About the game

This is an 'XL' version of my mobile game 'Pivot'. This is one of the first games I created when I began to learn about game development. Pivot was the second entry in my minimalist arcade series. I have added/changed a variety of things to make it more suitable for the Steam platform and improved a lot of code and features based on knowledge gained since I originally made it. I have been learning to make games by making games and love creating small-yet-solid arcade games with simple mechanics. Please expect 'Pivot XL' to be a small, re-playable, arcade score-chaser game where the only basic goals are to constantly beat your previous score and unlock a handful of cosmetic skins for the character. I greatly appreciate feedback and will do my best to ensure support for my games. Please contact me through Twitter, My Website, or the forums if you encounter something wrong with the game, something misleading on the store page, or you just want to say hello.

Thank you for taking a moment to read this; I really hope you enjoy playing my game.

Pivot your character within the screens borders as you barely avoid obstacles, collect points, and smash helpful power-ups. Try to survive as long as you can!



Simply pressing the pivot button allows you to begin spinning in the flipped direction. Easy one button control with a Gamepad/Controller, Keyboard, or mouse.



  • Easy to learn, simple controls on keyboard, controller or mouse
  • An endless, fast paced and challenging arcade style game play that constantly gets harder
  • Unlock a handful of unique cosmetic skins for your player, including ones from other Nickervision Studios games
  • 'Close Call' system that awards extra points for close calls with obstacles.
  • Steam Achievements, Leader board, and Trading cards (coming soon)! (with emoticons & profile wallpapers)
  • Steam Cloud Support
  • Perfect for playing a round while in Queue for another game :)
  • The in game audio/SFX was provided by my mouth making noises into a crumby consumer mic and some royalty free SFX from FreeSFX.
  • In game song is meHiLove's - "All Night Long"
