Rainbow trail from a circle

Rainbow trail from a circle turns simple movement into a visual spectacle. As you guide the luminous orb through each level, it leaves behind a vivid, multicolored ribbon that twists and loops through space. The challenge lies in navigating tight corridors and unexpected barriers without breaking the trail's flow, which tests both your reflexes and your spatial awareness. The game's minimalist aesthetic hides a deceptively deep mechanic: every turn matters, and a single mistake can send your carefully crafted path into chaos. With each level introducing new obstacles and trickier layouts, you'll find yourself drawn into a state of focused calm, aiming for the perfect run. The satisfying feedback of a clean pass and the mesmerizing patterns you create make every session feel rewarding, whether you're playing for a few minutes or longer.
