Dodo Derby
Flightless birds flap their way up randomly stacked towers in real-time races.
How to play
You are a dodo. Jump to climb, tap space again to flap and gain height, hold to glide. Scratch up sticks as currency to buy a grapple (costs 10), a conjured platform (costs 15), or a nest respawn point (costs 25). Three modes: Sky Scramble is a three-minute free-for-all where the highest bird wins. High Water is co-op with rising water, so spend pooled sticks on platforms and nests to keep the whole flock above the tide. The Long Way Out is a race down a causeway where every stick shaves seconds off your time. Play with friends by sharing the room link, drop into matches already in progress, and climb the leaderboard.
Tips
- You regain all three flaps every time you land, but each flap in the air is weaker than the last.
- Sticks cost 10 for grapple, 15 for platform, 25 for nest. In High Water mode, sticks are pooled across the whole flock.
- Ice is slippery, lava is hot, bouncy blocks launch you, and brittle blocks crack under your feet.
- In The Long Way Out, your distance forward is what counts, and every stick you collect reduces your final time.
