About

The game is a sidescrolling racing game where the players use grappling hooks to navigate. In this race, the players have to stay ahead of each other to get the others out of the screen. Last one on the screen wins. When a player is removed, he’s reborn as a jinx, to ensure that the remaining players remember him.

The game was developed for the Dare to be Digital competition. The game was aimed at the XBLIG market, and won the Dare to be Digital 2010 competition, the ProtoPlay Audience Award and also the BAFTA Ones to Watch Award 2011. The game was developed during 10 weeks with 5 members of the “That Game Studio” team.
