Oopstacles

Oopstacles is best described as “Wipeout meets Mario.” It’s a ragdoll runner for all ages, with quirky avatars and padded obstacles reminiscent of TV shows like Wipeout, MXC and Slime Cup!

With Oopstacles, I wanted to do things differently to other runners out there - I found the 3-lane, 4-direction swipe style had been overdone. I wanted to design something with beautifully simple controls, but elegance and depth to the gameplay. So, I created a single lane, one-touch control system that anyone could pick up and play with ease. Jumps, rolls and other contextual animations occur automatically at trigger points. It relies on the player’s timing, dexterity and ability to read upcoming visual patterns. For replayability, timing and order is randomised and different on each play. For challenge, the further the player gets, the faster and denser the obstacles get!

Help the captured creatures dodge their doom in the ultimate obstacle course!

What makes my game unique?

Oopstacles doesn't use the stale and boring 3-lane, 4-directional swipe that has been overdone so many times. We use a single lane, one-touch control system that anyone can pick up and play with ease! Jumps, rolls and other contextual animations occur automatically at trigger points. Gameplay is all about player timing, dexterity and the ability to read upcoming visual patterns. Beautifully simple controls, but elegance and depth to the gameplay!
