10 itemsAbout the Game
You were a normal kid living on an island. Until the island is flooded.
The sea level, which was always on the news, is now a reality.
You have two choices. You adapt to reality, you give up, you struggle to survive.
But you know. I'll choose to struggle and survive in this cruel place.
The first step. Feel me getting more confident every time I take the first step.
We are not the stars of this earth. Even at this moment, my competitors are ahead.
But you won't give up. Make supporting people with stories into supporting roles until you become the main characters.
Even if you're born with nothing, even if you live in a moment, there's definitely a meaning in this life. Unless you give up!
ABOUT THE GAME
Only go up is a game where you go up to avoid the rising water.
Each time you go up, the concept and chapter of the map change.
For example, in a two-chapter (melted Arctic), the character's friction will decrease and it will slip!
But don't worry. I'll make a checkpoint for you here.
Then, Only go up!
In addition...
This checkpoint function exists, but if you're a person who gives up easily, think twice about purchasing.
