Dialshift
Launches 5 November 2026 · PC · Indie, Arcade
Dialshift is a single-player score-attack arcade game played on a circular dial. Players control a continuously moving cursor with two directional inputs and time hit attempts against targets while maintaining combos and Stability. Seven modes vary the rules with directional targets, forced reversals, sustained holds, and multi-hit targets. Each mode has its own scores, ranks, and leaderboard.
Story
ONE RING. TWO DIRECTIONS. NO BRAKES. Your cursor never stops. You choose clockwise or counterclockwise. Every input changes your direction and counts as a hit attempt. Land it, keep your combo, and protect your Stability. Miss, and watch everything fall apart. EVERY HIT CHANGES WHAT COMES NEXT. Timing alone will not save you. A clean hit can set up the next target. A panic turn can leave you stranded across the ring. Read the whole dial, choose your route, and stay in control as the speed climbs. SEVEN MODES. TWO BUTTONS. Classic: Pure timing. Extreme: No warmup. Flow: Follow the direction. Switch: Every hit reverses you. Hold: Stay locked through the arc. Pulse: Break the target one hit at a time. Ultimate: Everything at once. Good luck. JUST ONE MORE RUN. I SWEAR! Each mode has its own scores, ranks, and online leaderboard. Chase perfect hits, keep ridiculous combos alive, earn Steam achievements, and fight your way to S+. Miss. Reset. Countdown. This one will be clean.
