Ring Breaker

Fly around a deadly central cannon and thread your shots through three spinning rings to crack it open.

How to play

A cannon at the center is wrapped in three counter-rotating rings of armor. Pilot your ship around it, time your shots so a gap in all three rings lines up, and punch through to destroy the core while dodging its return fire.

• Rotate around the central cannon and manage your thrust
• Watch the three rotating rings for a clear firing line
• Blast through aligned gaps to reach the core
• Avoid the cannon's shots and debris

Controls

• Desktop: Left / Right to turn, Up to thrust, Space to fire
• Phone & tablet: keyboard recommended for precise timing

Tips & strategy

• Hold position and wait for the rings to align rather than firing constantly
• Use short thrust taps to orbit instead of drifting into the cannon
• Keep moving after a hit so the core's counterfire misses

Origins

Ring Breaker draws on the barrier shooters of the early 1980s — circle a central cannon ringed by rotating shields and try to blast a clean gap through every layer to destroy it, all while dodging its aimed fire. A test of timing against a spinning fortress.
