SIQIL

SIQIL is a chaotic walking simulator where you're a newly hatched chick balancing on a pair of clumsy human legs. You walk with your own body via webcam, and of course you can play with mouse, keyboard, and controller too. Play solo, or better yet, bring your friends for the real chaos.

About the Game

SIQIL

"SIQIL" (from the Javanese word "sikil") means "leg" — because here, your legs are everything.

SIQIL is a physics-based online walking game about guiding a freshly hatched chick, perched on two comically unstable human legs across treacherous paths, narrow bridges, and dizzying drops. One clumsy step and you're going down... hopefully not all the way.

Inspired by the deliberate, one-step-at-a-time locomotion of games like Baby Steps — then cranked up with online multiplayer and full-body webcam motion control.

Walk With Your Own Body (Webcam Mode)

SIQIL's signature twist: put down the controller and move your character with your actual body using any webcam.

  • March your legs to take each step. Yes! it's real leg day.

  • Move your arms to steer and keep your balance.

  • Cross your arms to pause. On-screen calibration gets you playing in seconds.

Prefer buttons? Full keyboard, mouse & controller support is always there — mix and match in the same lobby.

Your Step Is Your Life

A physics-driven balance system means momentum, over-reaching, and panic all send you sprawling. There's no grabbing your way out of trouble. It's just you, two unruly legs, and the will to stay upright. Master the wobble and the path is yours.

Customize Your Chicken & Legs

Customize your chick across multiple cosmetic slots : Head, Face, Shell, Legs, and Accessories. You can unlock all of the cosmetics in-game as you go and picking up some egg on the route.

Online Multiplayer Party

  • Jump into online lobbies with friends via Steam.

  • Race to the finish, mess with each other, or just vibe and waddle along.

⚠️ A Word Before You Step Out

SIQIL is intentionally hard. Every step is a fragile negotiation with gravity, and falling is part of the deal — sometimes all the way down. This is a game about patience, tiny victories, and laughing at your own wipeouts.

If you love a genuine challenge (and the chaos of failing with friends), you'll feel right at home. If you're looking for a relaxed, casual stroll, this particular path may test your patience. You have been warned — the finish is worth it. 🐣🦵
