About the Game

Go down without going down.

Fartcore is a third-person, low-poly, slightly cartoony 3D platformer about descending instead of climbing. You drop through a tall, stacked world full of moving hazards, sketchy shortcuts, and wonderfully weird situations. The challenge is blunt and addictive: control your momentum, stick clean landings, and reach the very bottom without face-planting.

 

Your toolkit: precise movement, tight jumps, and emergency micro-boosts with… questionable side effects. They’re perfect for rescuing bad angles, extending airtime, and threading impossible gaps - but every miracle save risks a small social catastrophe. The kind of “nobody heard that, right?” moment that turns a quiet descent into a memorable incident.

 

Fartcore is hard-but-fair:  No cutscenes, no filler - just a long, ridiculous descent built for speedrun routes  and the eternal “one more try.”

Bonus:  Shot Mode: Capture your greatest fails, slap some hilarious stickers on them, and share the shame with friends!

 

Your goal: overcome a fear of heights, keep your cool when things get strange, and touch the ground floor like a pro.
