About the Game

 You just want to get home after work, but the stairs are closed and you're too claustrophobic for the elevator. Using a plank gun to build your way up the outside wall, you’ll face a stressful vertical adventure that will test your patience and your nerves.
Beat the in-game timer and get upstairs before the coffee gets cold — Speedrunners , your challenge awaits.

You choose your own route to the top, and since there are multiple ways to climb the building, every run feels like a different adventure. But you have to pick your spots carefully—not every wall will take a plank, and your supply is limited. Keep your focus, manage your planks, and move fast. One missed shot leaves you stuck; one missed step sends you all the way down.



As if the height wasn't enough, the skyscraper itself feels like it’s trying to throw you off. You’ll have to dodge rogue drones, leaking steam pipes, live electrical currents, and an aggressive boss throwing garbage at you. Watch out for the heavy winds that test your balance, and whatever you do, do not touch the bird nests—mess with their "sensitive eggs," and a whole flock will hunt you down. Figure out how to bypass these obstacles, or enjoy the long drop.

Checkpoints are incredibly rare. One bad shot or a sudden gust of wind can instantly wipe out twenty minutes of perfect climbing. It’s brutal, and you will lose progress. But you’ll still hit retry. Because your last plank was this close, because someone is waiting for you at the top, and you are finally ready to get home.
