About This Game

How did you get up here in the sky? Nobody knows. Who is that guy with the hat? Nobody knows. Practice hard and learn how to master the skies in this skill based runner game. Look in front of you and use the slopes to gain more speed. Get to the flag as fast as possible.

JUST ANOTHER RUNNER GAME… What? No!

• Physics are great. The runner rolls, jumps and sticks to the road, and every slope is speed if you take it right
  
• Speed is dynamic. You can reach extremely high speeds, and the better you run the faster you get
  
• Four keys are the whole control scheme. Keyboard or gamepad
  
• Minimalistic graphics, meditative playing
  
• Use your brain: puzzle elements in some levels
  
• 7 chapters, 80 hand-built levels. Can you get to the end?
  
• 7 wide treasure worlds and 37 pack levels beyond the chapters, packed with mushi
  
• Great to speedrun. Play the levels over and over again, there is always a way to get more speed and improve your best time

RACE THE WORLD

Every level has a world best-times board. Watch the replay behind any time on it, run against its ghost, take the top spot, and dare the next player to take it back. Anyone else playing the same level shows up live as a ghost. No lobby, no chat, just company on the road.

BATTLES

Publish a level as a battle and every player who runs it during the window races for the fastest time and a share of the mushi pot. Fresh level, blind window, one winner.

FIND ALL THE MUSHI

Mushi are hidden along the roads and off the racing line. They are very useful to have for various reasons: spend them on hats, magical cloaks, shoes that create dust and full costumes for your runner.

SOUNDTRACK

Guitar music soundtrack. The longer you run, the more layers of the music you get. Put on your headphones!

LEVEL EDITOR

Skyturns comes with an in-game level editor. Every level in the game was built with it. Draw a road, ride it, and publish it straight into the game's catalog for everyone to play.

THANKS

Skyturns is inspired by a certain cult physics game from the PC era, snowboarding, mountainbiking and a decade of players on phones. Credit is where credit is due.

We made a game that we love to play ourselves. Steam Cloud carries your saves between your machines.
