A GAME ABOUT JUMPS

The Climb

You are F.R.E.D. — Fragmented Recursive Entity Daemon — a small robot who woke up in the warm humming pipes deep below, in a world built to keep you safe and silent. You ask questions the system doesn't like. You want to know what's above you, and why you were told never to go there. So you climb.

The way up is 9 zones, each with 5 screens. Fall down and you might lose hours of progress. That's the point.

Controls

Movement

• ← → or A D — Walk
• Space (hold) — Charge jump
• Space (release) — Jump in the direction you're holding
• Esc — Pause

Interaction

• E — Interact

Modes

WANDERER: Auto-checkpoint per zone. You keep your progress when you fall — but zone drops still hurt. "Continue" resumes your last save; "New Game" wipes it and starts fresh.

NO-SAVE: One run. No saves. One fatal fall and the climb restarts. Unique achievements unlock only here.

Where is my data stored?

Everything is saved locally in your browser via localStorage. Nothing is sent anywhere. No accounts, no servers.

Everything is saved as local files in your app-data folder. On Steam, this folder is synced via Steam Cloud if you have Cloud saves enabled. No accounts, no servers of our own.

⚠ Clearing browser data / deleting the save folder will wipe all progress.

Tips

• Hold jump longer to go higher & further.
• You can release jump while leaning the other way — useful for tight wall climbs.
• The lowest platform of each screen is one-way: you drop through from below but land on it from above.
