Space Waves

Space Waves is a one-button tunnel flyer: hold the mouse or your finger to send the ship upward and slide it along the ceiling, let go to drop, and thread it through a tunnel that keeps folding back on itself.

The score is simply how far down the tunnel you got. Every run starts gentle - a wide, lazy wave or two - and then the spikes, slopes and walls start arriving, and the game becomes the argument between one more run and the line you just set.

Tips for a longer run

• Hold, and ride the ceiling. The ceiling is a road, not a wall - a long hold pins you against it, which is exactly what you want through long high sections.
• Tap to cross the middle. Short presses swing the ship across the tunnel; the middle is where you buy yourself time to read the next corner.
• Look past the nose. The tunnel shows you the shape of the next corner before you reach it - read that, not the wall you are passing.
• Click through the tutorial once. It teaches ceiling control, then spikes, then slopes and walls - and every real run gets easier after you have seen it.
