About the Game

The crystal of challenge and perseverance!

"Up & Over" offers a simple yet powerful experience. Players must reach the summit exploring the sky-high structures with only jumps and WASD manipulations. Players must master the environment and overcome mistakes through strategic decisions.

Key Features

  • Physical-based movement

    the movement of characters is based on realistic laws of physics, and every mistake can be fatal.

  • Limited checkpoint usage

    Each checkpoint can be used up to three times. Activating a new checkpoint initializes the number of previous checkpoints available. Strategic use is the key to success.

  • Vertical Exploration

    The game is played by climbing over a huge aerial island structure. Each level consists of a unique design and difficulty, and if you make a mistake, you may fall down and have to start all over again.

  • Choose Risk and Reward

    Once you have exhausted all your checkpoints, you must either go back or choose whether to proceed at risk.

  • Visual Attraction

    Beautiful and mysterious aerial islands set in the background, each level filled with the scenery and structures you want to explore.

Game Play Mechanism

  • Jump and WASD operation

Players move their characters with simple manipulations, and must overcome the slopes and obstacles of their environment. Proceed with pure control without parkour.

  • Checkpoint system

    • Each level has a number of checkpoints.

    • You can return to the checkpoint by pressing R, but there are three usage restrictions per checkpoint.

    • Activating a new checkpoint initializes the number of previous checkpoints available.

  • Risks and Rewards

Players can use checkpoints efficiently by reducing mistakes, or take on excessive challenges to pursue greater rewards.

  • Drop Penalty

If you miss a scaffold or make a mistake, you can fall under a structure. However, the opportunity to find a path again is always open.
