Unexpectedly released with love ❤️ from the ARCtic conference in Oulu, Finland. Thanks to everyone that played the game and encouraged me to push the button.

Built for every player
VoiceOver, Cues, and Haptics
RetroRapid supports VoiceOver and pairs spoken feedback with sound cues and haptics, so you always know where you are, even during the fastest runs.
Play your way
Control the game your way with the Digital Crown, taps, swipes, or keyboard. Game controller support is coming soon. You can also tune settings such as font choice and sound effects volume.
Adaptive Interface by Default
RetroRapid respects how you like your screen. Dynamic Type, Dark Mode, and both portrait and landscape orientations are all supported, so the game adapts to your preferences, not the other way around.
Why RetroRapid!?
RetroRapid is built around three things: nostalgia, accessibility, and native Apple platform craft. It started as a side project years ago, got its final push from the ARCtic Conference community, and shipped because people were having fun right away. The goal is simple: quick runs, fair challenge, and a game that more people can enjoy.
