Capsule Hero
This is a minimalist challenge game based on a physics engine. Players control a capsule-shaped character, keep balance on a narrow wooden board, and rely on skills and patience to gradually walk out of the dark room. Every step is a challenge, and every failure will bring great frustration.

6 itemsAbout the Game
This game is like gambling. Players are always in a situation of success and loss. As I said before, there is no save file in the whole process. If it is broken, you need to start from the beginning, and everything will become the most original. It pays tribute to "I am Egg" Capsule Hero is a third-person physics challenge game that focuses on balance and operating skills. You will play a capsule-shaped character, slowly moving forward, jumping, and maintaining balance on an extremely narrow wooden structure. There is no convenient way, only gravity, inertia, failure, and trying again and again.

• Simple operation, deep challenge
All operations can be completed using the WASD keys on the keyboard, but it is not easy to control. You must always adjust the character's posture to avoid falling.

The game uses a real physics engine to simulate the character's movement and balance state. Every action may change your fate.
• No archive, no fault tolerance
Failure means starting over. The game has no automatic save and no checkpoint system. Every success is the result of persistence.
