7 itemsAbout the Game
This is not a casual game. The controls are difficult, the physics are difficult and everything will try to drive you mad.
You try to steer your kayak down the river towards the goal and you do this as fast as you can! But beware of obstacles and rocks that will destroy you if you bump into them too hard!
- Use only the paddle to steer your kayak
- Don't crash into things
- Don't drop your camp gear (sleeping bag)
- Pick up camp gear after you dropped it
- Paddling requires stamina
- Stamina recharges when you don't use the paddle
TWO MODES:
CHALLENGE -> A carefully built obstacle course that has to be completed as fast as possible
RIVER CLEANUP -> Collect as much trash as you can before you crash into too many rocks and die
