Play a round

  1. Start the round and watch the moving marker circle the play field toward the current target.
  2. Tap, click, or press the action key when the marker overlaps the target zone.
  3. A clean hit adds to the score and produces another target; a miss removes one of three lives.
  4. Keep landing accurate hits as the timing changes and protect the final life for the longest run.

Strategy for this version

  • Track the marker rhythm for a full orbit when a new speed feels unfamiliar instead of spending a life on a rushed tap.
  • Aim for the center of the target rather than its leading edge to leave room for small reaction-time errors.
  • Keep your eyes on the target and use peripheral vision to follow the marker as it approaches.
  • After a speed change, reset your timing expectation; repeating the previous interval is the most common avoidable miss.
