Ruck

About

Ruck is a vertical platformer where you climb a procedurally generated tower to grab a golden relic. You jump, dodge, and survive waves of enemies and environmental hazards that get tougher the higher you go. Each floor introduces new obstacles like spikes, rolling boulders, or swarms of attackers. The controls are responsive but unforgiving, forcing you to balance speed and precision. The tower feels like a chaotic gauntlet that shifts with every attempt. While the art is minimalist, the tension of near misses and sudden deaths keeps things engaging. With no checkpoints and a focus on raw skill, it leans into the genre's trial-and-error appeal. The lack of extra modes or story might turn some off but fans of punishing platformers will find satisfaction in each climb.
