About the Game

A pain worse than death is being sent back to the start.

Solar is a precision platformer heavily inspired by the amazing Smilemo. Pay close attention, survive countless traps, and reach the finish line.

Key Features

Unforgiving Traps: Watch your step! Hitting a trap won't just stop you—it will violently launch you backward, tearing away your hard-earned progress.

Precise Wall Jumps & Slides: Master your momentum to survive. Hug a wall mid-air to slide and briefly slow your fall (keep an eye on your stamina gauge!). From there, leap away with a swift Wall Jump. Need more distance? Hold the jump button to launch yourself higher and farther across deadly gaps.

The "Rewind" Gamble: Made a fatal mistake? Hit Rewind to turn back time! But beware: this will send you to a completely random point within your last 10 seconds of gameplay. You might land safely on a platform, or you might spawn mid-air right as you're getting launched by a trap. It’s a high-stakes roll of the dice to save your run!
