Downtime - Press Kit Downtime - Press KitLast updated: 22 August 2026
Downtime is a small collection of offline puzzle games for Android. I built it based on my travelling and commuting experience: on business trips and commuting to the office, most games I tried needed an online connection, or made me wait through adverts, or asked for more time to learn than the journey itself. I wanted something I could open for ten minutes and pause at any moment.
Downtime is exactly that: complete games, small size, playable with no internet connection at all, including in airplane mode. It fills the moments in between - a flight, a commute, a queue, a waiting room - with no adverts, no accounts, no sign-in, and no data collected about the player. Every game is free.
The whole app was built by me as a solo developer working with a team of AI coding agents.

Tight Fit - a classic-inspired game. Put the falling pieces of different shape fast to fit them without gaps and clear the lines. The speed increases as you play - see how deep you can get before the field fills up.
Carry On - box-pushing puzzles in the classic sokoban style, most of them from David W. Skinner's Microban set, used here with credit. Push every box onto its mark. There are 99 levels in total: the first ones take seconds, the later ones can take a while.
Orbits - move the planets to form and clear the lines. New planets arrive every turn, so you need to clear the lines before the board fills up.
All three games have objectives and medals to earn, and progress saves automatically.

All three games play in landscape as well as portrait:

33 seconds, no sound. All three games on 1.1.2, plus the library and Tight Fit's medals. Captured on an emulator from a scripted run, so it can be re-made for each release rather than re-filmed.
All screenshots, the icon and the gameplay capture on this page may be used freely in coverage of Downtime, in whole or cropped, without asking first. The Microban puzzle set is by David W. Skinner and is credited in-app on the Licences screen.
