About this game

Directional Sliding and Capture

The flag moves in a straight line once you choose a direction, continuing until it hits an obstacle or reaches the capture point. That single rule shapes every decision: you are not steering the flag continuously, you are committing to a vector and living with the result. Obstacles stop the flag, so they double as tools for redirecting your path. The capture point is the goal, but reaching it is only part of the puzzle — the route you take determines what you collect and what you risk.

Coins, Black Holes, and Risk

Shiny coins appear along the way, and collecting them raises your score. Black holes are scattered through each level; touching one ends your progress. These two elements pull in opposite directions. Coins often sit near hazards, so the highest-scoring path is rarely the safest one. You have to decide whether a detour is worth the exposure, and because the flag keeps moving until something stops it, a careless direction choice can send you straight into a black hole. Planning ahead matters more than reacting late.

Building and Sharing Levels

A built-in level editor lets you design your own challenges and share them with others. This extends the game well beyond its included puzzles. If a level feels too difficult, you can rebuild a simpler version to practice the timing and routing that the original demands. Sharing custom levels also means the puzzle pool grows with the community rather than staying fixed.

Controls and Desktop Focus

The game is designed for desktop play with keyboard or mouse controls, and full screen mode is available for a more focused session. Precise input matters because each direction choice is irreversible once the flag starts moving. Difficulty increases gradually, so early levels teach the movement rules before later ones combine coins, obstacles, and black holes into tighter routes.
