PULSE: Neon Reflex Arcade

Tap. Rise. Thread the gate. PULSE is a one-button neon arcade game about timing,
nerve and rhythm — nothing else to learn, everything left to master.

One tap is your whole vocabulary. Hold the beat and your orb glides; mistime it
and the neon gate closes on you. The first gates are gentle. They do not stay
gentle.

HOW TO PLAY
• Tap anywhere to rise, release to fall
• Thread every gap — each gate you pass is a point
• Collect stars to build a lifetime total
• One mistake ends the run. Start again immediately.

WHY IT PLAYS WELL
• True one-button controls — no buttons, no joystick, no menus in your way
• Reflex and rhythm together: gates arrive on the beat, so you can feel the
timing before you see it
• Difficulty that ramps instead of spiking, tuned by hand rather than generated
• Three difficulty settings — Easy, Normal and Hard — so the game grows with you
• A run takes seconds, which makes it a perfect one-more-try game

NEON BY DESIGN
Every frame is drawn live: glowing orb trails, blooming gates, beat rings that
pulse with the music. No stock art, no clutter, no timers telling you to come
back tomorrow.
