About the Game

CRABRUN is a grid based action game where you play as a very hungry crab.

Master disorienting controls and stay aware of your surroundings to find your niche in a single screen ecosystem. Collect fish, dodge projectiles, and use the environment to your advantage to survive and thrive. Inspired by score chasing classics and infused with modern speed, a simple set of mechanics fills every moment with tension.

Prepare yourself for run after run of flow-inducing challenge, whether your goal is to survive as long as possible, catch as many fish as you can, or chase the highest score!

Features

  • Earn your sea legs! Walking sideways is harder than it looks—it may take some time to adapt.

  • Survive long enough to claim victory or continue in an even tougher endless mode.

  • Enjoy colorful pixel art, mesmerizing background visuals, and soothing synths.

  • Compete on global leaderboards and view detailed individual stats.
