About the Game

You play as the last functional robot of your kind. Equipped only with your grappling hook, you will have to overcome the obstacles of a dying world and reach the summit. Remember : The higher you go, the greater the fall !

Rusty Heights is an experimental 2D platformer meant for hardcore players and speedrunners. It is playable with the mouse only and is made of a single very high level to be climbed without ever falling down. Get ready for a very challenging experience and great replayability thanks to the world leaderboard and the shareable ghost demo files !

Be brave little robot ! Every fall will only make you stronger !
