Steam Store description

Pivot your character within the screen’s borders, narrowly dodging obstacles, collecting points, and smashing power-ups. Survive as long as possible in this fast-paced, minimalist arcade experience, the second game in my three-part series. Press the pivot button to start spinning in the opposite direction. Simple one-button controls make it easy to pick up but hard to master. Play with a gamepad, keyboard, or mouse for seamless input. Easy to learn, hard to master – Simple controls, deep challenge Endless score-chasing action – The game speeds up over time Unlockable skins – Includes characters from other Adamvision Studios games ‘Close Call’ system – Earn bonus points for near misses Leaderboards & Steam Achievements – Compete for the top score globally Steam Cloud support – Sync progress across devices Steam Trading Cards – Includes profile wallpapers & emoticons Perfect for quick sessions – Great for playing while waiting in queue Simple yet unique sound design – Audio SFX created using my own voice + royalty-free sounds Pivot XL is a small, replayable arcade score-chaser designed for fast, high-intensity gameplay. As the second game in my minimalist arcade series, it builds on my original mobile game ‘Pivot’ with refined mechanics and PC-optimized features. I love crafting simple, polished arcade games and truly value player feedback. If you find a bug, have suggestions, or just want to say hello, reach out via Discord or my website . Thanks for playing! Adam Nickerson - Adamvision Studios SOUNDTRACK "All Night Long" by meHiLove

System requirements

Minimum requirements

Minimum: OS *: Windows 7 (possibly xp as well, no promises) Processor: Dual Core+ Memory: 2 GB RAM Graphics: 512MB+ Storage: 500 MB available space Additional Notes: It's possible Pivot XL uses less resources than that weird old Windows screensaver with the flying winged toasters. Man, I should really read about that, what the heck was that all about?

Recommended requirements

Recommended: OS: Windows 10 Processor: I bet if they made a 5 core processor it would be really weird, but could run this game well. Memory: 4 GB RAM Graphics: GeForce GTX 1070 (Pivot XL has one less effect than Bing Bong XL, so you don't need all that 1080 power anymore) Storage: 502 MB available space Sound Card: Will I hit my second wind on writing (clever?!) sound card details? There's only one way to know…
