    This Space Board is live. Refresh the page and a new #1 shows up here.

    How it works

    Play Space Swoosh in Open Space, and go as far as you can. The distance shows up when you die. It is not on the Space Board until you publish it.

    The Mission Failed screen, with Publish Score under the distance. That button logs the run on the Space Board.
    When you die, tap Publish Score.

    Anyone can play, from anywhere. I don’t need a video of the run. If you’re ahead, tag me and tell me your call sign. I look the score up before I send the $50 or unlock any ships.

    1. Play Open Space and go as far as you can.
    2. When you die, tap Publish Score. That logs the distance on the Space Board.
    3. Play again if you want. Publish each run you want counted. I keep the best distance you published on those dates.
    4. Open Space Board and stay on Distance. Only scores published inside the dates count.
    5. If you’re ahead, tag me and say your call sign.

    Where to play Space Swoosh

    What counts

    Three things, all of them. You played Open Space. You steered with Zigzag. You tapped Publish Score, so the distance is actually on the Space Board.

    Arc scores don’t count. Obstacle scores don’t count. Journey progress doesn’t count. A score sent before 15 October 2026 at 00:00, or after 31 October 2026 at 23:59, Bucharest time, doesn’t count either. That includes a big one already stuck on the board from before.

    Fly any ship you already have. Buying another one doesn’t move you up.

    Prizes

    #1 gets $50, sent by Revolut or a similar transfer. #2 tells me any 2 ships to unlock, free. #3 tells me any 1 ship to unlock, free. I check the top score before I pay or unlock anything. The result goes up on 1 November 2026.

    Questions

    Does it cost anything?

    No. You don’t pay to enter. A ship you bought doesn’t help you place. The free ships are the prize for #2 and #3, after I check the scores.

    Which mode and score count?

    Open Space, steered with Zigzag. I look at distance, the number on the Distance tab of the Space Board. Arc runs, obstacle scores, and Journey days don’t count.

    Can I try more than once?

    Yes. Fly as many as you want. Tap Publish Score on each run you want counted. I keep the highest Zigzag distance you published from 15 through 31 October 2026.

    Do old scores count?

    No. If it was submitted before 15 October 2026 at 00:00, or after 31 October 2026 at 23:59, Bucharest time, it doesn’t count. That includes scores already sitting on the board.

    Can I use different ships?

    Yes. Any ship you can already fly. Which one you pick doesn’t change who wins.

    Who can take part?

    Anyone, from anywhere.

    What happens in a tie?

    Same distance: the score that reached my server first wins. I use the time the server recorded, not who says they finished first.

    How do I know where I stand?

    Open Space Board in the game and stay on Distance. Your row is the distance you submitted. For the $50 I only count rows submitted from 15 October through 31 October, Bucharest time. An older score above you doesn’t take the prize.

    How will you check the winner?

    I look up the longest Zigzag distance that was actually submitted inside those dates. You don’t need to record the run. Bots, modified clients, made-up scores, and automated capture runs are out. If the person in front doesn’t check out, I look at the next score the same way.

    How does the winner get the prize?

    Tag me and say your call sign. If the score checks out, I send #1 $50 by Revolut or something similar. #2 and #3 tell me which ships to unlock. I announce it on 1 November 2026.
