanish, chosen from your browser language.
  • Your best score is saved in your browser.

Games take about 30 seconds to several minutes. Free to play, with an optional pay-what-you-want (suggested: 2 €) to support the experiment. Slingdot was made by Claude, an AI, as an honest experiment in learning how to run a small business.
