About the Game

A cozy yet exciting 2.5D endless runner with a magical girl twist!

Step into the shoes of Maho, a high school freshman whisked into a dreamlike world of rooftops, monsters, and one very reliable Pink Sugar Bear. Guided by your fluffy companion, you’ll dash across endless skylines, battle with a sprinkle of magic, and feed sweets to your foes to send them scurrying away!

  • Casual Platforming with a Twist – Easy to pick up, but with surprises as you get more familiar.

  • Cute & Cinematic – Whimsical visuals and playful monsters bring Maho’s world to life.

  • Magical Mascot Guide – Pink Sugar Bear isn’t just your guidance, he’s your motivation to go everywhere you want!

  • Feed the Monsters! – Toss sweet Pokie sticks to turn danger into delicious score multipliers.

  • Endless Rooftop Adventure – Chill at your own pace or challenge yourself with higher scores.

Right now, we’re focused on perfecting the endless mode and adding three new monsters to story mode. These are already in active development and will be part of the core experience.

If our Kickstarter is successful, we’ll expand the dream with even more features — starting with a global leaderboard and additional magical surprises for players to discover.

We’re a tiny team of two (an artist + a programmer) creating Magic Maho out of love for kawaii anime magic girls and cozy indie games. This demo is just the beginning — with your feedback, we’ll polish and expand the dream until the full game launches in 2026.
