About the Game

"Do you truly believe you're lucky?"

A chance granted by a higher power.

Don't Push Your Luck is a third-person platformer that combines precision-based control with a ruthless system of chance.

Climb the towering ruins of civilization, gather resources, and break through the barriers of probability to reach the top.

One mistake—one stroke of bad luck—can send you all the way back down.

A Climber Challenging Fate

You’ve been invited to a proving ground designed for those who claim to be “lucky.”

Simple jumps and parkour won’t be enough.

To survive here, skill is essential—but in the moments that matter most, you’ll need to prove your luck.

A Vertical Journey Through Time

Begin at the bottom in a primitive age and ascend through ancient, medieval, and modern eras—

all the way to a futuristic pinnacle.

Each stage features distinct visual themes and increasingly unforgiving terrain, pushing your limits as you climb.

Ruthless Machines of Chance

Throughout each stage, you’ll encounter devices that determine your fate—slot machines, coin flips, and more.

Wager the resources you’ve gathered.

Will luck carry you forward to the next era, or will you lose everything and fall back to the bottom?

The choice is yours.

Risk Management and Strategy

Don’t rely on luck alone.

At the start of each stage, shops offer ways to improve your odds or unlock shortcuts.

But be careful—earning enough resources means taking on even greater risks.
