About the Game

Rub, Gub, and Bub are having a rough day—they fell out of their monitor! As tiny rectangles representing the red, green, and blue parts of a pixel, they’re crucial to keeping the screen running smoothly. But now they’re lost, and the monitor’s a total mess without them. It’s up to you to guide them home!

In this fun and relaxed 2D platformer, you’ll help Rub, Gub, and Bub jump, stack, and solve puzzles to navigate their way back to their display. Each level introduces new challenges, from tricky jumps to clever puzzles, but teamwork is always the key. Switch between the three characters to combine their abilities, stack them to reach new heights, and work together to overcome every obstacle.

The game’s minimalist visuals and colorful design make it easy on the eyes, while the simple, intuitive mechanics ensure anyone can pick it up and start playing. It’s perfect for quick gaming sessions or a cozy evening spent helping these three rectangles reunite.

So, are you ready to bring the colors back to the screen and save the day? Rub, Gub, and Bub are counting on you—let’s get jumping!
